Businesses can register through a three-year certification process that adds them to the county's Small Business Enterprise and Outreach Databases. The pricing structure will include hourly labor rates with overtime provisions and a materials markup percentage. While specific budget ranges were not explicitly detailed in the documents, the comprehensive scope of work spanning 250 buildings suggests a potentially significant contract value.
