accordance with Section 8A-7, of the City’s Code of Ordinance. From the time of advertising until the City

staff, including the City Manager and his staff and members of the City Commission. The Cone of Silence
ordinance, Section 8A-7, has been duplicated at the end of these instructions.
12. Violation of these provisions by any particular Respondent or proposer will render any recommendation for
the award of the contract or the contract awarded to said Respondent or proposer voidable, and, in such event,
said Respondent or proposer will not be considered for any Solicitation including but not limited to one that

13. Lobbying. "Lobbyist" means all persons (including officers and managers of a legal entity), firms, or legal entities

officer of the principal or an employee of the principal whose duties include marketing , or soliciting business,
for the principal) who seeks to encourage the passage, defeat, or modifications of (1) ordinance, resolution,
action or decision of the City Commission; (2) any action, decision, recommendation of the City Manager or
any City board or committee; or (3) any action, decision or recommendation of City personnel during the time
period of the entire decision-making process on such action, decision or recommendation which foreseeably
will be heard or reviewed by the City Commission, or a City board or committee. All firms and their agents
who intend to submit, or who submitted, E-bids or responses for this Solicitation, are hereby placed on formal
notice that neither City Commissioners, candidates for City Commissioner or any employee of the City of
South Miami are to be lobbied either individually or collectively concerning this Solicitation. Contact may only
be made through regularly scheduled Commission meetings, or meetings scheduled through the Purchasing
Division, which are for the purposes of obtaining additional or clarifying information or as otherwise provided
for in the City’s Cone of Silence. Any presentation before a selection committee is considered to be lobbying;
however, the presentation team may avoid formal registration by complying with section 8A-5 (c) (9), of the
City’s Code of Ordinances. A presentation team affidavit is provided with this solicitation that may be used to
comply with presentations, if applicable. Anyone who submits a proposal, whether solicited or u nsolicited, on
behalf of his or her principal or his or her employer is considered to be a lobbyist and must register. An officer
or manager of a legal entity who is submitting a proposal, whether solicited or unsolicited, is considered to be
a lobbyist. See section 8A-5 of the City’s Code of Ordinances for further information and contact the City
Clerk to register as a lobbyist.
14. Reservation of Right. The City anticipates awarding one contract for services as a result of this Solicitation and
the successful firm will be requested to enter into negotiations to produce a contract for the Project. The City,
however, reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to do any of the following:
a) to reject any and all submitted Responses and to further define or limit the scope of the award.
b) to waive minor irregularities in the responses or in the procedure required by the Solicitation
documents.
c) to request additional information from firms as deemed necessary.
d) to make an award without discussion or after limited negotiations. It is, therefore, important that all
the parts of the Request for Proposal be completed in all respects.
e) to negotiate modifications to the Proposal that it deems acceptable.
f) to terminate negotiations in the event the City deems progress towards a contract to be insufficient
and to proceed to negotiate with the Respondent who made the next best Proposal. The City
reserves the right to proceed in this manner until it has negotiated a contract that is satisfactory to
the City.
6 of 65 14
g) To modify the Contract Documents. The terms of the Contract Documents are general and not
necessarily specific to the Solicitation. It is therefore anticipated that the City may modify these
documents to fit the specific project or work in question and the Respondent, by making a Proposal,
agrees to such modifications and to be bound by such modified documents.
h) to cancel, in whole or part, any invitation for Proposals when it is in the best interest of the City.
i) to award the Project to the person with the most responsive, responsible Proposal, as determined
by the City.

Bond/Security that accompanied the Proposal, and the Proposal/Bid Bond/Security will be retained as liquidated
damages by the City. It is agreed that if the City accepts payment from the Proposal/Bid Bond, that this sum i s

