Tips for Winning Landscaping & Grounds Contracts in Florida

  • ✓Federal grounds maintenance contracts are often set aside for small businesses, especially service-disabled veteran-owned (SDVOSB) firms. The VA's Veterans First program gives priority to veteran-owned businesses for national cemetery and medical center grounds maintenance.
  • ✓Highway landscaping and vegetation management contracts through state DOTs are large-volume opportunities. These typically require traffic control certifications and sometimes herbicide applicator licenses.
  • ✓Integrated Pest Management (IPM) plans are increasingly required in government landscaping contracts. Federal agencies must follow Executive Order 13148 guidelines for environmentally sound pest management. Demonstrating IPM expertise is a competitive differentiator.

Landscaping & Grounds RFP FAQ

How are government grounds maintenance contracts structured?

Most government grounds maintenance contracts are fixed-price, performance-based contracts awarded for a base year plus 2-4 option years. They specify mowing frequency, seasonal planting schedules, snow removal, tree care, and irrigation maintenance. Performance is measured against quality standards, and contracts may include liquidated damages for non-compliance.

What licenses and certifications are needed?

State pesticide applicator licenses are typically required. ISA Certified Arborist is valuable for tree care work. Irrigation Association (IA) certifications help for irrigation system maintenance. State contractor licenses may be required depending on the scope. Davis-Bacon prevailing wages may apply to federally funded landscaping construction projects.

Are there small business opportunities in government landscaping?

Yes: landscaping is one of the most common small business set-aside categories in federal procurement. Many contracts are set aside for SDVOSB, 8(a), HUBZone, or WOSB firms. State and local governments often have their own small business or local business preference programs for grounds maintenance.

What is the Service Contract Act and how does it apply?

The McNamara-O'Hara Service Contract Act (41 U.S.C. § 6701) requires contractors on federal service contracts over $2,500 to pay prevailing wages and fringe benefits as determined by the Department of Labor. This applies to most federal grounds maintenance contracts (not Davis-Bacon, which covers construction). Wage determinations vary by locality and job classification: build SCA rates into your pricing before bidding.
