Recycle/Trash Containers

The Greater Orlando Aviation Authority (GOAA) has issued Request for Quote (RFQ) #23-526-RFQ for the procurement of recycle/trash containers, specifically seeking 14 Bellini Series stainless steel containers with precise specifications. These 24"L x 12"W x 34"H containers must feature a removable solid stainless steel top with a trash funnel opening, directional satin finish, and stainless steel bands. The solicitation requires vendors to quote all items to be considered responsive, with no alternate or substitute items permitted. Responses are due by 2:00 PM EST on Monday, April 24, 2023, with the Authority intending to issue Purchase Orders or Blanket Releases by May 31, 2023. All proposed items must be new, unused, of the current year model, and fully supported by the manufacturer's warranty. Pricing must include comprehensive unit costs with all shipping expenses to the Authority's location (ZIP: 32827), and unit prices will remain valid through July 31, 2023.

The RFQ includes a provision allowing other governmental agencies to potentially purchase the products under the same terms and conditions. Payment terms are specified as Net 30 after receipt of goods, and the Authority reserves the right to make awards by individual items, groups of items, or all or none. The award will be granted to the responsive and responsible vendor providing the lowest overall quotation. While no specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly mentioned in the documentation, vendors should be prepared to meet all standard governmental procurement requirements. The solicitation covers jurisdictions including Orange County and Orlando City in Florida, with the procurement focused on standardized recycling and trash container equipment for the aviation authority. Though a specific budget range is not detailed, the procurement is for 14 units of specialized stainless steel containers, suggesting a moderate-scale procurement with potential for expanded usage across governmental entities.
