GEC GENERAL INFORMATION

Glades Electric Cooperative provides power to over 18,000 accounts over 2,600 miles of line in portions of Glades, Hendry, Highlands, and Okeechobee counties. We are based in Moore Haven, Florida with an additional office in Lake Placid. The Cooperative was formed as a corporation in the state of Florida in 1940, and in 1944 was recognized by the Internal Revenue Service as being federal income exempt tax under section 101(10) of the Revenue Act of 1939 (now section 501 (c) (12) of the Internal Revenue Code). GEC is a distribution cooperative and does not generate its own electricity. GEC purchases wholesale electricity from Seminole Electric Cooperative headquartered in Tampa, Florida.

Today, GEC maintains a highly respected position within its local community, and within the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association, for its dedication to reliable electric service and forward-thinking initiatives.

GEC and its representatives have exercised due care in preparing this Request for Proposal (RFP). All information contained herein is believed to be substantially correct. However, bidders should verify information independently if desired. GEC and its representatives do not warrant the accuracy of information contained herein.

SCOPE OF SERVICES:

Objective: Due to the very active 2024 Hurricane season that Florida experienced which caused a constraint on contractor availability, GEC is seeking additional contracts ahead of the 2025 season.

3. The prospective lower tier participant shall provide immediate written notice to the person to which this proposal is submitted if at any time the prospective lower tier participant learns that its certification was erroneous when submitted or had become erroneous by reason of changed circumstances.

2. I understand that a “public entity crime” as defined in Paragraph 287.133(1)(g), Florida Statutes, means a violation of any state or federal law by a person with respect to and directly related to the transaction of business with any public entity or with an agency or political subdivision of any other state or of the United States, including, but not limited to, any bid or contract for goods or services to be provided to any public entity or an agency or political subdivision of any other state or of the United States and involving antitrust, fraud, theft, bribery, collusion, racketeering, conspiracy, or material misrepresentation.

(Attach a copy of the final order).

I UNDERSTAND THAT THE SUBMISSION OF THIS FORM TO THE CONTRACTING OFFICER FOR THE PUBLIC ENTITY IN PARAGRAPH ONE (1) ABOVE IS FOR THAT PUBLIC ENTITY ONLY AND, THAT THIS FORM IS VALID THROUGH DECEMBER 31 OF THE CALENDAR YEAR IN WHICH IT IS FILED.
