What the buyer needs
AI summaryThe City of Wentzville seeks proposals from qualified firms for occupational health and post-offer employment testing services, divided into two separately awardable scopes. Scope A covers post-offer employment testing, functional capacity assessments, standards reviews, and legal support, while Scope B covers occupational medicine, physical examinations, drug and alcohol testing, workers' compensation, and nursing services.
