About this opportunity
The City of Ocala is seeking qualified Florida-licensed General, Residential, or Building Contractors to perform asbestos abatement and complete demolition of a structure located at 3814 NE 5th Street in Ocala, Florida. The procurement is a Request for Quotation (RFQ# GRM/260190) that requires contractors to first conduct comprehensive asbestos removal as detailed in the attached Asbestos Survey Report, which identified four homogeneous areas containing asbestos. Following abatement, the contractor must demolish and remove the entire structure, including all improvements, debris, and junk, and restore the property to an acceptable condition through site grading, underbrush removal, and proper management of fuel tanks and septic systems. Key contractor qualifications include possessing current, active Florida Asbestos Supervisor and Asbestos Contractor licenses, three years of demolition rehabilitation experience, and maintaining specific insurance coverages including $1,000,000 Commercial General Liability and $1,000,000 Pollution Liability. The project has a 60-day completion timeline from the Notice to Proceed, with work hours restricted to 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Monday through Friday. Site visits are highly encouraged, and bidders may contact DKE Construction Services for asbestos survey clarifications. The due date is November 24, 2025, with award going to the lowest qualified bidder.
There are no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on organizational types mentioned in the procurement documents. Contractors must be Florida-licensed and meet specific professional credentials, but no disadvantaged enterprise provisions are outlined. The estimated permit fee allowance is $104, and contractors are responsible for obtaining City of Ocala Demolition Permits and Marion County septic tank permits. Contractors must perform a minimum of 30 percent of the work with their own forces and provide weight tickets from certified landfills. Liquidated damages of $100 per calendar day will be assessed for work extending beyond the 60-day completion deadline. While a specific total project budget is not disclosed, the pricing proposal form indicates the city is seeking comprehensive lump-sum pricing for demolition and abatement services. Invoices will be paid within 30 days after final inspection approval from the Building Department and Code Enforcement. The project involves a single property located in Marion County, with no indication of multiple sites or an ongoing contract vehicle.
