IWQ 128355 Provision of a Public Nuisance Abatement

Gwinnett County, Georgia, through its Department of Planning and Development and Financial Services Purchasing Division, is soliciting competitive informal written quotes (IWQ 128355) for public nuisance abatement services. The procurement involves the removal of outdoor storage, trash, junk, debris, waste, refuse, tires, dilapidated furniture, building materials, and junk vehicles from county-designated properties, with comprehensive documentation through before and after photographs and proper disposal of all materials in compliance with applicable regulations. This is a one-time engagement authorized by the Gwinnett County Magistrate Court on July 14, 2025, to remediate unsafe and unsanitary conditions on targeted properties. Service providers must meet substantial insurance requirements, including commercial general liability of $2,000,000 minimum, automobile liability coverage of $1,000,000 combined single limit, workers' compensation per Georgia statutory limits, and umbrella coverage based on contract value, with all insurance companies authorized to do business in Georgia and carrying an A.M. Best rating of A-7 or higher. Pricing must be submitted on a lump sum basis for three line items: removal of outdoor storage and debris, removal of junk vehicles, and mobilization and start-up costs. The selected service provider must acknowledge receipt within 72 hours, confirm pricing, and complete all work within 10 days of initial notification. Quotes are due by 3:00 PM on April 20, 2026, submitted to Casey Beauston, Purchasing Associate III, at casey.beauston@gwinnettcounty.com or delivered to 75 Langley Drive, Lawrenceville, Georgia 30046, with questions due by 12:00 PM on April 14, 2026. Award will be made to the lowest responsive and responsible quote, and the county reserves the right to reject any or all quotes and to split awards among multiple service providers.

The solicitation does not identify specific set-aside designations or restrictions on respondent types based on disadvantaged enterprise status. Service providers must comply with E-Verify federal work authorization requirements, provide three references for similar work, disclose any subcontractors, and maintain a valid Gwinnett County occupation tax certificate if operating within the unincorporated county area. Service providers are entitled to retain proceeds from the sale of salvaged reusable materials, with such proceeds offset against the county's payment obligation; payment will only be made upon documentation of salvage proceeds or a sworn statement confirming no reusable materials were available. If the scope of work is reduced prior to service commencement, pricing will be reduced proportionally. No incumbent vendor information, existing infrastructure requirements, or specific budget range has been disclosed in the solicitation documentation provided.
