About this opportunity
The School Board of Polk County, Florida issued Bid #025-TEC-1219 to establish a contract for brake shoes, brake pads, and front shoe kits for the district's vehicle maintenance fleet, specifically targeting Thomas Vista, Freightliner, and Thomas C2 buses. The procurement seeks relined brake shoes, new brake pads, and front shoe kits with strict manufacturer specifications, requiring approved parts from Federal Mogul (Abex) and Meritor lining materials with no substitutions allowed. The original bid solicited proposals for approximately 875 rear relined shoes, 39 brake pads, and 141 front shoe kits, with an initial contract period from February 1, 2019, to January 31, 2020, and potential options for extension. Bidders were required to provide fixed pricing for the initial contract period, with potential annual price adjustments based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) in subsequent years. The bid requested delivery within 1-3 business days of order and included provisions for handling market volatility and additional items. The original bid due date was January 25, 2019, at 3:00 PM, with multiple vendors submitting proposals, including Bartow Ford, Rainey's Truck Parts, Sun State International, TPH Holdings/Orlando Truck Parts, and TruckPro LLC.
The contract did not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises, but did include a preference for businesses with drug-free workplace programs. TruckPro LLC emerged as the lowest bidder with a total composite bid of $28,350.42 and has been consistently renewed as the primary vendor through successive contract periods, including renewals for 2020-2021, 2021-2022, 2022-2023, and 2023-2024. The bid maintained consistent terms and conditions across renewals, suggesting stability in pricing and service. While specific budget ranges were not explicitly detailed, the bid tabulation revealed total composite bids ranging from $28,051.93 to $32,730.00 across different vendors. The procurement process included a structured bid protest procedure, with specific windows for potential challenges and clear guidelines for maintaining protest rights under Florida Statutes. Payment terms were established as net 30 days, and the district reserved the right to adjust quantities and terminate the contract under certain conditions.