41. Confidential and Proprietary Information. Respondents may assert that some trade secrets, fina ncial records,
and proprietary or other confidential information in their unsolicited proposal are confidential information that
they claim to be exempt from disclosure under applicable Florida public records laws. Such information may be
included in the unsolicited proposal, but submitted in a separate, sealed binder, designated on the cover as
CONFIDENTIAL MATERIALS. A Respondent submitting materials claimed to be confidential must include a
cover letter listing all material designated as confidential and clearly mark each page of any material believed to
be a trade secret or other confidential information/document in all capital letters and bold font as
CONFIDENTIAL MATERIALS. If a document is not totally confidential but contains non -confidential and
confidential information, the Respondent must provide a redacted copy of the document and an unredacted
copy. In addition, the Respondent must prepare a list of all the documents claimed to be confidential or
containing confidential information and on the next line under the description of each document the Respondent

portion of the document is confidential and below the citation the Respondent must copy and paste the
applicable statutory provision (this listing requirement will hereinafter be referred to as “properly list” or
“properly listed” confidential document). The failure to properly list a confidential document or the failure to
redact a confidential document that is only partially confidential will result in the waiver of any claim that the
document is confidential or that the unredacted document contains confidential information. If any person or
entity requests that the City produce or disclose any of said purported confidential information or documents,
the City will advise the Respondent and afford the Respondent an opportunity to protect its assertion that said
confidential information is exempt from production. If Respondent fails to timely authorize the production of
the information or document and/or fails to timely seek a protective order, and/or is unsuccessful in obtaining
a protective order, the City will produce the requested information or document. The City will not actively
contest any request to disclose such alleged confidential information or document and the City cannot guarantee
that the alleged confidential document or information may not be disclosed should it ultimately be determined
not to be confidential under applicable Florida public records laws. The Respondent must indemnify the City
for any damages and costs the City may incur due to the Respondent’s claim that its document or information
is confidential. The City can only agree to advise the Respondent of su ch request and give the Respondent an
opportunity, at Respondent’s sole and exclusive cost, to defend the request for disclosure of the confidential
information or document in a Court of competent jurisdiction or other applicable forum.

