About this opportunity

Hillsborough County Public Schools (HCPS) has issued an Invitation to Quote (ITQ) for parts cleaner machines and services targeting vehicle garages across five transportation department locations in the Tampa Bay area. The procurement seeks a comprehensive service contract involving the removal and disposal of used solvents, refilling machines with new solvents, and providing all necessary labor, materials, and equipment for parts cleaning operations. The initial contract term is one year, with options to renew for four additional one-year periods. Vendors must submit proposals through the VendorLink online portal by June 10, 2025, at 3:00 PM, with the last day for questions being May 27, 2025. Bidders are required to provide proof of insurance, comply with safety regulations, and meet administrative requirements including E-Verify compliance and drug-free workplace certification. The evaluation criteria will focus on price, ability to meet specifications, and overall responsiveness, with HCPS reserving the right to award to multiple vendors or reject all bids. Specific requirements include emergency service response times, defined work hours, invoicing procedures, and warranty terms for the parts cleaner machines.

The solicitation encourages participation from diverse vendors, with opportunities for Small Business Enterprises to register with HCPS's Office of Supplier Diversity. Vendors can self-identify characteristics such as service-disabled veteran status, minority classification, and gender, with certification options through various local and state agencies including the City of Tampa and Florida State Minority Supplier Development Council. While no specific set-aside designations are explicitly stated, the procurement documents suggest a preference for diverse and small business participation. The contract covers six machines across locations in Thonotosassa, Plant City, Apollo Beach, and Tampa, with pricing structures allowing for base costs per location and a cost-plus markup not exceeding 15% for as-needed services. Vendors must complete a comprehensive pricing sheet, provide specific machine model numbers, and submit detailed proposals. Additionally, all non-governmental contractors must complete a vendor affidavit certifying compliance with anti-human trafficking regulations under Florida Statutes, demonstrating HCPS's commitment to ethical procurement practices.
