Oxygen Generating System

The Florida Department of Health is requesting bids for two oxygen generating systems for the Jacksonville Fire and Rescue Department under ITB DOH25-019, with sealed bids due August 13, 2026 at 2:30 p.m., and anticipated Intent to Award on August 18, 2026.

Both systems must produce 99% or higher oxygen concentration and operate as self-contained, turnkey units on casters with lifting lugs, running on single-phase electrical power with twist-lock plugs. The first system must fill D, M, E, and H-size cylinders at 2,200 psig with capacity to fill 20 E cylinders and 2 H cylinders per day; the second system must exceed that capacity (more than 20 E cylinders and more than 2 H cylinders per day). Each system includes a 4-valve manifold, 10-valve oxygen cylinder manifold, surge protector, one-year replacement filter kit, buck/boost transformer, three transfill outlet whip assemblies (25 feet, 50 feet, and 100 feet), and owner's operations manual. The contractor must deliver and install both systems by September 30, 2026, provide on-site training within two weeks of installation at no additional charge, and offer follow-up training upon request.

The contract runs from August 1, 2026 or purchase order issuance (whichever is later) through March 31, 2027, contingent on legislative appropriation and satisfactory performance. Award goes to the responsive, responsible respondent with the lowest grand total price including delivery and installation on an FOB destination basis. The contractor must invoice upon completion of all deliverables; failure to meet specifications results in a 5% payment reduction. No advance payment or subcontractors are authorized. Vendors must register with MyFloridaMarketplace within five days of Intent to Award and comply with Florida Statutes regarding vendor registration, workers' compensation and general liability insurance, E-Verify employment verification, and scrutinized companies and minority/women/veteran business participation encouragement. Written questions are due July 30, 2026 at 4:00 p.m., with answers posted by August 6, 2026.