PUBLIC ENTITY CRIMES AND CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
BUS BENCH ADVERTISING AND SERVICES
RFP #FN2022 - 01
Pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph (2) (a) of Section 287.133, Florida State Statutes – “A person or affiliate who
has been placed on the convicted vendor list following a conviction for a public entity crime may not submit a
Proposal or bid on a Contract to provide any goods or services to a public entity, may not submit a Bid or proposal
for a Contract with a public entity for the construction of repair of a public building or public work, may not submit
bids or proposals on leases or real property to a public entity, may not be awarded to perform Work as a
RESPONDENT, Sub-contractor, supplier, Sub-consultant, or Consultant under a Contract with any public entity,
and may not transact business with any public entity in excess of the threshold amount C ategory Two of Section
287.017, Florida Statutes, for thirty six (36) months from the date of being placed on the convicted vendor list”.
The award of any contract hereunder is subject to the provisions of Chapter 112, Florida State
Statutes. Respondents must disclose with their Proposals, the name of any officer, director, partner, associate or
agent who is also an officer or employee of the City of South Miami or its agencies.
SWORN STATEMENT PURSUANT TO SECTION 287.133 (3) (a),
FLORIDA STATUTES, ON PUBLIC ENTITY CRIMES
THIS FORM MUST BE SIGNED AND SWORN TO IN THE PRESENCE OF A NOTARY PUBLIC OR OTHER
OFFICIAL AUTHORIZED TO ADMINISTER OATHS.
1. This sworn statement is submitted to
____________________________________________________________________________
[print name of the public entity]
by ____________________________________________________________________________
[print individual’s name and title]
for___________________________________________________________________________
[print name of entity submitting sworn statement]
whose business address is
and (if applicable) its Federal Employer Iden tification Number (FEIN) is ____________________ (If the
entity has no FEIN, include the Social Security Number of the individual signing this sworn statement:
___________________________________________________.)
2. I understand that a “public entity crime” as defined in Paragraph 287.133 (1)(g), Florida Statutes, means
a violation of any state or federal law by a person with respect to and directly related to the transaction of
business with any public entity or with an agency or political subdivision of any other state or of the United
States, including, but not limited to , any bid, proposal or contract for goods or services to be provided to
any public entity or an agency or political subdivision of any other state or of the United States and involving
antitrust, fraud, theft, bribery, collusion, racketeering, conspiracy, or material misrepresentation.
3. I understand that “convicted” or “conviction” as defined in Paragraph 287.133 (1) (b), Florida Statutes,
means a finding of guilt or a conviction of a public entity crime, with or without an adjudication of guilt, in
any federal or state trial court of record relating to charges brought by indictment or information after July
1, 1989, as a result of a jury verdict, non-jury trial, or entry of a plea of guilty or nolo contendere.
4. I understand that an “affiliate” as defined in Paragraph 287.133 (1) (a), Florida Statutes, means:
(a) A predecessor or successor of a person convicted of a public entity crime; or
(b) An entity under the control of any natural person who is active in the management of the entity
and who has been convicted of a public entity crime. The term “affiliate” includes those officers,
directors, executives, partners, shareholders, employees, members, and agents who are active in
the management of an affiliate. The ownership by one person of shares constituting a controlling
interest in any person, or a pooling of equipment or income among persons when not for fair
24 of 65 32
market value under an arm’s length agreement, will be a prima facie case that one person controls
another person. A person who knowingly enters into a joint venture with a person who has been
convicted of a public entity crime in Florida during the preceding 36 months will be considered an
affiliate.
5. I understand that a “person” as defined in Paragraph 287.133 (1) (e), Florida Statutes, means any natural
person or entity organized under the laws of any state or of the United States with the legal pow er to enter
into a binding contract and which bids or proposal or applies to bid or proposal on contracts for the
provision of goods or services let by a public entity, or which otherwise transacts or applies to transact
business with a public entity. The term “person” includes those officers, directors, executives, partners,
shareholders, employees, members, and agents who are active in management of an entity.
6. Based on information and belief, the statement which I have marked below is true in relation to the entity
submitting this sworn statement. [Indicate which statement applies.]
_____ Neither the entity submitting this sworn statement, nor any of its officers, directors, executives,
partners, shareholders, employees, members, or agents who are active in the management of the entity,
nor any affiliate of the entity has been charged with and con victed of a public entity crime subsequent to
July 1, 1989.
_____ The entity submitting this sworn statement, or one or more of its officers, directors, executives,
partners, shareholders, employees, members, or agents who are active in the management of the entity, or
an affiliate of the entity has been charged with and convicted of a public entity crime subsequent to July 1,
1989.
_____ The entity submitting this sworn statement, or one or more of its officers, directors, executives,
partners, shareholders, employees, members, or agents who are active in the management of the entity, or
an affiliate of the entity has been charged with and convicted of a public entity crime subsequent of July 1,
1989. However, there has been a subsequent proceeding before a Hearing Officer of the State of Florida,
Division of Administrative Hearings and the Final Order entered by the Hearing Officer determined that it
was not in the public interest to place the entity submitting this sworn statement on the convicted ven dor
list. [attach a copy of the final order.]
I UNDERSTAND THAT THE SUBMISSION OF THIS FORM TO THE CONTRACTING OFFICER FOR THE PUBLIC ENTITY
IDENTIFIED IN PARAGRAPH 1 (ONE) ABOVE IS FOR THAT PUBLIC ENTITY ONLY, AND THAT THIS FORM IS VALID
THROUGH DECEMBER 31 OF THE CALENDAR YEAR IN WHICH IT IS FILED. I ALSO UNDERSTAND THAT I AM

THRESHOLD AMOUNT PROVIDED IN SECTION 287.017, FLORIDA STATUTES, FOR CATEGORY TWO OF ANY

5) Impose a sanction on, or require the satisfactory participation in a drug abuse assistance or
rehabilitation program, if such is available in the employee’s community, by any employee who is
so convicted.
6) Make a good faith effort to continue to maintain a drug-free workplace through implementation
of this section.
As the person authorized to sign this statement, and under penalties of perjury, I declare that I have read the
foregoing statement and that the facts stated in it are true and that this firm is in full compliance with the above
requirements.

employees, or assigns, or anyone acting through or on behalf of any of them, arising out of this
Agreement, incident to it, or resulting from the performance or non-performance of FIRM's obligations
under this AGREEMENT.
C. FIRM must pay all claims, losses and expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever, in
connection therewith, including the expense or loss of the CITY and/or its affected officers, affiliates,

its officers and employees, is to indemnify and hold them harmless from li abilities, damages, losses, and
costs, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, to the extent caused by the negligence,

including without limitation those dealing with the disposition of Proposal/Bid Bond, if required. This
Proposal will remain subject to acceptance for 180 calendar days after the day of the Proposal Opening.
The Respondent, by signing and submitting this proposal, agrees to all of the terms and conditions of the
form of contract that is a part of the Solicitation package with appropriate changes to conform to the
information contained in this Bid Form. Respondent agrees to sign and submit the Bonds, if required by
this Solicitation, required insurance documents, and other documents required by the Solicitation,

of the Contract Documents. The Respondent hereby acknowledges that no additional examinations,
investigations, explorations, tests, reports or similar information or data are, or will, be required by

underground conditions and Respondent, if awarded the contract, will not be entitled to a change order
for any such condition discovered thereafter.

