Vendors must submit a sealed, signed pre‑qualification package by the deadline to be added to the county’s pre‑qualified vendor list, after which individual work orders (each not to exceed $99,999) may be awarded on a project‑by‑project basis.
• Scope: Supply, repair, replace, and install window treatment systems for county facilities.
• Contract Type: Term contract with multiple individual task orders; vendors are pre‑qualified once and then compete for each order.
• Submission: Sealed package, signed by an authorized agent, due May 15 2030 4:00 PM (Palm Beach County Purchasing Department, 50 S. Military Trail, Suite #110, West Palm Beach, FL 33415).
• Eligibility: Must have active Florida business tax receipt, relevant licenses/certifications, and comply with county nondiscrimination, drug‑free workplace, and anti‑boycott policies.
• Evaluation: Lowest responsive, responsible vendor wins each task order unless a certified Small Business Enterprise (SBE) bid is within 10 % of the lowest non‑SBE bid.
• Mandatory Requirements: Vendor registration in the VSS system, fingerprint‑based criminal background checks for personnel accessing critical facilities, and submission of all required certifications.
• Reporting: Vendors must retain records for five years and provide public‑record requests as required.
