This is a Notice of Intent to Award and supporting evaluation documentation for Request for Proposals No. RFP PR-25-554, issued by the City of Long Beach's Department of Parks, Recreation, and Marine. The RFP, released on February 25, 2025, solicited a vendor to deliver comprehensive maintenance services to all nine lakes within the City of Long Beach, with the goal of ensuring high water quality that supports public safety, enhances wildlife habitats, and fosters environmental sustainability in an urban setting. Two proposals were received by the April 1, 2025 deadline, with both submissions deemed responsive to the mandatory minimum requirements. The Committee, comprised of key representatives from Parks, Recreation, and Marine within the Maintenance Operations Bureau, unanimously selected Aquatechnex LLC based on the vendor's clear demonstration of relevant experience and thoughtful application of expertise to the project's specific requirements. The Notice of Intent to Award was issued on July 2, 2025, though this does not constitute a final award; work shall not commence without a signed purchase order from the City of Long Beach.
The evaluation criteria weighted Organizational Capacity & Experience at 30 percent, Method of Approach at 40 percent, Communications & Reporting at 20 percent, and Reasonableness of Cost at 10 percent. Aquatechnex LLC received a final score of 73 percent out of 100, while the competing vendor, Diversified Waterscapes, scored 52 percent. The Method of Approach criterion emphasized the vendor's need to demonstrate certification as a Certified Lake Manager, proposed lake management philosophy, ability to manage bulrush and tules, proposed products, experience with nanobubble technology, and experience with alum injection systems. Communications and Reporting requirements include weekly communications on current lake conditions and monthly reports on treatments and lake conditions including laboratory results of water samples, along with monthly invoicing. The contract award is contingent upon execution of a purchase order and does not specify pricing terms, contract duration, or renewal options in the provided documents.
