Kitchen Maintenance and Repairs

Broward County is seeking a vendor for a comprehensive Kitchen Maintenance and Repairs open-end contract for the Broward Addiction Recovery Center (BARC) and potentially other county agencies. The procurement requires a qualified vendor to provide all labor, materials, equipment, and services for repairing kitchen appliances across two BARC facilities in Fort Lauderdale and Coral Springs. Vendors must have at least three years of commercial kitchen equipment repair experience, be EPA and/or CFESA certified, and capable of servicing specific brands like Garland, Cleveland, Hobart, and TRUE Reach. The contract mandates responding to service calls within 48 hours during standard hours and on the same day for nonstandard hours, using only original equipment manufacturer (OEM) or OEM-refurbished parts. Key deliverables include quarterly preventative maintenance, standard and nonstandard service calls, repairs for various kitchen appliances, and compliance with HIPAA and confidentiality regulations. The proposal is due on October 15, 2025, with the contract opportunity initially posted on October 8, 2025.

The contract explicitly prohibits subcontracting due to the sensitive nature of the addiction recovery environment. No specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are mentioned in the documents. Vendors must meet extensive insurance requirements, including $1,000,000 per occurrence General Liability coverage and $500,000 Auto Liability coverage, with Broward County named as an additional insured. The contract includes a 90-day warranty on parts and labor, with invoicing to occur within 30 days after maintenance completion. While no specific contract value is listed, the inventory indicates multiple kitchen appliances across two facilities, suggesting a potentially substantial ongoing maintenance commitment. Vendors must provide a detailed Vendor Questionnaire, demonstrate compliance with security requirements, and pass background screenings. The contract appears structured as a service agreement with potential for continued maintenance based on the performance and needs of the Broward Addiction Recovery Center.
