Shade Structure Fabrication & Coastal Finishing

The contract requires the fabrication of steel and aluminum shade components designed for coastal environments, with stringent surface preparation and protective finishing requirements to ensure long-term durability against saltwater corrosion. All components must undergo SSPC-SP-10 blast cleaning to achieve a near-white metal finish, followed by ASTM A123 galvanizing to provide a zinc coating that resists rust and degradation in high-salinity conditions. The final step involves applying a powder coat finish for enhanced aesthetic appeal and additional corrosion resistance, tailored specifically for marine exposure. This subcontract, posted by Broward County in Florida, is classified under NAICS code 332312 and is open for responses until July 13, 2026. The work must be performed to meet exacting standards suitable for coastal infrastructure, emphasizing material quality, finish integrity, and environmental resilience. While no set-aside provisions or specific point of contact are listed, vendors must ensure compliance with all technical specifications and delivery timelines to qualify for award.
