ITN-DEM-23-24-004 Leased Space - Leon County

The Florida Division of Emergency Management has issued an Invitation to Negotiate (ITN) for leased warehouse/office space and related infrastructure in Leon County, Florida. The Division is seeking detailed and competitive proposals for between 15,000 and 20,000 usable square feet of contiguous, climate-controlled warehouse, storage, and office space to support emergency response efforts. Replies are due on August 9, 2023, with an anticipated lease start date of October 1, 2023 and a 3-year initial term with a minimum of one 3-year renewal option. The proposed space must be delivered on a "turn-key" basis and meet the Division's detailed specifications outlined in the ITN. Evaluation criteria include fiscal costs, location, premises, and parking. The lease must be structured as an "industrial gross" lease, with the lessor responsible for all operating expenses except electricity, utilities, and janitorial. The Division will select the proposal that provides the best overall value.

The ITN does not mention any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. There is also no information provided about incumbent vendors, current contractors, or existing infrastructure and technology that requires integration. The ITN does not specify an award value or budget range for this procurement.
