Armored Car Services

The City of Port St. Lucie is soliciting bids under IFB 20270026 to establish a contract for armored car services. The selected contractor will be responsible for the secure collection, transport, and delivery of funds from six designated city facilities, including City Hall, the MidFlorida Event Center, and the Saints Golf Course, to Bank of America. Services are required three days per week on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, with pickups occurring between 9:00 AM and 2:00 PM. The contractor must maintain a strict chain of custody, provide next-business-day deposit confirmation, and offer cash-for-cash change order services on an as-needed basis. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible contractor based on the total evaluated cost. Local businesses may receive a five percent preference in their total score. Mandatory submission requirements include a cost proposal via OpenGov, a non-collusion affidavit, E-Verify form, W-9, certificate of insurance, and relevant professional licenses. Bidders must also provide a bid bond, which can be submitted electronically via Surety2000. The response deadline is November 4, 2026, at 2:30 PM. Payment terms require at least thirty days for processing, and all invoices must be submitted to the Project Manager.
