Bid_Evaluation_Form_25-JG-027A.docx

The Bid Evaluation Form for Bid #25-JG-027A is a document from Pinellas County School District in Florida detailing the evaluation criteria for a Chemical Fire Suppression Systems Maintenance and Repair Services contract. The solicitation seeks a certified licensed contractor to provide corrective and preventative maintenance for pre-engineered fire suppression systems across county school facilities. The contract will evaluate bidders based on hourly rates for technicians, helpers, and supervisors during straight time, nights/weekends, and emergency periods, with a maximum of 50 points allocated for technician and helper rates. Additional evaluation points will be awarded for a 6-year maintenance service and material/supply costs from specific manufacturers like Amerex, Ansul, Kidde, Pyrochem, and Range Guard.

The bid explicitly prohibits the awarded Inspection, Testing, and Certification Services vendor from being selected for this maintenance contract, ensuring competitive separation between related services. Bidders are required to demonstrate due diligence by familiarizing themselves with local conditions, project requirements, and comprehensive cost considerations. The evaluation will use a point-based scoring system that compares unit prices between bidders, with the District reserving the right to request formal presentations to the Facilities, Planning, Design & Construction Department. Total possible points across all evaluation criteria will determine the selected contractor, with an emphasis on competitive hourly rates and comprehensive service capabilities.
