3-Contract Estimate.pdf

This is a contract estimate document for Hillsborough County, Florida's sole source procurement with Huber Technology, Inc. for proprietary parts, maintenance, and installation services. The contract covers continued support for existing Huber equipment currently in operation, specifically two belt screen units (EscaMax 500x952x3.5), two screening wash press units (WAP 2), and two rotary screw press units (RotoMat Schneckenpresse Q-Press 800). The procurement is effective from the contract approval date through January 31, 2031, representing a multi-year service agreement. The procurement is being conducted as a sole source award in accordance with Section 3-205(2)(e) of the County's Procurement Policy, as Huber Technology, Inc. is the original equipment manufacturer and the only reasonably known representative capable of providing the required proprietary parts and services. Contractors believing they can provide substantially and materially equivalent goods or services may submit challenges to this intended award by the close date of the sole source project through the EUNA Procurement system (formerly Bonfire).

The total contract cost is $636,810.00, comprising one initial equipment cost of $500,000.00, labor costs totaling $79,560.00 (537 hours at $130.00 per hour, plus 50 additional hours at $195.00 per hour for specialized work), five yearly service fees at $9,450.00 each totaling $47,250.00, and one additional equipment or service cost of $10,000.00. The County reserves the right to extend the contract term beyond January 31, 2031, adjust the scope of services in response to changing operational conditions and updated requirements, and increase the award amount accordingly. Properly submitted challenges will be reviewed by the County to determine whether bona fide competition exists prior to final award.
