Question: Dear DeRita Mason, I hope this message finds you well. My name is Chandler Johnson, and I own a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) preparing to submit our first government bid. I’m reaching out regarding the opportunity associated with ITB BCC 37-25. While I have a qualified team and prospects to hire, ready to execute the work, I would be grateful for clarification on a few key points as I navigate this process for the first time: Estimated Bid Range Is there any general guidance or an expected timeframe or length of servicing for this contract or is it indefinite? I understand that formal estimates may not be shared, but I want to ensure that our pricing is realistic and competitive, especially as a first-time participant. Is the bid being submitted for a one-year term or a multi-year commitment? Eligibility and Appropriateness of Questions If any of these questions are outside the bounds of what's permissible to ask, I sincerely apologize. My goal is simply to be well-informed and best positioned to deliver excellent service to Okaloosa County. This opportunity is especially meaningful to me as I’m in the process of relocating to Florida from Nevada to be closer to my daughter in Milton, and I see this as a chance to contribute positively to the local community. I appreciate your time and assistance, and I hope to establish a strong working relationship with your office. Very Respectfully, Chandler Johnson Owner Blue Marlin Vending LLC 970-977-7912 CJohnson@bluevendingmachines.com
