26-34 Clean Fill Dirt

The Bay County Board of County Commissioners is soliciting bids for contract number 26-34 to supply clean fill dirt for the County’s Roads and Bridges Division and Solid Waste Division within Bay County, Florida. The solicitation, issued in mid-April 2026, invites qualified vendors to submit sealed or electronic proposals by May 19, 2026, with submissions publicly opened immediately thereafter. The contract calls for the provision and delivery of contaminant-free clean fill dirt, meeting quality standards as detailed in the Invitation to Bid 26-34, and requires vendors to provide all labor, materials, and equipment necessary for timely performance. Delivery and work locations are within Bay County, specifically at County-managed sites such as the soil pit on Fire Tower Road and the Steelfield Road Landfill. The County retains inspection and acceptance authority through designated officials, including the Solid Waste Division Manager and Public Works Director, with acceptance procedures conducted at the delivery location. Award of the contract will be based on the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) criteria, with responsiveness evaluated on timely and complete submission of bids meeting all technical and administrative requirements, including licensing and insurance provisions. Vendors must comply with Florida’s Public Records Law, E-Verify employment eligibility requirements, maintain a drug-free workplace, and certify against affiliations with certain scrutinized companies to avoid contract termination or penalties. Insurance requirements mandate $1,000,000 general liability and $500,000 workers’ compensation coverage, naming Bay County as an additional insured party. The contract imposes no socioeconomic status certifications or affirmative small business designations, and procurement excludes social or political factors in evaluation. Subcontractors, if used, must adhere to the same compliance and certification obligations. Bidders must submit proposals via the County’s OpenGov procurement portal or as sealed paper bids conforming strictly to prescribed forms, with no submissions accepted after the deadline. The contract term extends through May 31, 2027, and includes provisions for personnel removal at the County’s request and strict adherence to safety and regulatory standards. Pricing details are to be provided within proposals but were not disclosed in the available documentation.
