About this file
This Statement of Qualifications Requirements document outlines the submission guidelines for vendors seeking pre-qualification with the City of St. Petersburg, Florida to furnish and deliver herbicides, pesticides, fungicides, and related products on an as-needed basis. Vendors must submit a comprehensive Statement of Qualifications package containing three primary sections: a transmittal letter signed by an authorized company representative, a description of three reference projects or continuing services contracts completed within the past three years that demonstrate relevant experience with complete client contact information, and firm-specific qualifications documentation. The City will pre-qualify up to three vendors with preference for including at least one City-certified Small Business Enterprise, and quotes will be solicited from qualified vendors on an as-needed basis with projects awarded to the lowest-priced qualified vendor available. The resulting contract will have an initial three-year term with two optional two-year renewal periods.
In the firm-specific qualifications section, vendors must provide a comprehensive list of all herbicides, pesticides, fungicides, and related products offered, including delivery methods, expected lead times from order placement, whether deliveries are fulfilled directly or through third-party providers, and any innovative or non-traditional products recommended beyond those typically used by the City. Vendors must meet minimum qualifications including at least one year of prior experience providing these products, ability to obtain comprehensive insurance coverage (Commercial General Liability of $1,000,000 per occurrence/$2,000,000 aggregate, Commercial Automobile Liability of $1,000,000 combined single limit, Workers' Compensation, and Pollution Liability of $1,000,000 per occurrence), registration with the Florida Department of State, E-Verify compliance, and adherence to nondiscrimination laws. Evaluation will be based on firm-specific qualifications (50 points), experience and reference projects (35 points), and SBE/MBE/WBE certifications (5 points each), with vendors required to respond to orders within twenty-four hours and maintain a single point of contact Account Manager.
