Rock Aggregate Products

The Suwannee River Water Management District in Florida is seeking bids for the procurement of various rock aggregate products that meet or exceed Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) specifications, as well as non-FDOT-approved rock aggregates, on an as-needed basis throughout the year. The Invitation to Bid (ITB) outlines the proposed schedule, with bids due by September 20, 2022, vendor approval at the District's Governing Board Meeting on October 11, 2022, and tentative contract signing by October 25, 2022. Bid prices must be guaranteed for one year, from October 1, 2022, through September 30, 2023. The ITB provides instructions to bidders, including details on submitting questions, bid delivery options, and bid protest procedures, and it also outlines key points such as the District's non-discrimination policy, preference for minority and veteran-owned businesses, and requirements related to drug-free workplaces, public entity crimes, and scrutinized companies.

The ITB does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. However, the District has a preference for minority and veteran-owned businesses. The ITB does not list any incumbent vendors or current contractors, nor does it indicate any existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The ITB does not provide any information regarding possible award values or budget ranges.
