Broward County Parks and Recreation is procuring a Lake Fountain Replacement for Plantation Heritage Park through a fixed-price contract posted on April 2, 2026, with proposals due by April 8, 2026. This procurement requires vendors to supply, install, deliver, and provide startup services for a new 7.5 HP Aqua Control Series II lake fountain (or approved equal) to be installed on the east side of the lake, including a control panel, Pentalator premium display nozzle, RGBW LED 6-light set with remote control, 200 feet of submersible motor cable, and 200 feet of light set cable. All delivery, shipping, installation, and startup costs must be included in the unit price bid, with work to be completed within 45 days of purchase order receipt. The fountain location is Plantation Heritage Park, 1100 S Fig Tree Lane, Plantation, Florida 33317, with work conducted Sunday through Thursday, and the primary contact is Sarah Maitland at 954-357-5138. Vendors must submit responses electronically through BPRO (Broward Procurement and Revenue Office) and receive a submission receipt by the closing date and time; the County has established a question period during which vendors may seek clarification through BPRO's Messages section. The contractor must provide standard manufacturer warranty on the fountain and lights plus an additional 6-month warranty covering all labor and shipping costs. Award shall be made to the lowest responsive and responsible vendor, with the contract period beginning upon award for three years, renewable for up to two additional one-year terms for a maximum of five years, unless extended by Board action.

There are no specific set-aside designations or disadvantaged enterprise restrictions identified in the solicitation documents. Vendors must be authorized manufacturer dealers with valid warranties and must certify they have not been debarred or suspended by any government entity within three years. Vendors are required to maintain current Broward County Local Business Tax Receipts if maintaining a business address within the county and must comply with E-Verify requirements and Americans with Disabilities Act standards. Insurance requirements are substantial and mandatory, including Commercial General Liability with minimum limits of $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate, Business Automobile Liability of $500,000 combined limits, Workers' Compensation at statutory limits, Employers Liability of $500,000 per accident, Pollution/Environmental Liability with a maximum $10,000 deductible, and Inland Marine/Builder's Risk Insurance on an all-risk basis at completed value with Broward County as additional insured and loss payee. Vendors must provide a Certificate of Insurance or verification letter upon award recommendation or within three business days of written request; failure to comply results in a nonresponsive determination and potential debarment from future County contracts. No specific contract value or budget range is disclosed in the solicitation documents, and no incumbent vendor or existing infrastructure integration requirements are identified. The contract is structured as a firm fixed-price engagement with F.O.B. Destination terms, and the County maintains sales tax exemption status on direct purchases.
