ITB_24-29_Revised_Submittal_Checklist_(ref_Addendum_II).pdf

This is a revised submittal checklist for Walton County, Florida's sealed bid procurement (ITB No. 24-29) for the Glendale Fire Station construction project. The project involves the construction of an 8,120-square-foot pre-fabricated and engineered steel and wood fire station for Walton County Fire Rescue, located on a 7.58-acre undeveloped site northeast of the intersection of SR-83 and County Highway 2. The scope encompasses mechanical, electrical, plumbing, building construction, and site work to meet 2017 Florida Building Code standards. A non-mandatory pre-bid conference was held on May 30, 2024, with the final deadline for submitting questions set at May 6, 2024, at 12:00 Noon. Sealed bids were originally due May 16, 2024, but the deadline was extended to May 23, 2024, at 3:00 P.M., with public opening and reading of bids to follow immediately. The project allows 220 calendar days for substantial completion from the Notice to Proceed, with liquidated damages assessed at $1,700 per day for substantial completion delays and $850 per day for final completion delays.

Bidders must be licensed General Contractors in accordance with Walton County Ordinance 2009-01 and must submit a 5% bid bond along with performance and payment bonds. The estimated project cost is approximately $2.8 million, with the county having budgeted the full amount for the project. All required submission documentation must include a notarized bid form and schedule, bid security, proof of state registration, previous experience and current commitments, subcontractor and supplier declarations, trench safety compliance certification, public entity crimes form, drug-free workplace certification, unauthorized aliens form, and conflict of interest disclosure. Failure to submit all required forms and the submittal checklist will result in a non-responsive bid determination. No specific set-asides for disadvantaged enterprises are mentioned in the documentation, and local vendor preference considerations apply to the procurement.
