Required insurance includes Commercial General Liability of $1 million per occurrence / $2 million aggregate, Commercial Automotive Liability of $1 million combined limit, and Workers' Compensation per Florida statutory requirements.
Pricing is structured on a per-diem basis for two-person and three-person traffic control crews, with optional rates for overtime, weekend, holiday, and emergency call-out services. Awards are made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.
The contract term is three years with two optional one-year renewal periods. Any price increases for renewal are capped at three percent annually unless mitigating market conditions exist; contractors must submit increase requests with CPI-U justification at least 90 days prior to term expiration.
