333 Chestnut Palm Room Safety Tint

Pinellas County is seeking quotes for ITQ #23-0553-ITQ to install safety tint at the Palm Room located at 333 Chestnut Street in Clearwater, Florida. The project involves providing and installing 8mil privacy silver safety film on 29 ground floor door section panels, totaling 872 square feet, following a security audit recommendation by the Pinellas County Sheriff's Office. Vendors must submit quotes electronically through the OpenGov procurement website by April 18, 2023, at 3:00 pm, with a question submission deadline of April 10, 2023. The contract duration is twelve months from the award date, and vendors are required to quote a unit cost per square foot for the installation. Required vendor submissions include a certificate of insurance, completed vendor questionnaire, references, and a W-9 form. Evaluation criteria will focus on responsiveness, meeting specifications, and providing the lowest quote that satisfies all project requirements.

The procurement does not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions on vendor types. Vendors must be registered with the Florida Division of Corporations and comply with local, state, and federal regulations. Insurance requirements are comprehensive, including Workers' Compensation Insurance with $500,000 limits and Commercial General Liability Insurance with $1,000,000 per occurrence. Vendors must provide insurance certificates from companies with an AM Best rating of A- VIII or better and maintain coverage for two years beyond project acceptance. While no specific budget range is detailed, the project involves a relatively small scope of 872 square feet of safety tint installation. Vendors must provide at least four references from previous clients who have performed similar services, with the understanding that Pinellas County Government references will not be accepted. The county's payment terms are set at net 45 days per Florida Statute 218.73.
