Fire- Annual Air Compressor

Escambia County Fire Rescue is soliciting quotes for a comprehensive air compressor maintenance and service contract for Fiscal Year 26. The procurement seeks bi-annual service, quarterly air samples, and unscheduled repair rates for 13 air compressors located across various county fire stations. The project requires vendors to perform service twice annually (in quarters 2 and 4) and conduct quarterly air sample testing in compliance with NFPA 1989 standards. Bidders must submit electronic quotes through OpenGov Procurement by October 3, 2025, at 5:00 pm, with a deadline for questions on October 2, 2025. The pricing structure mandates a comprehensive rate table for total service costs, including air samples, with hourly rates for unscheduled service and travel. Vendors must also provide a material cost table with a percentage discount and demonstrate the ability to service compressors from manufacturers including Bauer, Mako, and American Air Works. Evaluation criteria will likely focus on pricing, technical capabilities, and compliance with specified service requirements.

The solicitation does not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Insurance requirements are substantial, including $1,000,000 per occurrence for Commercial General Liability, $1,000,000 for Business Automobile Liability, and Florida statutory workers' compensation with $1,000,000 employer's liability limits. Vendors must provide proof of Sunbiz registration, a W-9 form, and have the option to upload supporting documentation. While no specific budget range is mentioned, the comprehensive nature of the contract covering 13 compressors suggests a potential annual value in the mid-five-figure range. The county demonstrates a preference for Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) parts but will consider equivalent quality alternatives. Prospective bidders must create a free account in the OpenGov Procurement system to access and submit the solicitation, indicating a digital-first approach to the procurement process.
