Annual Pump Services for Flowable Concrete and Flow-Fill

The City of Lakeland is soliciting proposals from qualified contractors to provide on‑call pump services for flowable concrete and flow‑fill throughout the 2026‑2027 fiscal year, with the possibility of up to four one‑year renewals. Two contractors will be selected—a primary and a secondary—so the City can secure competitive rates and ensure service continuity. The contract runs from October 1 2026 to September 30 2027 and covers equipment rental, labor, and any associated materials needed for concrete pumping, repairs, and new construction. Proposals must be submitted electronically by September 25 2026, with questions due by September 18 2026. Evaluation will be based on price (60 %), delivery schedule/availability (25 %), and proximity to the City (15 %). The award may consider experience, qualifications, and other factors beyond cost. • Primary/secondary contractor model to ensure backup capacity. • Service scope: on‑demand concrete pumping, equipment rental, and flow‑fill for repairs and new structures. • Contract term: 1 year (Oct 1 2026 – Sep 30 2027) with up to four optional 1‑year renewals. • Mandatory bid bond of 5 % and required insurance (CGL, auto, workers’ comp, excess liability). • Submission portal: OpenGov (https://secure.procurenow.com/portal/lakelandgov). • Evaluation criteria: price (60 %), 24‑hour availability (25 %), local proximity (15 %). • Contact: Linda Alspaugh, Purchasing Agent.
