This insurance requirements document outlines the mandatory coverage provisions for vendors selected by the County of Volusia, Florida to provide biohazardous waste disposal services under Invitation for Bid 26-B-13AK. Prior to contract execution, the selected vendor must provide proof of comprehensive insurance coverage including workers' compensation with Florida statutory limits and waiver of subrogation, commercial general liability with $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 general aggregate limits, auto liability with $1,000,000 combined single limits, and contractual liability. The County must be designated as an additional insured with waiver of subrogation provisions on all applicable policies. The contract will be awarded for an initial three-year term with two optional one-year renewals, subject to mutual written agreement and County Council approval. Questions must be submitted by March 3, 2026 at 11:59 p.m., with sealed bids due March 17, 2026 at 3:00 p.m. through the County's eProcurement Portal.

The procurement does not specify a budget amount or award value, as pricing will be determined based on unit costs submitted by respondents for estimated annual pick-up volumes across ten line items. A three percent local preference applies to respondents with documented permanent locations in Brevard, Lake, Orange, Osceola, Seminole, or Volusia County for at least six months prior to bid closing. No disadvantaged enterprise set-asides are specified, and no incumbent vendor information has been disclosed. Invoice payments will be processed within forty-five days of receipt, and the County reserves the right to reject all bids and re-issue the solicitation. Annual price redetermination is permitted once yearly after the first contract year for documented wage or fuel cost increases. The vendor must comply with federal contract provisions including Equal Employment Opportunity requirements, Davis-Bacon Act prevailing wage standards where applicable, and environmental compliance standards under the Clean Air Act and Federal Water Pollution Control Act for contracts exceeding $150,000.
