About this file
This is a Certification of Business Location form issued by the Solid Waste Authority of Palm Beach County, Florida, as part of RFP 26-205 for Biomass Waste Processing – Medium Volume. The solicitation seeks a qualified contractor to receive, process, and beneficially use or recycle 50,000 tons of biomass waste. The certification document establishes the local preference policy requirements that proposers must meet to be eligible for consideration, specifically requiring that businesses maintain a permanent place of business within Palm Beach County for a minimum of one year prior to the issuance of the solicitation. Proposers must submit this completed certification along with a valid Palm Beach County Business Tax Receipt at the time of proposal submission through the Euna/Bonfire electronic portal by the date and time specified in the RFP document.
The local preference eligibility is determined solely by the Business Tax Receipt and completed Certification of Business Location; errors or failure to submit the certification will result in disqualification from the local preference consideration. Proposers exempt by law from obtaining a Business Tax Receipt must provide statutory citation and alternative documentation establishing a permanent county presence prior to solicitation issuance. The RFP includes a Small Business Enterprise (SBE) participation requirement with a twenty percent subcontracting affirmative procurement initiative. Proposers must submit responses electronically through Bonfire and confirm receipt, as the Authority will not accept responses submitted by other means. The Authority reserves the right to contact proposers for additional information regarding business location requirements after the proposal due date, and any misrepresentation on the certification may result in disqualification from this and future solicitations.
