About this opportunity

Palm Beach County's Purchasing Department issued Request for Quotation #700168R/KP on August 29, 2019, to procure biohazardous waste disposal services and supplies on a term contract basis. The solicitation targets a vendor capable of providing pickup, transport, and incineration of medical waste from approximately 60 Palm Beach County medical care facilities, fire rescue stations, animal care facilities, and administrative locations. Deliverables include 30-gallon and 15-gallon biohazardous waste boxes with lids, plastic dollies, biohazard bags in two sizes (40-inch and 23-inch widths), sharps containers in 1-quart and 1-gallon sizes, and associated biohazard training for County personnel. The RFQ submission deadline was August 29, 2019, at 4:00 p.m. local time, with responses accepted via fax or email. Pricing must be submitted as single, fixed unit prices for each line item with a total factored rate calculated using specified weight factors (0.45 for items #1-2, 0.03 for items #3-4, 0.02 for items #5-6), and prices shall remain firm for 90 days from opening and throughout the initial and renewal terms. Required qualifications include current State of Florida Department of Environmental Regulation Certificate as a Biohazard Waste Transporter, commercial general liability insurance of $500,000 per occurrence, business auto liability insurance of $500,000 combined single limit, and the ability to provide 24-hour emergency contact information and deliver weight receipts and certificates of destruction within five business days of each pickup.

Palm Beach County reserved the right to apply a 5% local preference discount to responsive, responsible quoters with a permanent place of business in Palm Beach County or the Glades who submit a valid Business Tax Receipt and completed Certification of Business Location. Small, Minority, and Women-owned Business Enterprise (S/M/WBE) vendors certified at the time of quote submission may receive award preference if their bids fall within 10% of the lowest responsive, responsible bid. The successful vendor will be awarded a 12-month initial contract term with an option to renew for four additional 12-month periods, subject to mutual written agreement and appropriation of funds. The anticipated contract value is $50,000 over the initial 12-month term. No incumbent vendors or existing infrastructure integration requirements were identified in the solicitation documents.
