About this opportunity
Orange County, Florida is soliciting sealed bids for aluminum sign blanks through Invitation for Bid Y26-162, a five-year requirements contract. The procurement encompasses 45 line items including street name blades, rectangular signs, diamonds, stop signs, yield signs, and specialty signage in various sizes, with estimated five-year quantities ranging from 250 to 10,000 units per item. All aluminum sign blanks must be manufactured in compliance with Aluminum Association specifications 5052H38 for anodized aluminum and must be sheared, punched, and deburred with no exposed raw or untreated edges. The contractor shall furnish and deliver all aluminum signs within thirty calendar days of receiving a delivery order, with the F.O.B. point at Orange County Public Works - Traffic Engineering Division located at 4200 South John Young Parkway, Building 1, Orlando, Florida 32839, with all packaging, transportation, delivery, and unloading costs included in the bid price. Respondents must provide unit costs for all line items, current certificates of insurance with minimum limits of $1,000,000 for both general liability and automobile liability, E-Verify compliance documentation for employee verification, and three references for similar projects completed within the past ten years. Questions must be submitted by Tuesday, April 7, 2026 at 5:00 PM EST, and sealed electronic responses are due by Thursday, April 23, 2026 at 4:00 PM EST through the OpenGov e-Procurement Platform; all submissions must be made electronically, with hand-delivery, mail, fax, and email submissions prohibited. Award will be made on an all-or-none basis to the lowest responsive and responsible respondent.
Service Disabled Veteran Businesses may receive preference up to 8% depending on the total bid amount. Respondents must complete all required compliance documentation, including conflict of interest disclosures and anti-human trafficking attestations, and the County is exempt from state and federal sales taxes, though contractors remain responsible for paying taxes on materials. The contract includes provisions for Producer Price Index escalation adjustments annually after the initial one-year period, with a maximum allowable increase of 4% unless otherwise authorized by the Procurement Manager. No specific incumbent vendors or current contractors are listed in the solicitation documents. While no explicit budget range is provided in the available documentation, the estimated five-year quantities across the 45 line items suggest a substantial procurement with potential for significant contract value over the contract period.
