Aviation Fuel Purchase and Delivery

The Collier County Board of County Commissioners Procurement Services Division is seeking qualified vendors to provide aviation fuel purchase and delivery services for the county’s three general‑aviation airports. Historically the county spends about $5.5 million annually on aviation fuel, though future volumes may vary. Proposals must be submitted electronically via the county’s OpenGov procurement portal, and vendors must comply with a full suite of licensing, insurance, bonding, E‑Verify, and Florida public‑records requirements. The solicitation follows a competitive sealed‑proposal process, with a public selection‑committee review, possible oral presentations, and a 180‑day proposal validity period. No paper submissions are accepted, and all contractual terms—including payment, performance bonds (100 % of contract value), and safety/OSHA compliance—are detailed in the RFP. • Scope: Purchase and deliver aviation gasoline/jet fuel to three Collier County general‑aviation airports. • Delivery model: Supplier‑managed fuel logistics; all goods FOB destination. • Estimated annual spend: Approx. $5.5 M (historical). • Submission: Electronic only through https://procurement.opengov.com/portal/collier‑county‑fl. • Evaluation: Competitive sealed proposals, scoring by a public selection committee; oral presentations may be required. • Key compliance: Florida business tax receipt, occupational license, E‑Verify enrollment, insurance, performance bond, public‑records compliance, OSHA safety. • Contract term: Not explicitly stated; likely multi‑year based on fuel consumption needs.
