About this file

This is an Addendum No. 1 to Request for Proposal 15-25 issued by New Smyrna Beach Utilities for an Annual Underground Utility Contractor. The addendum clarifies licensing requirements, contractual obligations, and insurance provisions for contractors responding to the RFP. Bidders must possess a Florida Underground Utility and Excavation Contractor's License; a general contractor's license is not acceptable. The proposal submission deadline is August 19, 2025, at 2:30 PM. No prebid meeting will be held. The contract will initially be for one year with options to extend for three additional one-year periods, and multiple contractors may be selected and ranked based on evaluation scores.

The addendum addresses key financial and contractual terms, confirming that no liquidated damages, retainage, or performance bonds are required for this continuing services contract, as selected utility work will typically be under $200,000. No predetermined budget has been established, as work is not pre-planned but rather selected based on utility needs as they arise. Professional liability insurance coverage is not applicable to this solicitation. The addendum includes a signed acknowledgment form that must accompany all proposals, and the previous bid tabulation is provided as a supporting document to inform interested bidders of historical pricing and competition.
