The City of Pembroke Pines in Broward County, Florida, is seeking proposals for the installation of shade structures at Maxwell Park and Josias Dog Park through Invitation for Bid (IFB #RE-24-09). The project involves supplying and installing new shade structures, including a 38' x 20' rectangular hip roof structure at Maxwell Park and two 20' x 14' T-cantilever shade structures at Josias Dog Park. Contractors must provide all labor, materials, and equipment necessary for the installations, utilizing Industrial Shadeports, Inc. or an approved equivalent manufacturer. A mandatory pre-bid site visit is scheduled for August 21, 2024, at 10:00 a.m., with both park locations to be visited.

Bidders must submit detailed pricing, references, and comply with city requirements including insurance documentation, background screenings, and E-Verify system registration.

The procurement appears to have no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises. The total project budget is estimated at $200,000, with a 120-calendar day completion timeline anticipated to start in October 2024. Contractors will be subject to liquidated damages of $500 per day for project delays and must provide performance and payment bonds. The city will waive all city-related permit fees and cover permit costs through an owner's contingency. Bidders must adhere to specific requirements, including using Waste Pro of Florida, Inc. for construction and demolition debris collection and submitting product approval documentation to the building department. The project requires compliance with the 8th Edition Florida Building Code (2023) and all applicable amendments. A one-year warranty on work is mandatory, with contractors responsible for correcting any defects during this period.
