Broward County Derelict Vessel Removal Project

The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) is seeking competitive bids for the BROWARD COUNTY DERELICT VESSEL REMOVAL PROJECT. The intent of this Invitation to Bid (ITB) is to obtain pricing for the removal, destruction, and disposal of 4 derelict vessels within Broward County, Florida. The project must be completed within 120 days of the issuance of the Purchase Order. A non-mandatory pre-bid conference will be held, and bidders must visit the site prior to submitting a bid. Bids are due by June 22, 2022 at 11:30 AM ET, and the anticipated award date is June 27, 2022. The contract will be awarded to the responsive, responsible bidder who submits the lowest bid price. Bidders must be registered in the MyFloridaMarketPlace system and with SunBiz prior to bid opening. Liquidated damages of $500 per day will be assessed for failure to complete the project on time, and payment will not be made until FWC receives all required documentation, including photographic evidence of the vessel removal, destruction, and disposal.

Certified minority-owned, woman-owned, and service-disabled veteran business enterprises are encouraged to participate. The ITB does not list any incumbent vendors or current contractors, and no existing infrastructure or technology integration requirements are specified. The bid opportunity does not provide a budget range, but the award will be made to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder.
