FC4 Chameleon Synthetic Field Maintainer Tractor

Sarasota County is conducting a Quick Quote procurement for one FC4 Chameleon Synthetic Field Maintainer Tractor, specifically targeting the Siesta Key CDP jurisdiction. The solicitation seeks a new, most current version tractor with precise technical specifications, including a Honda GX630 V-Twin Engine with 20.8 HP, a 6-gallon gas tank, and upgraded hydraulic systems. The tractor must include specific attachments such as a line remover with scrub brushes, a conditioning grooming attachment for synthetic turf, and a high-pressure removal system with a 104-gallon tank. The procurement requires the tractor to be delivered to 425 Old Venice Road, Osprey, FL, with the delivery date to be mutually agreed upon. Key dates include a January 29, 2025 deadline for questions and a February 5, 2025, 2:30 pm response deadline, with all submissions required through the ProcureNow portal. Evaluation will be based on the lowest total bid price, with the county reserving the right to cancel the Quick Quote if no responsive quotes are received.

The solicitation does not explicitly outline set-aside designations or restrictions for specific enterprise types. The total purchase threshold is $50,000, with potential for additional purchases at the quoted unit price within 30 days of award, and potentially for up to one year if the vendor agrees to maintain pricing. Vendors must meet comprehensive insurance requirements, including Commercial General Liability (with $500,000 or $1,000,000 per occurrence options), Business Auto Liability ($500,000 combined single limit), and Workers Compensation with statutory limits. The successful bidder will be required to provide a warranty covering materials for one year from the county's acceptance or the standard manufacturer's warranty, whichever is longer. Vendors must submit insurance certificates electronically to Robin Anderson in the General Services Department, with the certificate addressed to Sarasota County Government at 1451 Cattlemen Road, Building E, Sarasota, FL 34232. The procurement offers potential for additional equipment purchases if the initial vendor can demonstrate competitive pricing and meet all specified requirements.
