About this file
This file is an email correspondence regarding clarification questions for the Polk County School Board's Continuing Contract for 3rd Party Inspection Consulting Services. On March 4, 2025, Peggy Bannier, Senior Director of Facilities, responded to a question from Jamie Gray of Universal Engineering Sciences regarding the scope of third-party inspections being sought. Bannier clarified that the School Board is seeking inspectors to perform both standard inspections required by the Florida Building Code that are typically conducted by the Building Official, as well as specialized inspections including bolt torque, welding, rebar inspections, and structural steel inspections. The email references a Mandatory Pre-Submittal Conference previously held, during which attendees were instructed to submit all questions through VendorLink. Bannier directed all future inquiries to be submitted through VendorLink so that responses are posted and made available to all prospective third-party inspectors.
The correspondence does not contain pricing information, set-aside details, incumbent information, or funding requirements. However, the email emphasizes the formal procurement process requirements established by the Polk County School Board, which include submission of initial screening criteria, proof of Professional Liability Insurance, and mandatory attendance at pre-submittal conferences. All questions and answers regarding the procurement are centralized through VendorLink to ensure transparency and equal access to information among all qualified vendors interested in providing environmental, commissioning, or third-party inspection services.

From: Bannier, Peggy To: Jamie Gray Cc: Meza, Tracy Subject: RE: Selection Process for 3rd Party Inspections Consulting Services Date: Tuesday, March 4, 2025 12:09:31 PM Attachments: image008.png image009.png image010.png image011.png
Jamie, Please see my answers in red text below.
Clarification: within the Continuing Contract are EXHIBITSs where the 3rd Party (meaning inspections given to outside Inspectors) fills out after he/she has answered the RFP quested from Architectural Services.
Also, in the Mandatory meeting Tracy said and it’s stated in writing to send your questions to VendorLink. If you have any other questions, ask them through VendorLink. Now Tracy will have to post you questions and my answers on VendorLink so that all third party inspectors have access to your question.

Good Morning, Could you clarify the difference in third-party inspections? YES Are you seeking inspectors who perform the same inspections as the Building Official for the minimum FBC required inspections, and/or are you looking for specialized inspections such as bolt torque, welding, rebar inspections, or structural steel inspections? BOTH
