Dog Food

The State of Florida, through the Florida Department of Corrections, has issued an Invitation to Bid (ITB) to secure bids from responsible vendors to provide and deliver dog food for Leon County and the City of Tallahassee. The purpose of this ITB is to establish a one-year contract, with the option to renew for up to four additional one-year periods, for the procurement of dog food products. The ITB provides detailed specifications for the required dog food, including quantities, nutritional requirements, and delivery terms. Bids are due by a specified date and time, and a pre-bid conference will be held prior to the bid due date. The ITB outlines the pricing and commercial terms, including requirements for fixed pricing, prompt payment discounts, and taxes.

The ITB does not mention any small business, minority, or women-owned business set-asides. The current incumbent supplier is not identified in the ITB. Funding for the contract will be provided through the general operating budgets of Leon County and the City of Tallahassee, but the specific award value or budget range is not provided.
