Rapid Incident Scene Clearance (RISC) Program-Sector 6

The Florida Department of Transportation is soliciting proposals for the Rapid Incident Scene Clearance (RISC) Program – Sector 6 under solicitation DOT-RFP-26-8016-RM, with proposals due by 5:00 PM on May 22, 2026. The effort is focused on providing rapid clearance services for incident scenes across the State of Florida, with performance expected to occur statewide. The solicitation employs a multi-criteria evaluation process with five scored factors to assess proposals, though the exact nature and weighting of each criterion are not disclosed. The award will be made to the highest-scoring offeror using a trade-off approach, rather than a lowest-price technically acceptable method, indicating that non-cost factors will significantly influence selection. Submission must occur electronically through the Florida Department of Transportation’s procurement portal, with no physical submissions accepted, though specific file formats are not outlined. The contract will not be binding until a formal Purchase Order or written acceptance is issued by the Department. Offerors are required to provide proof of bonding and insurance, and failure to do so will result in disqualification. The Department retains the right to reject all proposals if the bidding process is found to be non-compliant or irregular. No contract value, period of performance, or detailed scope of work is available in the provided materials, and critical administrative elements such as payment procedures, invoicing methods, accounting data, and contract administration contacts remain unspecified. Similarly, detailed information on evaluation criteria, contract clauses, packaging standards, inspection protocols, representations, certifications, and special requirements like key personnel or security clearances is either absent or referenced only as included in unattached documentation. The NAICS code 78141505 indicates the procurement is categorized under Incident Response and Preparedness Services, and the acquisition is managed under a state-level logistics framework with no federal set-aside designation applied.
