Pinellas County is seeking to contract with staffing firms located in Pinellas, Hillsborough, or Pasco County to provide temporary emergency labor services through solicitation 24-0976-ITB. The primary objective is to secure qualified day laborers and general workers who can rapidly deploy during emergency situations, with potential work assignments spanning the Emergency Operations Center, logistical staging areas, shelters, base camps, and community distribution sites. Contractors must be prepared to support staff working 12-hour shifts, performing physical tasks including lifting up to 50 pounds and supporting various operational needs during emergencies. The contract term is 48 months, with unit prices adjustable annually. Key procurement dates include a non-mandatory pre-submittal conference on September 10, 2024, a question submission deadline of September 12, 2024, and a proposal submission deadline of September 17, 2024, at 3:00 pm.

The procurement opportunity appears to have no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, though vendors must have established business operations within the local employment market.

Insurance requirements are comprehensive, mandating coverage from responsible Florida-based companies with an AM Best rating of A- VIII or better, including minimum $1,000,000 general liability coverage. While no incumbent vendors are specifically identified, the contract includes an additional $42,000 in unspecified funds. The solicitation emphasizes strict compliance with federal regulations, including equal employment opportunity standards, Davis-Bacon wage requirements, contract work hours, safety standards, and procurement guidelines. Potential consequences for non-compliance could include contract cancellation, termination, or ineligibility for future government contracts.
