The document is a Vendor Selection and Fees Form for Invitation to Negotiate (ITN) No. 25-8362 issued by Collier County, Florida's Board of County Commissioners Procurement Services Division for vending machine services. The solicitation covers three distinct zones totaling 70 vending machines located across Parks and Recreation Division facilities, with vendors able to propose services for one, two, or all three zones. The contract will span three years with potential two one-year renewal options, and services are expected to commence within 60 days of award. The ITN is scheduled to open on May 7, 2025, at 3:00 PM EST, with electronic proposal submissions required through the county's procurement portal.

Vendors must propose a minimum monthly revenue fee of $10 per machine, with the ability to specify different rates for each zone. The county historically generates approximately $55,000 in annual vending service revenue, though future patterns may vary. Proposals will be evaluated using a 100-point scoring system considering business plan, proposed county revenue, firm experience, and local vendor preference. Additional requirements include being enrolled in the E-Verify system, providing comprehensive insurance coverage, possessing current business licenses, and completing mandatory forms such as Vendor Declaration Statement and Conflict of Interest Certification. Local vendors can claim preference by submitting a Collier or Lee Business Tax receipt, and the solicitation allows for potential use by other county departments.
