Electronic Gate Replacement

The Greater Orlando Aviation Authority (GOAA) has issued a Request for Quote (RFQ) for an Electronic Gate Replacement project at Orlando Executive Airport located in Orange County, Florida. The procurement seeks a vendor to remove two existing Hysecurity SlideDriver gate operators and two 7' x 14' chain link cantilever gates, and install two new Hysecurity Operators (model SlideDriver 15) with associated hardware and control devices. Vendor qualifications include being a Manufacturer Authorized Installer capable of salvaging serviceable old parts. A mandatory pre-bid meeting is scheduled for April 26, 2023, at 9:00 AM EST, with final responses due by 2:00 PM EST on May 11, 2023. The aviation authority intends to issue a purchase order by August 30, 2023, with unit prices remaining valid through that date. Evaluation criteria will likely focus on comprehensive pricing, with no additional fees permitted beyond the submitted quote, and the vendor's ability to meet technical specifications and warranty requirements.

The solicitation does not explicitly specify set-aside designations or restrictions on respondent types. Insurance requirements are clearly defined, including $1,000,000 in commercial general liability, automobile liability, and professional liability insurance, plus workers' compensation coverage. The vendor must provide a manufacturer's standard parts and labor warranty, supplemented by a 12-month installation warranty. Payment terms are net 30, with invoices to be submitted within 10 business days of accepted delivery. While a specific budget range is not disclosed, the authority reserves the right to award the contract based on the lowest overall quotation. The procurement documents suggest potential integration with existing airport security and access control infrastructure, with the new gate system expected to seamlessly replace the current electronic gate configuration at the Orlando Executive Airport.
