RESOURCES

Purchases below $65,000 are generally processed by requisitions. After approval, the Procurement Department may request supplier quotations and issue the purchase order to the lowest, responsible, and responsive respondent.

Subject to JAA’s Charter and Procurement Code, purchases above $65,000 are generally processed only after Procurement identifies a government or cooperative contract eligible for piggyback or formally advertises a solicitation for competition, e.g., Invitation to Bid, Invitation to Negotiate, Request for Proposal, Request for Qualifications, and/or Request for Information. All Procurement issued competitive solicitations are electronically received, with Bid openings held virtually for public access to audible reading of the receipts. After due diligence by Procurement, in review of minimum and mandatory requirements, award will be made to the lowest, responsible and responsive Bidder or all responsible and responsive proposals will be released for evaluation by a selected committee (Evaluation Committee) of JAA personnel. Evaluation meetings are held virtually for public access to audible discussion and scoring of each proposal and the Evaluation Committee’s recommendation of award. Awards resulting in a cost exceeding $325,000 over the term of award are submitted to JAA Executive Staff (Awards Committee) for approval to award a contract. Awards Committee meetings are open to the public. Meeting details including Agenda, Award Submissions, and Results are posted at www.flyjacksonville.com > Business Opportunities > Bid Opportunities > Award Meetings & Intended Decisions. The Procurement Department processes the award and issues a contract and purchase order as required.
