About this opportunity
Orange County, Florida is seeking a comprehensive landscape maintenance contract for the Apopka Section II area through Invitation for Bids (IFB Y26-119). The procurement covers landscape maintenance services for approximately 32,500 acres, including mowing, edging, litter removal, herbicide treatment, brush control, fertilization, and tree maintenance. Qualified bidders must demonstrate experience maintaining a minimum of 4,700 acres of landscape services and provide relevant references. The contract term is five years, with provisions for up to twenty-six mowing cycles, two turf fertilization cycles, two tree maintenance cycles, and six additional litter removal cycles annually. Responses must be submitted electronically through the OpenGov e-Procurement Platform by November 11, 2025, at 4:00 pm EST, with a deadline for questions on October 20, 2025. The county will evaluate bids based on the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with the option to extend the contract and adjust pricing annually using the Consumer Price Index (CPI-U), with a maximum increase of 4% per year.
The solicitation does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The contract includes detailed pricing requirements for various landscape services, with unit costs for tasks ranging from tree maintenance to sodding and planting. Bidders must provide proof of appropriate pest control licenses and meet specific insurance requirements. While no incumbent vendor is mentioned, the contract allows for potential location additions or removals during the term through delivery orders. The comprehensive scope covers multiple areas within Apopka, including Zellwood, West Orange, Goldenrod, and surrounding neighborhoods, with a total of 206.44 acres of mowing areas and 1,326 trees to be maintained. Though a specific budget range is not provided, the detailed fee schedule suggests a significant municipal investment in landscape maintenance services for the region.
