Retail Merchandising Units

The Greater Orlando Aviation Authority is seeking a qualified manufacturing firm through an Invitation to Negotiate to manufacture, deliver, and install ten Retail Merchandising Units and associated accessories, including commercial grade metal bar height chairs. This project is part of a strategic plan to modernize the airport's retail environment by incorporating designs that reflect the Central Florida regional ecosystem and native flora. Performance is scheduled to begin on or about April 1, 2027, and requires strict adherence to ANSI specifications, OSHA regulations, and the use of approved materials and vendors. The contractor must provide shop drawings and material boards for approval prior to production and maintain a documented quality control checklist. The selection process is based on a best value determination conducted in three phases: evaluation of responses, negotiations, and a final offer evaluation. Respondents are evaluated on a 0-5 rating scale for non-price criteria, while price is scored using a mathematical percentage ratio. Key requirements for award include the ability to provide a performance bond equal to 100 percent of the contract value and a standard one year warranty on all units. Compliance with the Florida Prompt Payment Act, the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986, and various federal and state civil rights and labor laws is mandatory. Responses must be submitted electronically via the OpenGov portal by November 6, 2026.
