Solicitation # RFP/Q#2627-003

The City of Redondo Beach is soliciting proposals under RFP/Q #2627-003 for a qualified firm to provide comprehensive day-to-day operations management, maintenance, and operational services for the Redondo Beach Marina. The facility features 58 boat slips, four docking areas, and 25 transient vessel moorings, serving both commercial and recreational users. The selected firm will act as the City's operational agent, responsible for maintaining a staffed on-site office, managing tenant relations, and ensuring the facility's aesthetics, safety, and cleanliness. Key responsibilities include developing an Operations Plan, managing a boat hoist, and overseeing the future operation of a public boat launch anticipated for completion by 2030. While the firm must coordinate with separate property management and real estate brokerage entities, it will report directly to the City. The contract is envisioned as an initial three-year agreement with a 30-day transition period. Performance is measured by strict quality standards, including maintaining at least 90 percent occupancy, 95 percent tenant compliance, and proactively identifying 85 percent of maintenance issues. Deliverables include monthly performance reports, an annual operating budget due in April, and annual summary reports for city audits. Proposers must submit itemized cost proposals covering monthly management fees, hourly rates, and technology expenses, while the boat launch remains an unpriced option for future negotiation. The City will award the contract based on the best overall value, favoring firms with proven experience in marina operations and those offering innovations or efficiencies through bundled submissions with related waterfront service solicitations.
