Naples Beach Renourishment

Collier County is soliciting bids for construction of the Naples Beach Renourishment Project with bids due September 4, 2026. The scope requires contractors to furnish trucks, support equipment, labor, supplies, and materials to transport, place, dress, grade, and till beach fill sourced from Stewarts Immokalee sand mine. The County will purchase the sand directly and compensate the contractor for transport, placement, and grading operations at quantities not to exceed the bid tonnage. Construction access is limited to the 3rd Avenue North and 17th Avenue South public beach accesses in the City of Naples.

Responsive bids must include the bidder's proposed methods and preliminary schedule for completion, size and type of equipment proposed, qualifications and prior experience of key personnel, prior experience with completed truck haul beach renourishment projects, and references. Prior completion of truck haul beach renourishment projects is a stated requirement, establishing demonstrated capability as an eligibility filter.

Contract pricing is structured around a bid quantity measured in tons, with payment for transport, fill placement, and grading of beach fill delivered. The source does not specify an estimated contract value, contract term, evaluation criteria weighting, or a formal pre-bid meeting or question-due date beyond the September 4 bid deadline.
