FIRE SUPPRESSION MOD (5YR)

Board of County Commissioners · 2026-07-21 · resolution

Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners (BCC) is considering a resolution to authorize an additional two years and $18,629,677.00 in expenditure authority for Prequalification Pool No. RTQ-00862, Fire Suppression Systems Services. This would bring the total modified cumulative pool amount to $48,438,677.00. The extension is intended to allow multiple County departments to continue procuring fire suppression system services on an as-needed basis. The Safety and Health Committee forwarded this item to the BCC with a favorable recommendation. The pool was initially established on October 2, 2018, for an eight-year term and has been modified previously. Specific departmental allocations include: Community Services Department ($56,000), Department of Solid Waste Management ($180,000), Department of Transportation and Public Works ($619,677), Miami-Dade Aviation Department ($16,874,000), Miami-Dade Corrections and Rehabilitation Department ($500,000), and Miami-Dade Fire Rescue Department ($400,000). The pool currently has eleven prequalified vendors, with six having local addresses and three being certified Small Business Enterprise (SBE) firms. Due diligence on vendors found no adverse findings. The two percent User Access Program applies, and SBE measures and Local Preference will be determined at the time of spot market competition.
