This Scope of Work document outlines hurricane debris removal and disposal services required by the Florida Department of Juvenile Justice in Leon County. The procurement seeks qualified vendors to provide professional debris removal, collection, sorting, and disposal services for materials resulting from hurricane damage, including large and small branches, building materials, leaves, and broken trees, with all collected materials disposed of in an environmentally responsible manner according to local disposal regulations. Written questions must be submitted by May 22, 2026 at 3:00 p.m., with the Department's response posted by May 25, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. Sealed qualifications are due by June 9, 2026 at 1:00 p.m., with bid opening scheduled for the same date at 2:00 p.m., and agency selection advertisement scheduled for June 12, 2026. The contract term is not explicitly specified in the available procurement documents.

Evaluation of submissions will occur in two phases: an initial screening worth 100 points based on debris removal experience, staff qualifications, scheduling and cost control capabilities, information systems, and financial capability, followed by presentations from the top three or more vendors evaluated on an additional 100 points covering references, knowledge of hurricane debris removal and disposal, insurance coverage, proposed project staff and functions, methodology, cost, and scheduling. Vendors must demonstrate financial stability with a current Dun & Bradstreet Financial Stress Class of 1–4, maintain professional liability insurance of at least $1,000,000, and provide a reply bond of $1.5 million. The selected vendor must furnish a performance bond or irrevocable letter of credit of $5 million or the average annual contract price, whichever is greater, within 10 business days of contract execution. The total project budget is approximately $500,000,000, with funds available in Fiscal Year 25/26 and remaining funds expected in FY 26/27. No set-asides for disadvantaged enterprises, incumbent vendors, or restrictions limiting eligible respondent types are identified in the procurement documents.