adjustment for future discovery of underground facilities and/or conditions that affect the cost of the
Work and unless the respondent makes a written request to the City for additional information prior
to submitting the bid or proposal as required in subsection ii above,
d. Respondent has given the City written notice of all conflicts, errors or discrepancies that it has discovered
in the Contract Documents and, if any conflicts, errors or discrepancies have been found and notice
given, the Respondent represents, by submitting its proposal to the City, that the Respondent has
received sufficient notice of the resolution thereof from the City, that such resolution is acceptable to
Respondent and that the Respondent waives any claim regarding the conflicts, errors or discrepancies.
e. This Proposal is genuine and not made in the interest of or on behalf of any undisclosed person, firm or
corporation and is not submitted pursuant to any agreement or rules of any group, association,
organization, or corporation; Respondent has not directly or indirectly induced or solicited any other
Respondent to submit a false or sham Proposal; Respondent has not solicited or induced any person, firm
or corporation to refrain from responding; and Respondent has not sought by collusion or other wise to
obtain for itself any advantage over any other Respondent or over the CITY.
4. Respondent understands and agrees that the Contract Price is the amount that it needs to furnish and install
all the Work complete and in place. The Schedule of Values, if required, is provided for the purpose of
Proposal Evaluation and when initiated by the CITY, it will form the basis for calculating the pricing of change
orders. The Contract Price may not be adjusted in any way to result in a deviation from the Schedule of
Values, except to the extent that the CITY changes the Scope of the Work after the Contract Date. As
such, the Respondent must furnish all labor, materials, equipment, tools, superintendence, and services
necessary to provide a complete, in place, Project for the Proposal Price. If this Solicitation requires the

EVALUATION SELECTION
BUS BENCH ADVERTISING AND SERVICES
RFP #FN2022 - 01
Scoring and Average Ranking
Phase I - Competitive Selection-Ranking; maximum 100 points per committee
member. Proposals will be evaluated by an Evaluation Selection Committee that will evaluate
and rank proposals on the technical criteria listed below. The Evaluation Selection Committee
will be comprised of appropriate City personnel and/or members of the community, as deemed
necessary, with the appropriate experience and/or knowledge. Respondents deemed as best
suited and qualified will be selected by The Evaluation Selection Committee for discussion and/or
presentations, ranking and subsequent negotiations with the highest ranked Respondent.
The criteria are itemized with their respective weights for a maximum total of one hundred
(100) points per Evaluation Selection Committee member. The evaluation factors used for
determining qualifications for scoring and ranking, including average ranking order, shall include:
Technical Criteria Points
1. Proposer’s relevant experience, qualifications, and past performance in providing these
services to Municipalities and relevant experience and qualifications of key personnel,
including key personnel of sub-contractors, that will be assigned to this project, and
experience and qualifications of subcontractors Points 35
2. Attractive style of benches and receptacles proposed including durability, ease of
maintenance, and materials proposed. Points 40
3. Proposed maintenance and replacement plans and procedures. Points 20
Price Criteria
4. Franchise Fee paid to the City. Points 5
Average Ranking Order
Each Evaluation Selection Committee member shall rank each Respondent based on the
Technical and Price Criteria total score for each Respondent; #1 (Highest Total Score), #2
(Next Highest Score), and so on. The rankings for each Respondent by each Selection
Committee Member (Rater) are added and totaled. The total is divided by the number of
Raters. In the example below, Respondent B’s total Rank Score is 6, divided by the number
of Raters (4) equals a Lowest Average Rank Score of 1.50 and therefore Respondent B is
recommended for the award:
57 of 65 65
Respondent B = 6 (Rank Score) Divided by the Number of Raters (4) = 1.50
Phase II - Oral Presentations
Upon completion of the criteria evaluation indicated above by the Evaluation Selection
Committee, including rating and ranking, the Evaluation Selection Committee may choose to
conduct an oral presentation and/or interviews with the Respondent (s) who the Evaluation
Selection Committee deems to warrant further consideration based such things as scores in
clusters; based on the preliminary rating and rankings, and/or maintaining competition.
Upon completion of the oral presentation(s) and/or interviews, the Evaluation Selection
Committee will perform a final review to re-evaluate, re-rate, and re-rank the Proposals, as
described above, remaining in consideration based upon the written documents, combined with
the oral presentation.

