In line with the City of North Miami Beach’s strategic plan mission of providing excellent municipal services and a being beautiful, safe and livable community in South Florida, the City requires the replacement of flooring system at the Uleta Park gymnasium. The gymnasium is highly used by residents and Parks and Recreation for many athletic youth and adult programs.
The current flooring system is badly in need of replacement in order to provide a safer and a better recreational experience to its users.
The City identifies contracts competitively solicited and awarded by other governmental agencies as a favorable procurement method which is in line with the City’s Strategic Plan of providing excellent municipal services and being financially responsible.
Sourcewell formerly National Joint Powers Alliance (“NJPA”) issued a Request for Proposal No. #060518 Athletic Surfacing with Related Materials, Supplies, Installation, and Services (“RFP”) and on August 3, 2018 awarded the RFP to Connor Sport Court International, LLC with Trident Surfacing, Inc. as the authorized dealer in South Florida for a four (4) year term with the option to renew for one (1) additional year.
Section 3-4.3 of the City’s Code of Ordinances allows for the use of other governmental entities’ contracts upon a determination that the supplies, materials, equipment or contractual services needed by the City were purchased using solicitation procedures which are substantially equivalent to the City’s Purchasing Guidelines.
In accordance with the terms and conditions of the RFP, Trident Surfacing, Inc. has provided the City with a quote for the purchase and installation of gymnasium flooring in an estimated amount of $128,213.
Section 3-3.14 of the City’s Code of Ordinances provides that contracts in excess of fifty thousand dollars ($50,000.00) shall be awarded by the City Commission.
