RE: RFP #: DOT-RFP-25-4002-CO

RFP TITLE: DISTRICT WIDE TITLE SEARCH AND EXAMINATION SERVICES FOR FLORIDA

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION – DISTRICT FOUR

OPENING DATE: 11/05/2024

Notice is hereby given of the following answers to questions listed below:

# Questions Answers

1.

For each of the report types listed in Sections 4.1-4.6 of Exhibit A-Scope of Services, how many reports per month are expected to be ordered from the winning vendor?

None guaranteed. Average approx. 20-30 mostly 4.1 & 4.2

2.

For clarity, I understand that up to 10 reports per month may be required - but, I am wanting to know a) if you can share an expected monthly average with us, and b) if the winning vendor would be required to produce up to 10 of each type of report or 10 reports total regardless of type.

None guaranteed. Average approx. 20-30 mostly 4.1 & 4.2 varies based on FDOT project demands.

3.

Can you describe some of the challenges that previous title search vendors for District 4 title search projects have experienced?

Accessing and fulfilling back to patent research. Court case research access. Required communications with FDOT as to status of delivery in relation to target date and/or communications if additional work is required or needed to complete the request. For instance, arms lengths transactions for subject property may have multiple prior “chains of title history” to arrive at today’s entire property. Vendor is expected to contact FDOT Manager of this contract to communicate and provide evidence and request additional funds accordingly. Another may be communications as to the discovery of unrealized contiguous properties and the expectation is to contact FDOT Manager of this contract to determine if those contiguous properties should or should not be included in delivery of Title information requested.

Bidders must acknowledge receipt of this document by completing and returning to the Procurement Office with their Bid via email at D4.Purch@dot.state.fl.us , by no later than the time and date of the proposal opening. Failure to do so may subject the Bidder to disqualification.
