Sheriff's EVOC Building Furniture

Volusia County is seeking a furniture vendor authorized to do business in Florida to provide comprehensive furniture procurement and installation for the Sheriff's Emergency Vehicle Operations Course (EVOC) Building located near Daytona International Speedway. The solicitation requires a vendor to supply and install a detailed set of furniture items including 8 HON Huddle chairs, 144 HON Motivate chairs, 4 HON Ignition chairs, U-shape office desks, lateral files, flip-top tables, mobile lecterns, and an aluminum bleacher. The procurement covers furniture for multiple spaces including a classroom, kitchen, instructor areas, reception, and communication rooms, with a specific aesthetic focused on Bourbon Cherry laminate finishes and standardized manufacturer specifications. Key evaluation criteria will include total cost, delivery timeline, past performance, technical specifications, and warranty coverage. The bid was released on July 16, 2025, with questions due by July 30, 2025, and final responses required by August 13, 2025, at 3:01 pm, with a required furniture installation completion date of December 1, 2025.

The solicitation includes several key eligibility and compliance requirements for potential vendors, including proof of Florida business authorization, E-Verify compliance, scrutinized companies certification, and human trafficking attestation. While no specific set-aside designations were explicitly noted, the county does indicate a potential local preference for Florida-based businesses. Vendors must provide comprehensive insurance coverage, including $1,000,000 per occurrence for Commercial General Liability and $300,000 combined single limit for Auto Liability, with the County of Volusia named as an additional insured. The furniture specifications reference manufacturers like HON, National, Egan, and GT Grandstands, with most items coming from the HON 10500 series and featuring 12-year warranties against material and workmanship defects. Though a specific budget range was not detailed, the comprehensive furniture list suggests a substantial procurement investment for this new EVOC training facility.
