Proposers must possess a valid ATF 54 license and current U.S. DOT hazardous materials registration, with a minimum of five years of experience.

Key administrative requirements include strict deliverable timelines starting eight weeks prior to each event, comprehensive insurance and indemnification, and compliance with Florida Statutes regarding scrutinized companies and E-Verify.
