About this opportunity

Brevard County is soliciting bids for a comprehensive lightning protection system installation for two courthouse facilities: the Melbourne Courthouse and the Historic Titusville Courthouse. The project, identified as Invitation to Bid (ITB) No. B-6-26-03, requires a qualified contractor to furnish all labor, materials, tools, equipment, and transportation necessary to install new lightning protection systems at both locations. Bidders must be certified by Underwriters Laboratories (UL) or the Lightning Protection Institute (LPI) and possess a licensed electrical contractor certification from the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation. The project specifications mandate compliance with Florida Building Code 2023, NFPA 70 NEC 2020, NFPA 780, and UL96A standards. Key project milestones include a bid opening on August 26, 2025, at 10:00 a.m., mandatory site walk-throughs on August 11 and 12, 2025, and a question submission deadline of August 18, 2025, at 5:00 p.m. The contractor must achieve Substantial Completion within thirty calendar days of the Notice to Proceed, with an additional thirty days allocated for Final Completion, all while maintaining continuous courthouse operations.

There are no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on enterprise types mentioned in the procurement documents. Only one bidder, RUSH Facilities from Titusville, Florida, has been identified in the current bid cycle, with the county having rejected previous bids and planning to resolicit the project. The bid requires a Public Construction Bond for contracts exceeding $200,000, to be submitted within five days of award. Insurance requirements include $1,000,000 in General Liability and Auto Liability coverage, along with Workers' Compensation. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the project involves installing lightning protection systems at two multi-story courthouse buildings, suggesting a substantial investment. The contract is contingent upon fund availability as appropriated by the Brevard County Board of County Commissioners, with bid prices required to remain firm for ninety days from the bid opening date. The county will be responsible for roofing services to maintain system integrity and warranty, while the contractor will be responsible for all other aspects of the lightning protection system installation.
