Revised_Price_Sheet-0558FAC-RFP_Building_Code_Inspector_Services.xlsx

This is a price sheet for building code inspection services submitted in response to Request for Proposal 0558FAC issued by Hillsborough County Public Schools (HCPS) in Florida. The RFP seeks qualified firms to provide comprehensive building code inspection services for district construction, renovation, repair, and capital improvement projects valued under $7.5 million in total construction cost. Services required include plan and specification reviews, on-site structural inspections, compliance enforcement with the Florida Building Code and State Requirements for Educational Facilities, written evaluation reports, OSHA safety inspections, and digital documentation with photographic evidence. The solicitation is competitive and requires all awarded contractors to employ Florida-licensed Building Code Inspectors holding valid certifications under Chapter 468, Florida Statutes, including Building Inspectors, Electrical Inspectors, Mechanical Inspectors, and Plumbing Inspectors, or qualifying as Florida Licensed Architects or Engineers. Critical deadlines include a mandatory Q&A session on March 25, 2026, question submission deadline of April 1, 2026, and proposal submission deadline of April 8, 2026, through the VendorLink system. The initial contract term runs from June 3, 2026, to June 2, 2027, with four one-year renewal options available contingent upon budget appropriation, satisfactory performance, and continued need.

Pricing must be submitted on an hourly rate basis for four inspector positions: Building Inspector, Electrical Inspector, Mechanical Inspector, and Plumbing Inspector, with all-inclusive rates covering travel, mileage, reimbursable costs, administrative costs, and incidental expenses. Vendors must also provide pricing for plan review services on either a primary pricing basis (hourly rate), secondary pricing basis (flat fee per project), or alternate pricing basis (per square foot) for both new construction and additions, remodeling and renovations. All prices shall remain firm for the initial contract term unless mutually agreed otherwise, with any requested price changes requiring manufacturer documentation and HCPS approval at least 60 days in advance. The RFP does not specify set-asides or restrictions limiting responses to particular business classifications, though HCPS encourages vendor registration with the Office of Supplier Development for Small Business Enterprises and requests voluntary information regarding service-disabled veteran status and minority or women's business enterprise certifications. All contractors must obtain and maintain valid Jessica Lunsford Act badges at contractor expense prior to accessing district facilities and provide a Single Point of Contact for account management with guaranteed 24-hour response times. The solicitation does not disclose specific budget allocations or award values, and HCPS reserves the right to award to multiple firms to ensure adequate coverage and service availability throughout the district.
