This is a Notice of Intent to Award issued by the Orlando Utilities Commission (OUC) for RFP 25 8428 DPS Occupational Medical Services. AdventHealth Centra Care has been identified as the apparent awardee for a comprehensive occupational medical services contract. The solicitation sought qualified suppliers to provide pre-employment post-offer examinations, general medical examinations, fitness-for-duty evaluations, exposure response, random drug and alcohol screenings, and Medical Director consultation services. The original proposal submission deadline was July 17, 2025, at 2:30 PM EST, with an anticipated five-year contract term and one potential one-year renewal option. OUC reserves the right to cancel this Notice of Intent to Award prior to final contract execution and may revoke the award if the apparent successful supplier fails to negotiate and execute an acceptable contract.

The Notice of Intent to Award contains no specific pricing details, as those terms will be finalized during contract negotiations between OUC and AdventHealth Centra Care. The RFP indicated no specific set-aside requirements for disadvantaged enterprises with an M/WBE goal of 0%, and no bid or performance bonds were required. Payment terms outlined in the original solicitation included options for a 1% discount if paid within 20 days or a 3% discount if paid within 10 days, with standard net 30-day payment terms available. All correspondence regarding the award should be directed to Dom P. Sotero, Senior Buyer, Supply Chain Management, at dsotero@ouc.com. OUC emphasized that the supplier shall not acquire any legal or equitable rights until a fully executed contract is in place.