City of South Miami Bid Protest Procedures
RESOLUTION OF PROTESTED SOLICITATIONS AND AWARDS
(FORMAL PROCEDURE)
BUS BENCH ADVERTISING AND SERVICES
RFP #FN2022 - 01
The following procedures will be used for resolution of protested solicitations and awards. The word
“bid”, as well as all of its derivations, means a response to a solicitation, including requests for proposals,
requests for a letter of interest and requests for qualifications.
i. Notice of Intent to Protest. Any actual or prospective bidder who perceives itself to be
aggrieved in connection with any formal solicitation or who intends to contest or object to any
bid specifications or any bid solicitation shall file a written notice of intent to file a protest with
the City Clerk’s office within three calendar days prior to the date set for opening of bids. A
notice of intent to file a protest is considered filed when received by the City Clerk’s office by
e-mail or, if hand delivered, when stamped with the City Clerk’s receipt stamp containing the
date and time of receipt of a notice of intent to file a protest. Any actual responsive and
responsible bidder who perceives itself to be aggrieved in connection with the recommended
award of a contract and who wishes to protest the award, shall file a written notice of intent to
file a protest with the City Clerk’s office within three calendar days after the City Commission
meeting at which the recommendation is considered for action. A notice of intent to file a
protest is considered filed when received by the City Clerk’s office by e-mail or, if hand
delivered, when stamped with the City Clerk’s receipt stamp containing the date and time of
receipt.
ii. Protest of solicitation. A protest of the solicitation or award must be in writing (“Protest
Letter”) and submitted to the City Clerk’s office within five calendar days after the date of the
filing of the notice of intent to file a protest. The Protest Letter is considered filed when the
Protest Letter and the required filing fee of $1,000 are both timely received by the City Clerk’s
office. In order for the Protest Letter and filing fee to be considered timely delivered by hand
delivery, the date stamp of the Clerk’s office must appear on the original Protest Letter and/or a
copy of the Protest Letter and the date stamp must also appear on a copy of the check issued
for the payment of the filing fee, or, if payment is made in cash, a receipt must be issued by the
Clerk’s office reflecting the date of receipt of the payment. While the Clerk may accept the
Protest Letter by email, the Protest Letter shall not be considered to be timely received until
and unless the required filing fee of $1,000 is received by the City Clerk’s office and, if payment
is in cash, a receipt is issued with the date of the receipt of payment, or if payment is by check, a
copy of the check is stamped by the Clerk with the date stamp of the Clerk’s office showing the
date of receipt. The Protest Letter shall state with particularity the specific facts and law upon
which the protest is based, it shall describe and attach all pertinent documents and evidence
relevant and material to the protest and it shall be accompanied by any required filing. The basis
for review of the protest shall be the documents and other evidence described in and attached
to the Protest Letter and no facts, grounds, documentation, or other evidence not specifically
described in and attached to the Protest Letter at the time of its filing shall be permitted or
considered in support of the protest.
iii. Computation of time. No time will be added to the above time limits for service by mail. The
last day of the period so computed shall be included unless it is a Saturday, Sunday, or legal
holiday in which event the period shall run until the next day which is not a Saturday, Sunday, or
legal holiday.
64 of 65 72
iv. Challenges. The written protest may not challenge the relative weight of the criteria or any
formula used for assigning points in making an award determination, nor shall it challenge the
City’s determination of what is in the City’s best interest which is one of the criteria for
selecting a bidder whose offer may not be the lowest bid price.
v. Authority to resolve protests. The Purchasing Manager, after consultation with the City
Attorney, shall issue a written recommendation within ten calendar days after receipt of a valid
Protest Letter. Said recommendation shall be sent to the City Manager with a copy sent to the
protesting party. The City Manager may then, submit a recommendation to the City
Commission for approval or disapproval of the protest, resolve the protest without submission
to the City Commission, or reject all proposals.
vi. Stay of procurement during protests. Upon receipt of a timely, proper and valid Protest Letter
filed pursuant to the requirements of this section, the City shall not proceed further with the
solicitation or with the award or execution of the contract until the protest is resolved by the
City Manager or the City Commission as provided in subsection (e) above, unless the City
Manager makes a written determination that the solicitation process or the contract award
must be continued without delay in order to avoid potential harm to the health, safety, or
welfare of the public or to protect substantial interests of the City or to prevent youth athletic
teams from effectively missing a playing season.

