Fire Department Procurement
Procurement monitors all purchases under
$25,500.00 and directs those that are over the
same. Any purchases over $25,000.00 must be
approved by the City Manager. Purchases
$50,000.00 and above must go before The City of
Miami Commission for approval. The Procurement
section prepares the paperwork for purchases and
oversees the bidding process through fruition.
Once approved by the Commission, procurement
confirms that the requisitions for the purchases
are made and addresses any problems that may
occur during this process. This Section monitors
all of Fire-Rescue’s contracts and keeps their
current status in check.
Quality Management
The Officers in Quality Management (QM) monitor
the Emergency Medical Alarms that Fire-Rescue
units respond to during the year. Auditing
alarms, ensuring protocol is followed, and
assisting in prosecuting criminal and civil
cases are some of the responsibilities of this
Unit. Training is given to the Officers on an as
- needed basis. QM also attends meetings with
area hospitals and acts as a liaison for issues
that will have an affect on hospitals and/or
Fire-Rescue.
Payroll
Payroll handles the daily recording of time use,
anniversary and longevity raises, promotions,
job changes, and other related issues. This
section ensures that the employees of the
Department receive their paychecks in a timely
manner. |
