EXECUTIVE SUMMARY | |
On December 9, 2014, the Board approved ITB #14117-MST Mowing and Grounds Maintenance Service at 189 Hillsborough County Public Schools locations. The district was split into 13 geographically combined zones to improve efficiency and provide the best overall value. Each vendor was awarded one zone, as specified in the bid. Due to vendor default or nonrenewal, it was necessary to rebid zone 2B. This recommendation has been reviewed by the Sites and Utilities Department Manager.
To synchronize renewal periods with the existing bid, the initial term of this contract will be from May 25, 2016, through December 20, 2016, with 1-year renewals for 4 years, subject to negotiations and mutual agreement. The Superintendent is authorized to approve any renewal agreements, per the terms of the specifications. |
