The bidder must maintain a repair facility within Tampa city limits, hold authorized dealer status for specified equipment brands, and employ at least two trained technicians. Sealed bids must be submitted electronically via the OpenGov eProcurement Portal by 3:00 p.m. on January 5, 2026, with technical specifications mandating a 72-hour standard turnaround time for repairs and 24-hour estimate provision.

The estimated contract value is $40,000, with successful bidders required to provide proof of Florida business registration, comply with E-Verify requirements, and maintain appropriate insurance coverage. Contractors must also complete the DMI-30 Payment Package form to document subcontractor payments and relationships. The contract allows for potential utilization by the Government Purchasing Council of Hillsborough County members, expanding applicability beyond the immediate Tampa jurisdiction.
