Description
The Palm Beach County Board of County Commissioners is seeking to pre‑qualify vendors capable of providing auto body repair and painting services under a term contract. Interested firms must submit a sealed, signed pre‑qualification response by the deadline, be registered in the County’s Vendor Self‑Service system, and meet extensive compliance requirements (licensing, safety data sheets, criminal background checks, non‑discrimination, drug‑free workplace, etc.). The contract will be awarded to qualified vendors who meet the specifications and may be used for multiple projects over the contract term. Local preference (5% advantage) is given to vendors with a permanent business location in Palm Beach County or the Glades, and Small Business Enterprise (SBE) participation is encouraged.
• Scope: Auto body repair, collision damage repair, painting, and related services for County facilities and vehicles.
• Delivery: Services performed on‑site at County facilities or designated locations.
• Qualification: Vendor registration in VSS, required licenses, certifications, business tax receipt, and compliance with numerous federal, state, and local statutes.
• Submission: Sealed package with RPQ response form, Schedule 1 (sub‑contractor list), Schedule 2 (Letter of Intent), certifications, and local‑preference documentation.
• Deadline: August 14, 2030, 4:00 PM.
• Evaluation: Pre‑qualified vendors placed on a list; the County may award multiple task orders over the contract term.
• Preference: 5% local preference for County/Glades‑based firms; SBE goals apply.
• No guaranteed volume or dollar amount; contract is non‑exclusive and may be supplemented by state contracts if cheaper.
