About this file
This Addendum No. 1 is issued by Hillsborough County Public Schools (HCPS) Procurement Services to modify the competitive solicitation 25509-ITQ-MST for Hood Cleaning Services. The addendum clarifies that the solicitation encompasses hood cleaning services across approximately 66 to 70 school locations throughout Hillsborough County, with each site containing either culinary or concession hoods, or both. The locations include elementary schools, middle schools, high schools, and specialized facilities such as the Sligh Community Center. All hoods are vertically ducted and accessible via hinge kits. The document provides a comprehensive list of all 34 school sites and specialty centers included in the solicitation, with specific annotations indicating the number and type of hoods at each location. Respondents were required to submit questions by November 6, 2025, and bids were due by November 13, 2025, at 4:30 PM through the VendorLink electronic submission system.
The addendum addresses key bidder inquiries regarding hood locations, quantities, ducting configurations, and access mechanisms. Notably, HCPS clarified that this is a new solicitation with no prior pricing history available for reference, and that photographic exhibits of sample hoods have been provided to assist vendors in assessing hood sizes and specifications without requiring site visits to all locations. All hoods are confirmed to have accessible hinged panels for cleaning purposes. Bidders are required to acknowledge receipt of this addendum with their submitted bid and must adhere to the original solicitation requirements, which include compliance with foreign country affiliation restrictions, human trafficking prevention certifications, background checks, and drug-free workplace policies. The contract will commence upon Board approval and may automatically renew for up to four additional one-year periods, subject to budget availability and mutual agreement.
