PRIME-SUB_FORM_for_Contractors_rev._01.15.2025_(lock_before_publishing).xls

This is a Prime/Subcontractor Form for Volusia County, Florida's Request for Statement of Qualifications (RSQ) for Professional Hydrogeological and Well Services. The form requires all bidders to list and identify all proposed subcontractors for the project, with the prime contractor assuming responsibility for ensuring subcontractors maintain appropriate licensing. The form mandates completion and return to avoid non-responsive bid designation. Bidders must allocate the total bid price across the prime contractor and all subcontractors, with each entity assigned a specific dollar value and corresponding percentage of work. The form includes line items for multiple subcontractor disciplines with anticipated requirements such as electrical, HVAC, plumbing, and landscaping services, though bidders may add additional disciplines as needed. All entries in designated green cells must be completed with dollar values and work percentages, which automatically calculate to total 100 percent in the summary grey cell. Any modifications to proposed subcontractors during project completion require prior approval from the County Project Manager, though the County will not permit changes to the total submitted base bid pricing. The form may also be used to determine local preference eligibility in accordance with Section 2.8, D of the solicitation documents.

The form does not specify pricing structures, set-asides, or funding information, as these details are contained in the related solicitation. However, the solicitation indicates that compensation will be determined on a project-by-project basis through task assignments using various pricing structures including fixed fee, time and materials, cost-plus-a-fixed-fee, or guaranteed maximum-not-to-exceed arrangements. The specific budget or award value is not disclosed, with pricing weighted at only 5 percent of the total evaluation score, indicating that Volusia County prioritizes qualifications and experience over cost considerations. Respondents must maintain comprehensive insurance coverage including workers' compensation at Florida Statutory limits, commercial general liability with $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate limits, auto liability with $1,000,000 combined single limits, and professional liability with $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate limits from Florida-licensed insurers with minimum A.M.
