General Solicitation for Emergency/Disaster Response Goods & Services

Pinellas County is conducting an ongoing Invitation to Quote (ITQ) for emergency and disaster response goods and services under solicitation number 25-0786-ITQ. This general solicitation aims to ensure the availability of essential resources during declared emergencies, supporting the County's coordination with federal, state, and local agencies. The scope of work is divided into emergency responses, such as debris removal and protective measures, and permanent recovery efforts involving roads, bridges, utilities, and public facilities. Requested goods and services are extensive, ranging from medical supplies, bulk fuel, and heavy equipment to logistics support, staffing, and the setup of Points of Distribution (POD) sites and staging areas throughout Pinellas County. The contract is intended for a primary duration of sixty months, with the possibility of two twenty-four-month extensions. Individual awards under this solicitation may not exceed $150,000. Because many services may be funded through federal grants, contractors must adhere to strict compliance mandates, including FEMA grant provisions, the Davis-Bacon Act for prevailing wages, and various environmental and safety regulations. Mandatory requirements include maintaining all contract records indefinitely for auditing purposes, complying with equal employment opportunity standards, and adhering to non-negotiable County purchase order terms. Vendors must submit quotes electronically via the OpenGov procurement portal, and those bidding for awards exceeding $100,000 must complete the required federal lobbying disclosure forms.