Nkenga A. Payne, CMC
City Clerk
City of South Miami
6130 Sunset Drive
South Miami, FL 33143
Dear Ms. Payne,
InSite Street Media is pleased to present to you our response to RFP #FN2022-01, in regard to Bus Bench
Advertising and Services. As you will see in our reply, InSite Street Media has transit and street furniture assets
(shelters, benches, and transit buses) in over 70 different communities along the east coast of the USA. We
believe we are well positioned for this opportunity due to our substantial number of city contracts in Miami-
Dade and Broward Counties. As the City of South Miami’s current bus bench partner, we are confident that
InSite Street Media will have synergies unlike any of our competitors who may be looking at this opportunity.
My name is Keith Thompson and I am the President & Chief Executive Officer of InSite Street Media. Ricardo
Kattan is the Project Manager for this contract, and both of our contact information appears below:
I lead our management team, and have teammates that have been with me since 1989 in several different out-of-
home advertising companies. From our Board members, to our VP, Sales & Marketing, to some members of our
accounting team and all our General Managers, we have bought, developed, enhanced, expanded, and maximized
every company that we've been a part of. Our local, long-term, sales efforts are second to none, and when
combined with our national/regional selling team, we typically ramp up occupancies, then ad rates, at a very rapid
pace. We believe we can continue to deliver the best results for South Miami and are eager to tell our story.
Our proposal constitutes a valid, binding, and continuing offer set in the proposal for a period of 90 days from
the deadline for acceptance of proposals as set forth herein.
Respectfully,
Keith D. Thompson

in South Miami as your current advertising bench provider, along with the other jurisdictions that we operate
in, of complying with any State, Federal and City requirements and regulations and bearing the cost of all fees

with Disabilities Act (ADA) and all other applicable government rules and regulations. InSite agrees to keep complete,
accurate and up-to-date records of all advertising business conducted by it under the contract, to maintain such
records and to include such records as may be necessary with regular payments to the City of South Miami.
STORAGE FACILITIES
Well-established with its current transit bench advertising program in South Miami, InSite Street Media has in
place now and will maintain for the duration of a contract with the City of South Miami adequate secured storage
area for the service and support vehicles, tools, equipment, removed transit benches, and any auxiliary parts at
our 1835 NW 112th Avenue address in Sweetwater, Florida address. At its sole cost, InSite Street Media will

