This is a bid items schedule for Invitation for Bids (IFB) 25-067UM-HK-IFB issued by the City of Plant City, Florida, for a Communication Tower Electrical and Fiber Improvement project. The project scope encompasses six primary work categories: Mobilization/Demobilization, Bond and Insurance, Electrical Service and Generator installation, Radio Cabinet and Miscellaneous Site Work at the tower, and OT/IT Cabling with Duct Bank and Telecommunications Room construction. All bid items are priced on a lump-sum (LS) basis with a quantity of one unit per item, except for the Project Allowance which is a fixed $10,000 line item. The project timeline requires substantial completion within 210 days from the Notice to Proceed, with a question submission deadline of November 3, 2025, and a proposal submission deadline of November 13, 2025. Contractor qualifications mandate a minimum of three years of electrical service experience and five years of fiber optic installation experience. Bidders must submit proof of business qualification, W-9 forms, insurance certificates, references, and compliance documentation including E-Verify verification, drug-free workplace attestation, and public entity crime compliance certifications.

The bid structure establishes liquidated damages at $500 per day for failure to achieve substantial completion. While the bid items schedule does not specify individual unit prices for most line items, the $10,000 Project Allowance serves as a designated contingency. The procurement does not explicitly indicate disadvantaged enterprise set-asides but includes local preference policies and mandatory E-Verify requirements. No incumbent vendor information is provided. The project involves relocating electrical and fiber infrastructure from a public works building slated for demolition to the Plant City Water Reclamation Facility communication tower, requiring careful integration with existing network systems to maintain continuous operations and preserve network integrity throughout the transition period.
