Installation of Window Shades

The Florida Department of Financial Services, Office of Insurance Regulation, is requesting bids on the purchase and installation of window shades for the Larson Building in Tallahassee under ITB with responses due October 27, 2026 at 3:30 p.m., and attendance at a mandatory pre-response conference on September 30, 2026 at 1:00 p.m. is required for eligibility.

The scope covers 277 custom Skandia Kleenscreen 3% Color 2354R Alloy window shades across the first, second, and third floors, with optional sixth-floor installation priced separately. Window dimensions range from 27.5" W × 69" H to 41" W × 81" H. Work includes removal of five existing vertical blinds and hardware, caulking, and paint touchup. Project completion is due February 1, 2027, with an estimated 120 calendar days of work. The contract term is one year from issuance.

This is a fixed-price contract awarded to the single lowest-cost responsive and responsible bidder, though the Office reserves the right to award to multiple vendors or make no award. Invoicing occurs after approval of final deliverables; the Office will not reimburse travel or other expenses. No specific contract value is stated.

Respondents must submit a completed price response form and mandatory criteria certification form attesting to compliance with federal and state regulatory requirements, including non-participation in boycotts of Israel, absence from scrutinized-companies lists (for contracts valued at $1 million or more), E-Verify registration, and absence from suspended, convicted, discriminatory, or antitrust violator vendor lists. Failure to complete the certification form or attend the pre-response conference renders the respondent non-responsive and ineligible for award. Written questions are due October 9, 2026, with answers anticipated October 14, 2026. Award notice is anticipated November 3, 2026. Responses are administered through the MyFloridaMarketPlace Vendor Information Portal.
