Street Sweeping Lease

Pinellas County, Florida issued Invitation to Bid 25-0398-ITB for a four-year lease of two heavy duty, high performance 4-wheel mechanical street sweepers with full bumper-to-bumper maintenance, including wear items and repairs. Proposals were due May 6, 2025 at 3:00 p.m. The listing carries a posted date of October 19, 2026, but the solicitation was issued April 15, 2025, so the response deadline has passed.

The compliance filters are restrictive. Attachment A requires a sweeper manufacturer with at least ISO 9001 registration and a vendor compliance matrix covering detailed chassis, engine, broom, hopper, and water-system specifications, along with warranty, service, training, and delivery terms. Bidders must be registered with the Florida Division of Corporations and enrolled in E-Verify. They must also submit three notarized affidavits: a Common Carrier Attestation under section 908.111, Florida Statutes; a Human Trafficking Affidavit under section 787.06(13); and a Foreign Countries of Concern Affidavit under section 287.138. Pricing must be submitted through the OpenGov portal, with a certificate of insurance meeting county requirements.

The county maintains approximately 11,000 arterial and 12,060 residential curb miles. The ITB pricing lines cover the two-sweeper lease with full maintenance, 320 gutter brooms, and 48 pickup main brooms. The February 2025 budget estimate lists 80 gutter brooms and 12 pickup brooms, so the quantities conflict across documents. The budget estimate totals $691,728 over four years and approximately $760,000 with a 2% annual escalation. The initial term is 48 months, with one additional 48-month extension. The county does not guarantee a minimum purchase, and spending is subject to annual fiscal year limits. The source names no incumbent, evaluation criteria, or set-aside.
