About this file

This document is a bid award notification from the Florida Keys Electric Cooperative Association, Inc. (FKEC) for Bid #25-26, which covers the purchase and consignment of electric transformers. The bid was awarded to two vendors: GRESCO UTILITY SUPPLY/ERMCO and EATON/WESCO DISTRIBUTION on August 4, 2025. FKEC explicitly notes that this was not a public bid opening and they will not be sharing the specific details of the winning proposal.

The cooperative has strategically positioned itself to protect vendor and bidder privacy by citing Florida Statute Title X, Chapter 119, which they argue does not classify FKEC as a "state and local government agency". Consequently, they are not subject to the full enforcement of public records statutes. FKEC has provided a link to the relevant statutory information to help interested parties understand the application of the "Sunshine Law" in this context, reinforcing their stance on maintaining confidentiality in their procurement processes.

Since this was not a public bid opening, we cannot share the winning proposal information.

In accordance with Florida Statute: Title X, Chapter 119, 119.011 Definitions, paragraph (2) “Agency”, Florida Keys Electric Cooperative Association, Inc. does not meet the definition of “state and local government agency”, therefore, is not subject to enforcement of the statute.

FKEC reserves the right to protect our privacy and the privacy and business information of our bidders and vendors. The link below may be helpful in understanding the application of the “Sunshine Law”.
