Solicitation # ITB AQ 26 27 41
The Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services is soliciting bids for the purchase and delivery of approximately 610,000 lightweight concrete half-blocks, sized at 7-5/8” x 7-5/8” x 7-5/8”, to be delivered over a nine-month period to designated coastal sites in Brevard, Dixie, and Charlotte Counties. The procurement is conducted under Invitation to Bid ITB AQ 26 27 41, with bids due by August 24, 2026, and awarded on a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable basis, meaning the contract will go to the vendor offering the lowest bid price that meets all technical and compliance requirements. Bids must be submitted sealed with the ITB number clearly marked and include mandatory certifications addressing lobbying, forced labor, drug-free workplace, non-participation in a boycott of Israel, E-Verify compliance, and absence from state-maintained debarment or suspicious vendor lists. While no formal FAR clauses apply, state statutes govern compliance, including F.S. § 287.135, § 448.095, and § 787.06, with false certifications carrying penalties up to $1,000 or 20% of contract value. Delivery is FOB destination with risk of loss remaining with the vendor until acceptance by the Department, and weekly shipments must commence within 15 days of purchase order issuance. Pricing data in the required Price Sheet is malformed and incomplete, rendering the estimated contract value indeterminable. Attachments must be submitted electronically via MyFloridaMarketPlace or by physical delivery to the designated office in Tallahassee, and non-Florida vendors must additionally provide an attorney opinion. Contract awards are subject to annual legislative appropriation, and all submitted materials become the property of the state under Florida’s public records laws. Preferences for Florida-made products, certified business enterprises, veteran-owned businesses, and firms with substantial Florida employment will be applied during award selection, but only after price and technical acceptability are confirmed.
