This exhibit file supports an Invitation to Bid (ITB #PWD/260828) issued by the City of Ocala Public Works Department in Florida for street sweeping services. The City seeks qualified vendors to provide sweeping maintenance services for City streets and City-owned parking lots within municipal limits, covering up to 200 curbed center lane miles (measured from road center, including both sides). Service frequency varies seasonally: one cycle monthly from June 1 through September 30, and two cycles monthly from October 1 through May 31. A mandatory pre-bid meeting is scheduled for June 25, 2026, at 9:30 AM EST at the Public Works Administration Conference Room, 1305 NE 30th Ave., Building 300, Ocala, Florida. All services must comply with City requirements and Florida Department of Transportation regulations, with vendors responsible for all labor, equipment, and materials.

Exhibit I identifies designated staging areas where contractors may position sweeper dumpsters, with the requirement that all staging areas must be maintained in a clean and orderly condition at all times. Additional key requirements include the mandatory presence of one Maintenance of Traffic (MOT) certified employee on-site at all times and equipping all street sweepers with GPS locators and real-time tracking systems. The awarded vendor must provide GPS proof upon contract execution, and failure to meet this requirement will result in contract termination. Vendors must submit emailed reports detailing area coverage, driver names, and relevant information during each billing cycle, along with completion of daily sweeping cycle audits with archived data available for retrieval.
