3.3 Purpose
The purpose of this Invitation to Bid (ITB) is to establish a three year contract which will provide
for the collection, de-manufacturing, and recycling of end-of-life electronic equipment such as
computers, computer monitors and cathode ray tubes (CRTs), peripheral equipment,
televisions, telephones, and other recoverable and or reusable electronic equipment generated
by State of Florida agencies and other eligible users of the contract, including political
subdivisions, county, local county board of public instruction, municipal, or other local public
agency or authority, and State Universities
3.4 Estimated Quantities
The Department recognizes that there is a State-wide need to address an expected avalanche
of obsolete electronic equipment, primarily computer workstations, in the near future. According
to a study by the National Safety Council, over 30 million computers become obsolete each year
in the U.S., with higher numbers likely to follow. In 2002 alone, approximately 130 million new
computers were shipped worldwide
It is estimated that the State of Florida agencies, and other eligible users, will generate tens of
thousands of units of various sizes and types of electronic equipment. Other electronic devices
such as printers, copiers, scanners, Local Area Network servers and related peripherals,
audio/visual equipment, facsimile machines, shredders, telephones, palm pilots and
cellular/digital phones pose a similar threat to the environment as they become obsolete. All of
this equipment contains components that may be recycled and/or reused, including• capacitors,
circuit cards/boards, copper wiring, modules, switches, memory chips, batteries, and basic
manufacturing materials such as glass, lead, metals, and plastics. These estimates are given
only as a guideline for preparing the ITB and should not be construed as representing actual
figures under the contract
