Attachment B is a pricing sheet for the City of DeLand Utilities Department's Request for Proposal (RFP-25-05) for Backflow Device Testing, Certifications, and Repair Services. The RFP seeks proposals from licensed plumbing and fire protection system contractors to perform comprehensive testing, certification, and repair services for approximately 14,571 existing backflow preventative devices, with an anticipated addition of 500 public devices during the contract period. The sealed proposals are due by 1:00 p.m. on April 10, 2025, and will be evaluated using a 100-point scoring system (40 points for pricing, 30 points for project approach, and 30 points for qualifications). The contract will run for two years from May 5, 2025, to May 4, 2027, with an option to extend for three additional one-year terms.

The pricing sheet details unit costs for various services, including inspection/certification and testing for different backflow device types and sizes, ranging from 3/4" to 8" in diameter. The document includes provisions for material markup, permit cost markup, and hourly rates for repairs. Contractors must provide a $15,000 proposal bond and comprehensive insurance coverage, including $1,000,000 in general liability and auto liability. At the time of the RFP, one vendor, Aaron's Backflow Services, Inc. from Lake Mary, FL, has submitted a proposal. Pricing must remain firm for the original contract term, with potential future adjustments limited to the Consumer Price Index (CPI). While a specific total contract value is not explicitly stated, the detailed pricing sheet suggests a comprehensive municipal service contract with unit-based compensation for testing and installations.
