Reliable Plaza Glazing

The Orlando Utilities Commission (OUC) is procuring wet glazing services for the exterior curtain wall and window systems of a ten-story office building located at 100 West Anderson Street, Orlando, Florida 32801, through a Request for Proposal (RFP 9132). The primary objective is to improve air and water infiltration performance by installing a continuous, properly bonded sealant system at all glazing joints. Qualified bidders must demonstrate a minimum of seven years of experience in the same scope of work, provide references from at least three comparable projects, submit current state and local licenses, and develop a project-specific safety plan for swing stage and lift operations. Deliverables include all labor, materials, equipment, and services necessary to complete the wet glazing work, with pricing required to remain firm throughout the contract period. Bidders must submit detailed cost breakdowns covering labor, materials, equipment, access and logistics, testing and quality assurance, and overhead, along with a 10-year workmanship warranty and manufacturer's warranty for sealant materials with minimum 20-year coverage. The mandatory pre-response conference is scheduled for April 20, 2026, at 10:00 AM EST, with attendance required for proposal acceptance; questions and comments are due by April 28, 2026, and addenda will be issued by May 12, 2026. Proposals must be submitted electronically through VendorLink by 2:00 PM EST on the proposal due date, with public opening at 2:30 PM EST. All work must be performed during normal business hours (Monday-Friday, 7:00 AM–3:30 PM), and the contract term remains in effect until all work is fully completed and formally accepted by the OUC-designated representative.

No set-asides or incumbent preferences are identified in the solicitation, and there are no restrictions limiting the types of organizations that can respond based on disadvantaged enterprise status. Bidders must comply with all standard insurance requirements including Workers' Compensation (statutory limits), Comprehensive Automobile Liability ($1,000,000 per occurrence), and Commercial General Liability ($2,000,000 per occurrence), with OUC and its representatives named as additional insureds. Additional mandatory compliance requirements include execution of compliance forms including a Sworn Statement on Public Entity Crimes and a Dispute Disclosure form, proof of compliance with Florida Statutes 287.133 and 287.135 certifying no public entity crime convictions, verification of non-inclusion on the Scrutinized Companies with Activities in Sudan List or Iran Petroleum Sector list, submission of a W-9 form, and compliance with OUC's Alcohol and Controlled Substance Abuse Policy and E-Verify requirements for all employees. The contract is governed by Florida law with exclusive jurisdiction in Orange County. No specific award value or budget range is explicitly disclosed in the solicitation documents; however, the contract pricing must include comprehensive cost coverage across all specified categories, and the supplier indemnification obligation is capped at the greater of either the contract price or Two Million Dollars, suggesting a project of substantial scope.
