About this file
This file is an Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) reference document outlining the Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) requirements for Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) in conjunction with the City of Tampa Fire Rescue Department's Invitation to Bid (ITB) number 26-P-00015 for Aerial Device Testing. The procurement solicits comprehensive testing and inspection services for fire rescue equipment in compliance with National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 1910 standards. The scope of work includes approximately 39 annual aerial ladder inspections, 21 annual aerial platform inspections, 39 oil sample analyses, and 11 Level II Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) tests over a potential three-year contract period consisting of one initial year with two optional one-year renewals. Technicians performing the testing must be certified to SNT-TC-1A and CP-189 guidelines, with NDT technicians required to maintain at least Level II certification. Electronic bid submissions are due by 4:30 pm on Monday, November 24, 2025, through the OpenGov eProcurement Portal. Bidders are required to provide a reference from a Florida-based fire department and submit compliance documentation including DMI subcontractor forms, affidavits of compliance, and conflict of interest disclosures.
The estimated contract amount is $35,000, with pricing terms structured as annual service costs. The City of Tampa offers a Small Local Business Enterprise (SLBE) discount provision allowing a 5% bid discount up to $10,000 for City-certified SLBE vendors, demonstrating commitment to local small business participation. Two certified SLBE vendors are currently identified: K & A Construction Services Inc from Tampa and SAT Industrial Supplies & Solutions LLC from Lutz, Florida. The Equal Business Opportunity (EBO) Office has reviewed and approved the procurement. The City reserves the right to unilaterally extend the contract for up to three additional 30-day periods, providing flexibility in contract management. The OSHA SDS reference document included in this attachment establishes the standardized format and content requirements for safety data sheets across 16 sections, with OSHA enforcing Sections 1-11 and other agencies responsible for Sections 12-15.
