Palm Beach County Board of County Commissioners' Purchasing Department issued a Request for Quotation (RFQ) for biohazardous waste disposal services and related supplies, with responses due by June 27, 2019 at 4:00 P.M. Palm Beach County Local Time. The procurement seeks firm, fixed pricing for comprehensive biohazardous waste disposal services including pickup, transport, and incineration of medical waste from multiple County facilities. The solicitation includes six line items: 30-gallon biohazardous boxes with bags, lids, and dollies; 15-gallon biohazardous boxes with bags, lids, and dollies; 1-quart Sharps containers (McKesson Prevent or equal); 1-gallon Sharps containers (Cardinal Health or equal); 40-inch biohazardous bags; and 23-inch biohazardous bags. The contract shall be issued for a twelve-month term or until the estimated amount is expended, with options to renew for four additional twelve-month periods subject to mutual written agreement and Board appropriation of funds. Award shall be made to the lowest responsive and responsible quoter on an all-or-none total factored rate basis, with pricing submitted on a unit basis and weight factors applied to calculate the total factored rate (Items #1 and #2 at 0.40 weight factor; Items #3, #4, #5, and #6 at 0.05 weight factor each). The successful vendor must meet with County representatives within five business days of award notification to discuss job procedures, training, and scheduling, and must maintain Commercial General Liability Insurance ($500,000 Each Occurrence), Business Auto Liability Insurance ($500,000 Combined Single Limit), and Workers' Compensation Insurance in accordance with Florida Statute Chapter 440, while providing a State of Florida Department of Environmental Regulation Certificate as a Biohazard Waste Transporter.

The RFQ incorporates Palm Beach County's Equal Business Opportunity (EBO) Program requirements, allowing for up to 10% price preference for certified small, minority, and women-owned businesses (S/M/WBE) that are responsive and responsible. A 5% local preference is available for quoters with a permanent place of business in Palm Beach County. The successful vendor must comply with all applicable State of Florida Department of Environmental Regulation requirements as a biohazard waste transporter and maintain all necessary permits and licenses throughout the contract term. The anticipated contract value is $50,000 over the twelve-month term, though Palm Beach County reserves the right to increase or decrease this amount as necessary. No incumbent vendors or current contractors were identified in the solicitation documentation, and no existing infrastructure or technology integration requirements were specified.
