Collier County's Parks and Recreation Division is seeking to procure a Robot Field Marker through a Quick Quote (QQ) solicitation, with a specific focus on acquiring a self-contained, autonomous field marking unit. The desired equipment must possess advanced capabilities, including GPS/cellular functionality, the ability to mark multiple sports field templates (football, soccer, lacrosse, baseball, and softball), and include a tablet and app interface. Vendors must provide a unit with a low-pressure pump under 70 pounds, cloud-based storage, and the capacity to paint custom logos and designs. The solicitation requires the field marker to have US-based support, regular software and hardware updates, and a local provider presence. Key deadlines include a question submission deadline of June 6, 2024, at 5:00 PM and a response submission deadline of June 10, 2024, at 3:00 PM. The evaluation criteria will be based on the lowest total quote, with the award made to the most responsive vendor meeting all specified technical and operational requirements.

The procurement opportunity does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Vendors must comply with comprehensive insurance requirements, including workers' compensation, employer's liability, commercial general liability, and automobile liability. The total project budget is capped at $50,000, with the purchase order valid through September 30, 2024. Delivery will be made to North Collier Regional Park in Naples, Florida, with the purchase structured as a one-time transaction with firm pricing. Additional line items included in the procurement are a logo maker, extra battery, extra paint container, extra pump, and extra solenoid. Vendors must complete standard compliance documentation, including Division of Corporations verification, E-Verify/Immigration Affidavit, and a W-9 form, and provide a certificate of insurance naming Collier County as an Additional Insured.
