Officials said the school district has been pleased with the company's work.
LUDLOW - The School Committee has approved awarding a one-year contract to Management Solution of Auburn to serve as the business manager for the school district.
The vote to award the contract was 5 to 0.
The school district received only one bid for the position.
The School Committee voted to award the contract and then to negotiate the amount of the award.
Management Solution bid about $92,000 for the one-year contract, School Committee member James P. Harrington said.
In addition to Management Solution, Darlene Cincone serves as assistant school business manager.
Cincone is paid $60,000, and she supervises transportation for the school district and building and grounds as well as serving as assistant business manager.
Todd Gazda, who will take over as school superintendent in July, recommended that the School Committee award a one-year contract to Management Solution which has been doing the business manager job for the school district in recent years.
Gazda said the school district has been pleased with the company’s work.
Harrington said that if Gazda wants to change companies or hire a full-time business manager in a year, he can make that recommendation to the School Committee.
“The school district has been happy with Management Solution,” Harrington said.
