This is a project specification document for the Escambia County Facilities Management Department's Johnson's Beach Information Signs project in Florida. The project involves the installation of two concrete pads and digital reader board signs at two locations: the southwest end of Theo Barr's Bridge and the Perdido Key Park 2 entrance. The contractor must construct concrete foundations, install two Watchfire reader boards (model #2219iSA, measuring 41" x 87"), and provide complete power connections, including boring under Perdido Key Drive for the northern sign and connecting to an existing pole for the southern sign. A non-mandatory pre-bid meeting is scheduled for January 7, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. at the Gulf Island National Seashore Warehouse. Questions must be submitted by January 9, 2026, at 12:00 p.m., and electronic bid submissions are due by January 13, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. The project must be substantially completed within 60 consecutive calendar days from the Notice to Proceed, with an additional 30 days permitted for final completion.

Bids must be submitted as lump sum pricing with itemized costs across six line items, including concrete footings, sign installation, power connections, and a 10% owner's contingency. Contractors must provide a bid surety equal to 5% of the total bid price and, if awarded, performance and payment bonds covering 100% of the contract value. Insurance requirements include workers' compensation, general liability coverage of $1,000,000 per occurrence/$2,000,000 aggregate, and business auto liability of $1,000,000 per accident. Liquidated damages of $904.00 per calendar day will be assessed for failure to meet project completion deadlines. No specific budget range is provided in the documentation, though the comprehensive insurance and bonding requirements suggest a project of significant scale and complexity.
