Concrete and Related Products

The City of Sarasota has issued Invitation to Bid 26-38JB to establish a task work order-driven contract for the supply of concrete and related products on an as-needed basis for maintenance projects throughout the city. The contract is awarded to the lowest responsible and responsive bidder and may be awarded by individual item, group of items, or a combination of both. The initial term is for one year from the date of execution, with the possibility of up to four additional one-year renewals. The scope of work requires the delivery of metered concrete, minimum Class NS, 2,500 PSI, dispensed in cubic yards. Standard deliveries must be completed within five business days of a request and within a 30-minute window of the agreed time, while emergency response services require delivery within two hours of contact. All plant facilities, trucks, and operations must comply with Florida Department of Transportation standards, and admixtures must be on the FDOT Approved Product Listing. Additionally, the contractor must adhere to OSHA regulations and maintain specific insurance coverage, including Worker's Compensation with a minimum rating of B+, as self-insurance is not permitted. Bidders must submit electronic responses via the OpenGov portal by September 15, 2026, as a single consolidated PDF. Required documentation includes a vendor questionnaire, a non-collusive affidavit, a notarized public entity crimes form, and certifications regarding E-Verify and prohibitions on contracting with entities from foreign countries of concern. The City also requires certifications that the respondent is not engaged in a boycott of Israel and is not listed on scrutinized companies lists related to Sudan or the Iran Petroleum Energy Sector. Payment is made upon the submission of certified invoices containing the contract number and Federal Employer Identification Number following the acceptance of goods at the destination.
