The solicitation, identified as ITB-26-00311, was posted on June 30, 2026, and responses are due by July 20, 2026. Performance is limited to Hillsborough County, Florida, with all work requiring compliance with local ordinances, Florida statutes, and federally recognized standards where applicable. The award will follow a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable methodology, meaning the contract will be awarded to the lowest-priced responsive and responsible bidder whose proposal fully meets all technical, administrative, and legalrequirements without numerical scoring or trade-offs. Proposals must be submitted electronically through the County’s Euna Procurement system, and failure to adhere to format requirements or submit by the deadline will result in rejection. Contractors must demonstrate technical capability to perform the services, maintain full compliance with all specifications, and provide required documentation including valid liability insurance with minimum coverage of $1,000,000 per occurrence for aircraft, aviation, and marine operations, among others, with Hillsborough County named as certificate holder and additional insured. All workers must be verified through E-Verify, and contractors must certify compliance with the Drug-Free Workplace Act and maintain adherence to WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards for any digital tools or platforms used under the contract. Vehicles used for spraying must be clearly marked with approved labeling indicating County affiliation. No bid, performance, or payment bonds are required, but all changes to scope, price, or schedule must be executed through formal written change orders. The County retains sole authority for inspection and acceptance of work, which may occur either at the contractor’s facility or at the County’s designated location. Payment will be processed by the County Finance Department via ACH direct deposit within 30 days of invoice approval, and contractors may be subject to periodic audits for accessibility compliance. No options or extensions are specified beyond the three-year term, and other government agencies may utilize the contract under the same pricing and terms unless excluded.
