The total estimated project value is $54,000.00, covering comprehensive headrest hardware installation and modification.

The procurement follows Florida statutory guidelines under sections 120.57(3) and 287.057(3), with approval from key DJJ personnel including Gregory Davis (Bureau Chief), Pamela White (Deputy Bureau Chief), and Latasha Bissell (Fleet Manager). Prospective vendors are invited to provide information demonstrating their ability to supply equivalent services, with the understanding that if no competitive alternatives are identified, DJJ will proceed with Tire Town Automotive as the sole vendor.
