City of Punta Gorda, FL requests proposals for permitting and licensing software solutions to support planning, zoning, and building divisions. Multiple addenda address vendor questions and clarify submission requirements. Proposals due January 22, 2026.
The City of Punta Gorda, Florida is accepting competitive sealed proposals from qualified Permitting & Licensing Software Solutions for the City’s Planning, Zoning and Building Divisions --- Q&A --- Q1: I submitted a proposal on Punta Gorda’s website for RFP for SVC-Permit Software/2526 on January 5, 2026. Since that time, the City moved the deadline for submitting the proposal. I have checked a few times to see if the City has issued an Addendum 3 announcing the submission date change (we are required to acknowledge all addenda in our response), but I don’t see any new addenda. Do I need to resubmit our proposal, or is the proposal I submitted on January 5th compliant with the City’s addendum acknowledgement process? A1: Addendum #3 is being posted shortly. When the addendum is posted, the system will unsubmit your response. Please review the addendum and resubmit your response. Thank you and we appreciate your patience as we work through the number of questions. Submitted: 1/14/2026 01:15:37 PM (ET) Q2: received via email 1/6/2026: I am writing in reference to Solicitation #R2025101/SVC-PERMITSOFTWARE/2526. In reviewing Addendum #2, we noted that the responses to Questions #46, #68, and #89 indicate that additional information is still being researched and will be provided via Addendum #3. Given that the current proposal due date is January 9, 2026, and Addendum #3 has not yet been issued, we wanted to inquire whether the City anticipates extending the submission deadline to allow vendors adequate time to review and appropriately incorporate those forthcoming responses into their proposals. We also wanted to reference your earlier response dated December 2, 2025, which stated: “Please note that the due dates will be taken into consideration when they are posted.” Based on that guidance, we are trying to plan accordingly and ensure our response fully reflects the City’s final requirements. In addition, we are seeking clarification regarding a potential conflict between Addendum #2 and the Bidder’s Response Form. Specifically, based on the responses to Questions #16, #28, and #93 in Addendum #2, the updated requirements for Section 3 – Experience and References appear to differ from the language currently contained in the Bidder’s Response Form included in the original solicitation package. Can you please confirm that, in the event of any such conflict, the requirements and clarifications provided in Addendum #2 shall govern and supersede the Bidder’s Response Form language, and that vendors should respond in accordance with Addendum #2 while submitting the Bidder’s Response Form as required? Thank you for your time and assistance. We appreciate the City’s efforts in addressing the extensive number of questions submitted and look forward to your guidance. Best Regards, A2: Please refer to addendum 3 Submitted: 1/14/2026 01:07:47 PM (ET) Q3: Greetings from NebuLogic Technologies We wanted to follow up regarding the clarification questions we submitted on the portal for Solicitation #R2025101 – SVC-PERMITSOFTWARE/2526 (Permitting Software), released on November 4, 2025.
