Description
The opportunity is for hazardous waste disposal services on a term contract basis. Vendors are required to pre-qualify to provide these services to Palm Beach County. The pre-qualification process involves submitting a response to the Request for Pre-Qualification, which includes providing information about the vendor's qualifications, experience, and certifications. The county is looking for vendors who can provide a "turnkey" service, including all necessary labor, equipment, and materials for the disposal of hazardous waste. The contract will be for a term of one year, with options to renew for up to four additional years. The county reserves the right to reject any or all pre-qualifications and to waive any non-substantive irregularities and technicalities.
Some key points to note include:
• Vendors must comply with all federal, state, and local laws and regulations.
• Vendors must provide proof of insurance and certifications.
• Vendors must agree to indemnify the county against any claims or damages.
• The county has a Local Preference Ordinance, which gives preference to vendors with a permanent place of business in Palm Beach County.
• The county also has an Equal Business Opportunity Ordinance, which requires vendors to provide equal opportunities to all segments of the business population.
The scope of work includes the disposal of hazardous waste, and vendors must be able to provide a comprehensive service that meets the county's needs. Vendors will be evaluated based on their qualifications, experience, and price.