manner affect its employees in the work, the materials used in the work, or in any way affect the conduct or
performance of the work of installing, maintaining and repairing the transit benches. Insite Street Media will
comply with all laws during the Contract term, including but not limited to:
83
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
InSite Street Media | City of South Miami | RFP #FN2022-01 | Bus Bench Advertising and Services
• Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 and its Accessibility Guidelines
• Florida Statutes Section 337.408
• Part I of Ch. 14-20 of the Florida Administrative Code
• The Florida Building Code and all Applicable Building Codes
• Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (where required)
InSite Street Media and its employees/agents will observe all applicable Florida Occupational Safety and Health
Administration requirements, as well as all Federal, State and City safety requirements under the transit bench
program. InSite’s crew members will also wear approved reflective vests when working in the right-of-way areas
so that they are visible to motorists.
PUBLIC CONVENIENCE & SAFETY
Striving to minimize public inconvenience, InSite Street Media will provide a work plan or operation plan subject
for review and approval by the City’s Project Administrator. InSite Street Media will consider the access right of
the public in the streets during its installation, maintenance and repair work on street furniture. All safety
precautions will be undertaken to protect the public and the workers.
INSTALLATION ARRIVAL & SAFETY MEASURES
When approximately 200 feet away from the site, the driver will turn on his or her hazard lights and overhead
yellow caution lights. Upon reaching the site, the driver will look into the mirrors to assure the traffic is clear
before exiting the pick-up truck. Once out of the truck, red cones will be placed in front of and alongside of the
truck, as well as behind the trailer. This safety precaution is done prior to starting any work on removal and
installation of transit benches. (It should be noted that the overhead yellow caution lights remain turned on
while the crew performs all work at the site.) The crewmembers do not commence the proposed work until all
conditions are safe for the workers as well as the public and transit users. If there are any pedestrians present
at the site, our crewmembers will always explain who they are and what they are there to do. If any pedestrian
is not willing to move off to the side and safely removed from the work crew’s anticipated activity, then our
truck will move on to the next site and return at a later time. Once the site is clear, our crew will proceed to do
their jobs. Before the work is started, red cones will always be placed at each end of the construction site. All
of our installation vehicles are equipped with a sign on the rear of the vehicle reading: “CAUTION.”
InSite Street Media’s work crews, in all matters pertaining to installation and maintenance of street furniture
amenities, will adhere to the City of South Miami’s hours and days of service. If the work site has any pre-existing
damage to structures, parkways, sidewalks, curbs, roadways, swales, or adjacent improvements, InSite Street
Media shall notify the Public Works Department in writing.
If property (public or private) is damaged while InSite Street Media is performing work specified or is removed
for the convenience of the work, it shall be repaired or replaced at the expense of InSite Street Media in a manner
acceptable to the City of South Miami prior to the final acceptance of the work. We acknowledge that our
company is responsible for applying and securing any permits that may be required to complete such repairs.
InSite Street Media will ensure that all maintenance work, if on the road, shall be accomplished with the vehicles
facing in the same direction as the traffic.
STREET FURNITURE INSTALLATION WORK
Upon arrival, the safety measures outlined in the previous section will be followed and the crew will safely arrive
and clear the site. Once the site is clear, our crew will proceed to do their jobs. Before the work is started, red
cones are be placed at each end of the construction site. The crew will then set their transit bench template at
the marks to re-check the Field Survey measurements as a quality control measure. We will observe the setback
and placement requirements listed in all Federal, State and City ordinances.
84
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
InSite Street Media | City of South Miami | RFP #FN2022-01 | Bus Bench Advertising and Services
Upon completion of the street furniture installation, a shop-vac is used to
collect all the concrete dust created by the drilling. The crew will take great
care to ensure that dust and debris is not diverted to any storm drains. The
bench is wiped down thoroughly, and a maintenance sticker is applied. The
site is then uploaded into our inventory management system for proper
record keeping. Finally, the unit is inspected by the lead crewmember. At
that point, the crew returns to the work vehicle, shuts off safety and strobe
lights, and proceeds to the next site for installation of benches following
the above-described procedure. After each site installation, the Field
Supervisor revisits the site on a follow-up final inspection of the bench to
ensure the installation is proper, secure, and in complete regulatory compliance.
MAINTENANCE & GENERAL CLEANING OVERVIEW
Per the RFP’s Scope of Services, InSite Street Media will maintain, repair, clean and service the transit benches
to the City’s satisfaction. All labor costs and maintenance work, excluding major repairs, shall be performed at
the sole cost and expense of InSite Street Media. We will maintain the transit benches and immediate
surrounding areas, in a neat, attractive, safe and sanitary condition at all times during the term of the
Agreement, or any extension thereof.
We are solely responsible for providing the personnel, equipment and materials needed to ensure that all transit
benches are properly installed and maintained. Each transit bench shall be cleaned daily to ensure that the unit
complies with South Miami’s standards. InSite Street Media will be responsible, at our own expense, to maintain
the actual Street Furniture site and surrounding area for a minimum distance of twenty (20) feet from the bench
to ensure that the site is free of graffiti, trash, high grass, weeds, and other rubbish. InSite will also clean any
trash on the sidewalks surrounding the bus bench; and each site will be power-washed at least once annually.
Damaged street furniture, due to damage caused by acts of god, accidents, vandalism, etc. shall be removed by
InSite within two (2) business days. Such repairs shall be completed within a reasonable timeframe of the
incident being reported to and by the City of South Miami unless the
required parts are on backorder. InSite Street Media will always properly
dispose of any waste resulting from the work being performed in an
approved facility at an approved site. As your current provider, InSite Street
Media is familiar with the existing conditions of all the transit benches that
are included in this bid. Thus as your current vendor, we are more qualified
than any other vendors, to determine the type of equipment necessary to
successfully provide the specified services. We will select the equipment
necessary to do the job meeting the required specifications. At any point that a transit bench is reported to have
any damage, our crew will immediately rope off the bench with yellow caution taps to indicate that the bench
is out of service. In time when a transit bench is out of commission, our crew will rope off the bench with yellow
caution tape, indicating that the bench is out of service. That bench will then either be repaired or replaced
within twenty-four (24) hours. In the event the City of South Miami determines that a Street Furniture unit
constitutes a hazard to persons or property or disrupts the public right of way, InSite Street Media’s crew will
remove the or bench no later than twenty-four (24) hours of receipt of such notice.
FREQUENCY
InSite Street Media will visit each site daily (5 days per week) for standard maintenance to keep the benches in
“like new” condition. Our operations center is able to dispatch “hot spot” crews to deal with locations
demanding more service. “Hot spots” are transit stops that need more attention than usual to maintenance in
order to be sustained at acceptable levels of cleanliness, and as a result, these locations will receive extra
attention by site visits more frequent than once per day.

