The solicitation designates no set-asides.

Scope covers electrical system evaluation, inspection, testing, preventative maintenance, new installation, survey, engineering, rehabilitation, and repair at various City of Sarasota facilities. The contractor furnishes all labor, supervision, service vehicles, equipment, tools, materials, miscellaneous parts, and transportation, and work must follow all applicable Florida State rules and regulations. Awarded contractors must carry Workers' Compensation coverage and Commercial General Liability and Automobile Liability coverage, each with a minimum $1 million combined single limit for the liability lines. Contractors must register with and use E-Verify and comply with Florida public records laws.

The contract is as-needed for three years, with two additional one-year renewals upon mutual consent of both parties. The City reserves the right to award to more than one contractor and to make direct purchases of materials and equipment to achieve tax savings, with those purchases deducted from the contract amount. Unit prices must be all-inclusive of labor, materials, delivery, taxes, rental rates, overhead, and profit, and compensation is determined at the time of service delivery. Contract funding is subject to appropriation by the City Commission. Work commencing before contract expiration continues to completion at the same prices and terms unless terminated by mutual written agreement.

Bids must be submitted electronically through the City's OpenGov portal on City-provided pricing forms, with bidders bearing all bid preparation costs. The procurement contact is Helen Reed at helen.reed@sarasotafl.gov.
