Federally_Funded_Purchase_Questionnaire.pdf

This is a Federally Funded Purchase Questionnaire filed by the City of Gainesville, Florida in conjunction with a construction manager services solicitation for the RTS Bus Stop Improvements Program Phase 2 (and contingently Phase 3). The questionnaire is required to be completed and submitted with bid responses and serves to assist the City in establishing Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) goals with the federal government. Bidders must provide their firm name and address, indicate DBE status, specify the age of the firm, and report annual gross receipts within designated ranges (less than $500,000; $500,000 to $1 million; $1 to $2 million; $2 to $5 million; or more than $5 million). Proposals are due July 30, 2026. Phase 2 encompasses improvements at 95 bus stops with a construction budget of $1,050,204.58, while Phase 3 encompasses improvements at 83 bus stops with a construction budget of $851,344.45 and is contingent on receipt of additional Federal Transit Administration funding within four months of construction contract execution.

The combined budget for construction manager services across both phases is capped at $190,154.90, and submittals exceeding this amount will not be evaluated. Bidders must submit firm pricing separately for each phase. Both phases are federally funded through the Federal Transit Administration (FTA). To claim DBE status, bidders must be currently listed in the Florida Unified Certification Program (UCP) Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Directory maintained by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT). The solicitation requires submission of multiple federal certifications including debarment and lobbying certifications, federal tax liability and felony conviction certifications, a Drug Free Workplace certification, and a Contractor Responsibility Certification. The place of performance is Alachua County and Glencoe CDP, Florida.
