Two 2023 key west 230 BAY reef with motors and trailers

The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) is seeking competitive bids for the procurement of two newly manufactured 2023 Key West 230 Bay Reef vessels, including outboard motors and trailers. The vessels must meet detailed specifications outlined in the Invitation to Bid (ITB), and will be used in both saltwater and freshwater environments. Bids are due by January 24, 2023 at 10:30 AM ET, with a public bid opening on the same day. The contract will be effective for one year upon issuance of the Purchase Order. Bidders must be registered in the MyFloridaMarketPlace (MFMP) system and with the Florida Department of State's Sunbiz system prior to the bid opening. The contract will be awarded to the responsive, responsible bidder who submits the lowest total bid price, and payment will be due after the FWC Contract Manager deems both vessels and trailers satisfactory and takes delivery.

Minority, woman, and veteran-owned businesses are encouraged to participate in this procurement. The ITB does not list any incumbent vendors or current contractors, nor does it specify any existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The ITB does not provide a specific award value or budget range, but indicates that the FWC is seeking competitive pricing for the two vessels, motors, and trailers.
