About this opportunity

Pinellas County has issued an Invitation to Bid (ITB) for Installation and Maintenance of Marine Pilings, Florida Uniform Waterway Markers, and Navigational Buoys, with bids due on February 16, 2023, at 3:00 PM Eastern Time. The procurement covers a comprehensive marine infrastructure maintenance contract divided into three geographical zones: North County (Anclote River to Clearwater Pass), Central County (Clearwater Pass to John's Pass), and South County (John's Pass to Egmont Channel). The contractor will be responsible for removing old pilings, installing new pilings, placing signage regulatory buoys, and large navigation buoys within Pinellas County waters, with potential emergency response requirements within 48 hours. Required qualifications include a valid Class A General Contractor's or marine contractor's license, comprehensive insurance coverage, and compliance with E-Verify requirements. Evaluation criteria appear to focus on lowest responsive and responsible bid, with vendors required to submit detailed documentation including vendor references, certificates of insurance, and E-Verify affidavits. The initial contract term is 24 months, with potential for two additional 24-month extensions and annual price adjustments not exceeding the Consumer Price Index or 7%.

The solicitation does not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Potential funding sources include potential FEMA grant resources, which may introduce additional federal compliance requirements. The contract includes a $45,000 reserve for unspecified services to be negotiated individually. While no incumbent vendors are mentioned, the county will provide signs, buoys, and decals, with contractors bidding on pilings, buoy chains, hardware, and installation services. Pricing will be unit-based, with detailed specifications for timber treatment, bolting, reflective tape, and positioning requirements. The county will utilize an electronic payment (ePayables) system, offering vendors the option to participate in a credit card-based payment process for faster transaction processing. Contractors must be prepared to handle routine maintenance activities and potential emergency repairs, with the county reserving the right to request services as needed.
