The Willingboro Municipal Utilities Authority (WMUA) in Burlington County, New Jersey, is conducting a re-bid process (Bid #24R-07) to lease office space for its operations. The procurement seeks approximately 1,500 to 2,500 square feet of office space within Willingboro municipal boundaries, with a preference for ground-level or elevator-accessible upper floor locations. The bid offers two lease term options: a two-year lease with potential one-year extensions up to five years, and a five-year lease with specific requirements for accessibility, electrical and telecommunications infrastructure, and parking facilities. Bidders must provide pricing per square foot for both lease term options and may submit alternate bids for spaces less than 1,500 square feet. The bid responses are due on August 14, 2024, at 12:00 P.M., with a desired occupancy date of October 1, 2024, or as soon as possible thereafter. The bid will be conducted electronically through the BIDNET platform, requiring all responses to be uploaded to the e-procurement site by the specified deadline.

The solicitation does not explicitly specify set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, but it does require compliance with equal employment opportunity and anti-discrimination regulations. Prospective lessors must adhere to various state and local business registration requirements. The bid documents do not mention incumbent vendors or existing infrastructure that would require integration. While specific budget ranges are not detailed, the procurement allows for flexible pricing based on square footage and lease term options. The lease terms include provisions for utilities, maintenance, and janitorial services, suggesting a comprehensive approach to office space procurement. Potential vendors should carefully review the detailed specifications in the bid package, which outlines specific requirements for building amenities, accessibility features, and operational considerations for the proposed office space.
