Babcock/Webb WMA Road Material

The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) is seeking competitive bids for a road material supply and delivery project at the Babcock/Webb Wildlife Management Area (WMA) in Charlotte County, Florida. The procurement is an Invitation to Bid (ITB) solicitation number FWC 25/26-11, specifically requesting approximately 9,600 tons of bank run shell and 1,214 tons of crushed concrete to be delivered to a designated dumping location. The bid was advertised on September 19, 2025, with sealed bids due on October 7, 2025, at 3:30 PM ET. The contract term is one year from the purchase order issuance, with all services to be completed by June 15, 2026. Key evaluation criteria include responsiveness, vendor responsibility, and submission of the lowest total price, with materials required to meet specific FDOT technical standards for bank run shell and crushed concrete. A mandatory site visit with the awarded vendor will be conducted before the Notice to Proceed is issued, and bidders must submit precise pricing per ton for the specified materials.

Participation is restricted to vendors registered in the MyFloridaMarketPlace (MFMP) and Sunbiz systems, with certified minority-owned, woman-owned, and service-disabled veteran business enterprises strongly encouraged to bid. The procurement requires a performance bond covering 100% of the total contract price, and contractors must maintain appropriate insurance coverage. The estimated budget for this project is $200,000, with the FWC planning to award the contract to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. Potential vendors must demonstrate compliance with technical specifications, including meeting FDOT standards for material composition and quality. While no incumbent vendors are specifically mentioned, the project represents a significant opportunity for vendors specializing in road construction materials to secure a contract with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.
