Asphalt Milling - Twin Lakes Park

Sarasota County is seeking qualified contractors to supply and install approximately 81.5 cubic yards of asphalt millings at Twin Lakes Park through a Quick Quote (QQ-438) procurement process. The project is specifically located at Twin Lakes Park Building C at 6700 Clark Road in Sarasota, Florida, spanning from the building to the west and reaching Hummingbird Avenue. Contractors must cut and balance the project area, stockpile removed material in a designated area, supply and compact 2 inches of asphalt millings, and apply two coats of sealer 30 days after the asphalt is laid. Key qualifications include providing a minimum of two references demonstrating similar service experience, which must be submitted through OpenGov Procurement. The bid response deadline is April 2, 2025, at 2:30 pm, with electronic submissions required through the county's secure procurement portal. The contract will be awarded to the responsive and responsible bidder offering the lowest total bid price, with a strict $50,000 quote threshold. The project timeline requires work to begin within 14 days after receiving a County Purchase Order and be completed within 45 days.

The solicitation does not explicitly mention any set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The county reserves the right to cancel the Quick Quote and re-solicit using another procurement method if no suitable quotes are received. Vendors must comply with various legal requirements, including employment eligibility verification, insurance standards, and public records regulations. The county may purchase additional quantities at the quoted unit price during the 30-day period following the award, with potential to extend pricing for up to one year. A contingency of up to 10% of the total bid price may be allowed for unforeseen circumstances, subject to written County approval. The materials provided by the bidder will be fully warranted for one year from the date of County acceptance, or for the standard warranty period provided by the bidder or manufacturer, whichever is greater. While no specific budget range is detailed, the $50,000 quote threshold suggests the project's estimated value falls within that approximate cost range.
