Pasco County is seeking a vendor through Invitation for Bid (IFB-SN-22-034) to provide ongoing property maintenance services for various Water/Wastewater facilities throughout the county. The procurement specifically targets bush hog/mowing and scarifying services for multiple rapid rate infiltration basin (RRIB) locations, including Fox Hollow (18 acres), Price-Altman (55 acres), Odessa Spray Fields (73 acres), and additional sites at Hudson and Embassy & Northwest Matis RRIBs. The contract is structured as a multi-year award with an initial two-year term, with an estimated 12 cuts per year for most locations. Bidders must submit comprehensive documentation including current contract lists, references, equipment inventories, and business details. The bid will be received until 1:45 p.m. local time on November 30, 2021, at the Pasco County Purchasing Department, with a non-mandatory pre-bid conference previously held on November 10 and 17, 2021, at the Hudson Rapid Rate Infiltration Basins. Evaluation criteria include compliance with E-Verify system registration, meeting insurance provisions, and adherence to local and federal law requirements.

The solicitation does not explicitly specify set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. An annual allowance of $20,000 is included for approved remediation due to significant property condition changes, suggesting flexibility in contract management. The contract includes provisions for potential price adjustments based on the Producer Price Index and contains clauses for termination, indemnification, and performance guarantees. While specific budget ranges are not detailed, the comprehensive scope of maintenance across multiple acres indicates a substantial contract value. Prospective bidders must demonstrate capability through equipment lists and references, suggesting the county seeks experienced vendors with robust maintenance infrastructure. The procurement allows for unit pricing for mowing, weeding, trimming, and scarifying services, providing vendors with clear financial parameters for bid submission. Integration requirements appear minimal, with the focus primarily on consistent, high-quality property maintenance across county utility parcels.
