About this file

This is a procurement preferences form from the Office of Economic and Small Business Development for Broward County, Florida, establishing eligibility criteria for Small Business Enterprises (SBEs) and County Business Enterprises (CBEs) participating in a Roofing and Waterproofing Consultant Services solicitation. The Broward County Facilities Management Division seeks a qualified firm to provide comprehensive roofing and waterproofing services, including building envelope assessments, inventory of facility components, identification of repair needs, development of specifications and construction documents, solicitation assistance, and construction administration and monitoring services for County facilities. The scope encompasses roofs, walls, storefronts, doors, and window systems across County properties. The solicitation is governed by the Consultants' Competitive Negotiation Act under Florida Statutes Section 287.055 and requires vendors to submit responses electronically through the Bonfire BPRO platform, with questions or clarifications due by a specified deadline and responses provided by the County through the BPRO Messages section.

For certified SBEs or CBEs on non-reserved solicitations without assigned CBE goals, procurement preferences are available under Broward County Code Section 1-81.10. For Invitations to Bid and Quotation Requests, a certified CBE or SBE within ten percent of the lowest responsive, responsible bid may match that bid for award consideration. For Request for Proposals, a responsive, responsible SBE or CBE proposer scoring within five percent of the highest-ranked non-certified proposer's score shall be considered the highest-ranked proposer and given opportunity to proceed to contract negotiations. Vendor certification status must be verified in the Broward County OESBD Certified Firm Directory, and vendors must be certified at the time of solicitation opening. Vendors should indicate their SBE and/or CBE certification status on the submittal form.
