About this file
This is a specification document for grounds maintenance and irrigation services required by the Greater Orlando Aviation Authority (GOAA) for Orlando International Airport (MCO) in Florida. The solicitation seeks comprehensive grounds maintenance and irrigation management services for Terminals A and B Landside Grounds, Cargo Road, North Parking Lots, and South Parking Lots, with services to be provided in accordance with industry best practices and focused on measurable performance outcomes. The contract will be a 60-month performance-based agreement commencing on or about February 1, 2027. The awarded respondent(s) shall provide all necessary labor, supervision, management, equipment, vehicles, tools, materials, supplies, permits, licenses, chemicals, and other resources required for comprehensive grounds maintenance and irrigation management. All landscape assets must meet appearance standards and be maintained at an acceptable quality level at all times, with service frequencies and quantities subject to adjustment based on actual site conditions. The Aviation Authority reserves the right to approve one or multiple awards for individual service areas, groups of service areas, or any combination thereof.
The specification emphasizes that actual conditions may cause the stated service frequencies and quantities to differ from estimates, and such discrepancies do not relieve the contractor from its contractual obligations. The Aviation Authority is only obligated to pay for services specifically authorized, satisfactorily performed, and accepted by the Aviation Authority Authorized Representative. The specification does not identify specific pricing terms, set-asides, incumbent contractors, or funding sources and amounts. Respondents should note that this solicitation focuses on performance-based metrics including maximizing asset life, optimizing water use, enhancing operational efficiency, and ensuring public safety while maintaining a best-in-class environment.
