AWARDED PURSUANT TO T E NATIONAL JOINT POWERS ALLIANCE (NJPA)
COMPETITVELY SOLICITED CONTRACT FOR CONSTRUCTION SERVICES
Section 255.20, Florida Statutes exempts construction projects under $300,000 from formal
competitive solicitation requirements. Nonetheless, the Administration believes it is prudent to
establish a process, which includes assuring that qualified contractors are performing the work and
competitive pricing, when awarding projects under the threshold established in Florida Statutes,
while still expediting the award and completion of these projects. With these goals in mind, the
Administration has pursued utilizing a process known as indefinite quantity contract (IQC) for
construction services. The IQC process is used extensively by the local, state and federal
governmental agencies throughout the United States to expedite the delivery of construction
projects. The City Commission, at its April 23, 2014, meeting approved a recommendation by the
Administration to utilize the IQC process to expedite the delivery of construction projects under
$250,000 or for emergency projects as approved by the City Manager.
The City, as a governmental agency member, is authorized to utilize the IQC contract for
construction services competitively awarded by the National Joint Powers Alliance (NJPA).
Additional information on the NJPA IQC contract is included in the attached Contract Award Memo
which provides guidelines for using the NJPA contract. Following is a list of projects awarded
pursuant to the NJPA IQC contract for construction services prior the City Commission meeting.
