About this opportunity

Portage County, Wisconsin is seeking a comprehensive garbage and recycling disposal services contract for its Facilities and Parks Departments through a competitive bid process (RFB #2018-31). The procurement covers waste management services for sixteen total locations, including seven park sites (Collins Park, Sunset Lake Park, Jordan Park, DuBay Park, Lake Emily, Lake Helen, and Standing Rocks) and nine facility locations such as the County Annex, Law Enforcement Center, Courthouse, and Highway Department. The selected vendor must provide all necessary dumpsters and recycling bins in sizes ranging from 1-10 yards, with variable pickup frequencies determined by each location's specific requirements. Bidders must demonstrate five years of experience in garbage and recycling services and submit three professional references. The bid submission deadline is September 12, 2018 at 2:00 PM, with a contract term from January 1, 2019 through December 31, 2019, and potential for three additional one-year renewal periods. Evaluation criteria will focus on lowest responsive and responsible bidder meeting all specifications, with the county reserving the right to award based on lowest total cost for parks and facilities services.

The procurement does not specify specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises. Contractors must maintain a Certificate of Insurance with $1,000,000 minimum coverage for liability and automobile insurance. The county will impose liquidated damages of $10 per dumpster or bin for late pickups and reserves the right to terminate the contract with 10 days' written notice. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the bid documents require firm, all-inclusive pricing with potential for cost increase requests supported by industry documentation before renewal periods. Bidders are required to secure all necessary licenses and permits, and the county is exempt from federal excise and Wisconsin sales taxes. Billing will be structured quarterly for park services with final payment upon seasonal dumpster removal, and monthly for facility services. The procurement allows for potential bundled discounts if a vendor wins both parks and facilities service contracts.
