About this file
This Addendum No. 1 to Invitation to Bid (ITB) 25260015B-TL, issued by The School Board of Seminole County Florida Purchasing and Distribution Services Department, provides clarifications and modifications to the Fire Sprinkler Inspections and Repairs solicitation. The solicitation seeks a qualified contractor to provide inspection, testing, maintenance, and repair services for fire sprinkler systems across Seminole County Public Schools facilities in compliance with Florida Statute 633. The ITB opening date and deadline for submissions is August 14, 2025 at 12:00 P.M. EST, with submissions received after this date and time not accepted. The addendum addresses multiple clarifications regarding system components and inspection requirements, including confirmation that Lake Howell High School now contains five risers rather than four, and that contractors must include backflows, fire department connections (FDCs), and post-indicator valves (PIVs) in their scope, excluding only fire hydrants. Inspections must be performed at intervals required by NFPA 25 standards specific to each system in place, rather than the previously stated schedule of one annual and three quarterly inspections.
The addendum further clarifies that backflow counts include bypass backflows and notes that Idyllwilde School requires tank and pump testing and inspections as part of the water supply system for fire sprinkler operations. Vendors must acknowledge receipt of Addendum No. 1 and return the signed acknowledgment with their bid submission, or submit it separately in a sealed envelope marked appropriately if the bid was already submitted. The original ITB documents remain in full force and effect except as modified by this addendum, which takes precedence over any contrary provisions. The purchasing contact is Travis Loyd, Purchasing Agent II, at Loydtz@scps.k12.fl.us or 407-320-0375.
