Real Estate Representative Services

Orange County, Florida, through its Procurement Division, is seeking proposals for Real Estate Representative Services under solicitation Y22-183, with responses due electronically via the OpenGov e-Procurement Platform by 4:00 PM EST on October 5, 2023. The county is pursuing a three-year contract with options for two additional one-year renewals for comprehensive real estate representation services. The selected contractor will be responsible for executing a wide range of real estate functions, including property acquisition, lease renewals, market reviews, building inspections, space planning, and lease term negotiations. A non-mandatory pre-proposal conference was held on April 7, 2023, with a question submission deadline of April 11, 2023. Proposers must submit all documentation electronically in standard file formats such as Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, or PDF, with scanned documents requiring a minimum 150 dpi resolution. Technical support for the submission platform is available via chat, email (support@procurenow.com), or phone (1-855-680-4747) during business hours.

The procurement includes specific requirements for minority/women-owned business enterprise (M/WBE) and service-disabled veteran (SDV) participation goals, indicating a commitment to diverse vendor engagement. Compensation for the selected real estate representative will be structured through market brokerage commissions paid by property owners, landlords, or developers, with Orange County participating in a portion of commissions for transactions where the county is a tenant, purchaser, landlord, or seller. The county emphasizes that no oral interpretations will be considered binding, and all modifications or clarifications will be communicated through written addenda. Proposers must ensure complete and uncorrupted submissions, with modifications to standard response forms potentially resulting in a non-responsive designation. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the comprehensive nature of the services and the multi-year contract structure suggest a significant potential contract value. The procurement is managed by the Orange County Procurement Division under the leadership of Carrie Mathes, with Rebeca Malave serving as the primary point of contact for potential inquiries.
