Kathryn Abby Hanna Park - Surfcam(s) and City Boat Ramps - Webcam(s)

The City of Jacksonville, Florida is requesting proposals for installation, operation, and maintenance of surfcams at Kathryn Abbey Hanna Park and webcams at select public boat ramps throughout Jacksonville, with proposals due August 10, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. EST. This is a non-revenue-generating contract in which the contractor bears all installation, maintenance, and operational costs, including communication expenses; the City provides access to existing utilities where available but notes that power and WiFi are not currently available at most locations.

The contractor must deliver real-time, year-round 24-hour video feeds accessible free to the general public via desktop and mobile devices. The Hanna Park surfcam must be operational within 60 days of contract execution; additional boat ramp webcams must be operational within 30 days per site. The contractor must demonstrate one year of relevant experience or equivalent knowledge, current business licenses, financial statements for the past two years, proof of corporate good standing with the State of Florida, and liability insurance capacity as required by the City.

Evaluation is weighted as follows: business description (25 points), marketing and measurements (15 points), financial responsibility (20 points), maintenance plans (15 points), and price/boat ramp site commitment (20 points). Scoring on site commitment awards maximum points (20 of 100) for committing to the highest number of boat ramp sites from an identified priority list. A mandatory pre-bid conference is scheduled for July 29, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. at Hanna Park (500 Wonderwood Drive, Jacksonville, FL 32233). The question cutoff is August 4, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. Responses must be submitted through the City's e-procurement system (1Cloud). Contract terms and award date have not been specified.
