About this opportunity

The City of Orlando, Florida, located in Orange County, is seeking bids for comprehensive City Parks Tree Watering Services under Invitation for Bid (IFB25-0346). The procurement involves providing watering services for trees ranging from 15-gallon, 1-inch caliper to 100-gallon, 5-inch caliper across various municipal locations including rights-of-way, medians, private and residential properties, and City Parks. Watering schedules are tiered based on tree age: daily watering for months 1-2, three times weekly for months 3-6, twice weekly for months 7-10, and once weekly for months 11-12, with additional as-needed watering services. Two mandatory virtual pre-bid conferences are scheduled for August 18, 2025, at 1:00 PM and August 21, 2025, at 10:00 AM, with questions due by August 28, 2025, at 5:00 PM. Bid submissions are due September 8, 2025, at 2:00 PM through the City's e-Procurement Portal. Contractors must provide all necessary equipment, maintain FDOT-compliant traffic provisions, and ensure water access. Evaluation will likely consider compliance with specifications, pricing, and ability to meet watering requirements.

The City intends to award a three-year contract with two optional twelve-month renewal periods, potentially extending up to 60 months. While no specific set-aside designations are mentioned, contractors must meet insurance requirements including Workers' Compensation, Comprehensive Automobile Liability, and Commercial General Liability coverage. The contract includes compliance with the City's Living Wage Policy for contracts exceeding $100,000 annually. Contractors must provide tree warranty coverage for trees that die due to insufficient watering and submit annual sales and usage reports. The procurement includes five line items with estimated quantities: 1,400 daily waterings, 600 three-times-weekly waterings, 400 twice-weekly waterings, 200 once-weekly waterings, and one as-needed watering service. The City reserves the right to award to multiple contractors, and while specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the sample invoice suggests a rate of $8.00 per tree per watering day, with potential monthly service values around $8,784 based on the provided sample documentation.
