About this file

This is a procurement preferences document from the Broward County Office of Economic and Small Business Development outlining eligibility criteria for Small Business Enterprises (SBEs) and County Business Enterprises (CBEs) in connection with the Pool Resurfacing project at Topeekeegee Yugnee (T.Y.) Park's Castaway Island Water Park in Hollywood, Florida. The project involves resurfacing the pool at the 3300 N Park Rd facility for the Parks and Recreation Division in accordance with specified requirements and scope of work. Vendors must submit responses electronically through BPRO by the closing date and time, and the County does not accept submissions through other means. County and State license requirements and bonding requirements apply to this solicitation. Vendors are encouraged to submit responses in advance of the deadline and may contact the Purchasing Agent or support@gobonfire.com for technical assistance.

For non-reserved solicitations without assigned CBE goals, certified Broward County SBEs or CBEs may be eligible for procurement preferences as follows: for Invitations to Bid and Quotation Requests, if a certified SBE or CBE submits a responsive, responsible bid within ten percent of the lowest responsive, responsible bid from a non-certified vendor, the SBE or CBE shall have the opportunity to match that lowest bid and be recommended for award if successful; for Request for Proposals, if an SBE or CBE proposer receives a score within five percent of the highest-ranked non-certified proposer, the highest-ranked responsive, responsible SBE or CBE proposer shall be considered the highest-ranked proposer and may proceed to contract negotiations. Certification must be current at the time of solicitation opening, and vendors should indicate their certification status on the provided form, though certification will be verified in the Broward County OESBD Certified Firm Directory. Questions regarding SBE and CBE certifications should be directed to the Office of Economic and Small Business Development at 954-357-6400.
