How to bid on window tint replacement for the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District

What the district is buying

The Central Florida Tourism Oversight District is seeking a contractor to remove existing exterior and interior window film and install new film on interior glazing at its Administration Building in Lake Buena Vista.

The project covers approximately 14,340 square feet: 10,140 square feet of vertical windows and 4,200 square feet of angled or sloped windows. The contractor must provide labor, materials, equipment, supervision, disposal and incidentals.

Key dates and deadline

A mandatory pre-bid meeting is scheduled for October 15, 2026, at 7:00 a.m. Attendance is required.

Bids are due November 5, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. ET. Submit electronically through PlanetBids before the deadline; plan to complete the submission process early rather than wait until the final minutes.

Who this opportunity suits

This IFB may suit a window-film or glazing contractor with experience removing existing film and applying new film to interior glazing, including vertical and angled surfaces.

A State of Florida General Contractor’s license is required. The mandatory pre-bid meeting is also a condition to account for when deciding whether to pursue the bid.

How to access and respond

Open the solicitation on the agency’s PlanetBids portal using the provided “View original source” access step. The portal may ask you to complete a “confirm you are human” check before the page loads.

Register a free PlanetBids vendor account with the agency to download the documents, receive addenda and submit your bid electronically. Review the listing and bid documents for the response instructions, then submit before the November 5 deadline.

Prepare a complete, competitive bid

Read the bid documents and any addenda closely. Check how the district defines the work, what the bid must include, and how it wants pricing presented; do not rely on the summary alone.

Confirm that your license information is ready and make arrangements to attend the required meeting. Review the vertical and angled window quantities when planning labor, materials, equipment and disposal, and verify that your response addresses the requirement to install new film on interior glazing only.

Allow time to review your completed response and confirm that the electronic submission has gone through before the deadline.
