Computer Based Testing Examination Services for Approved Building Code Candidates

The Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) in Florida is seeking a single source for the International Code Council to provide computer-based testing examination services for the Building Code Administrator's and Inspector's Board Examination Program. The Department intends to award a single-source contract for a term of five years with a renewal/extension option, with a total estimated value of $2,400,000. The services are required to administer the examinations approved for certification, which must be substantially equivalent to the examinations administered by the International Code Council. The Department has determined that the International Code Council is the only source capable of providing the required examination services. Prospective vendors are requested to provide information regarding their ability to supply the required services, and the Department will provide notice of its intended decision to enter a single-source purchase contract if it is determined that the services are available only from a single source. The procurement is related to the state of Florida, specifically Leon County and Tampa City, and the response deadline is March 30, 2023.

Certified Woman-, Veteran- and/or Minority-Owned Business Enterprises are encouraged to participate in this procurement. Protests and disputes must be filed within specific timeframes, and a bond equal to 1% of the estimated contract amount is required when protesting a decision or intended decision. No other set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond are provided, and no information is available regarding any listed incumbent vendors or current contractors, or any existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration.