InSite Street Media | City of South Miami | RFP #FN2022-01 | Bus Bench Advertising and Services
As part of South Miami’s RFP response, Insite Street Media is submitting the
following trash receptacle design, along with illustrations and specifications.
CLASSIC 32-GALLON TRASH RECEPTACLE
Diameter: 23¼ inches
Height: 29¾ inches
Weight: 60 pounds
Capacity: 32 gallons
Material: Die-formed, welded steel
Coating: UltraCoat premium thermoplastic
Parts: Colored base, Rain-Bonnet style lid
Color(s): Blue, black, burgundy, navy, green, red,
brown, and beige
This durable trash receptacle is easy to maintain and will be a nice addition to
South Miami’s scenic streetscape. The trash receptacle comes in 8 colors, and
can be ordered to match InSite Street Media’s new bus benches. These trash receptacles can either be bolted
down into the concrete, or post-mounted into the soil, for whatever application is at any given location. These
classic trash receptacles are available in either a diamond or perforated pattern, in the heavy-duty, welded steel
frame. A thermoplastic coating adheres to the metal surfaces and ensures a smooth, shiny finish that also
protects the frame from rust. The PVC-free coating is environmentally friendly and UV resistant.
TRASH RECEPTACLE MAINTENANCE
Insite Street Media will install a new 32-Gallon Thermoplastic Metal Trash Receptacle at each bus bench location.
These trash receptacles will be maintained by Insite Street Media throughout the duration of the South Miami
contract, and will be emptied a minimum of three (3) times per week. Insite will also clean the streetscape
within a 20-foot radius of trash receptacle five (5) days per week. If any particular trash receptacle requires more
maintenance, Insite will dispatch our “hot spot” crews to deal with locations needing more service.
COMMERCIAL AND RESIDENTIAL TRANSIT BENCHES
➢ Days 1 of the Contract: InSite Street Media will launch an after-hours phone-line for members of the
South Miami staff to report any damaged transit benches, during non-business hours.
➢ Days 1 of the Contract: InSite Street Media’s maintenance crew will continue cleaning the current transit
benches in designated areas, and disposing of any waste on or near the benches, five (5) times per week.
➢ Days 121-180 of the Contract: InSite’s crews will install new commercial and residential transit benches
selected by South Miami at sites that meet the required FDOT & ADA minimum standards for bench
installations. The installed new commercial and residential ad transit benches will be thermoplastic-coated.
The thermoplastic material has been used in Dade County, Broward County, and Los Angeles for nearly 20
years; and has proven to be the best way to dissipate heat and allow for easy-cleaning of graffiti.
TRASH RECEPTACLES
➢ Days 1 of the Contract: InSite Street Media will launch an after-hours phone-line for members of the
South Miami staff to report any damaged transit benches, during non-business hours.
86
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
InSite Street Media | City of South Miami | RFP #FN2022-01 | Bus Bench Advertising and Services
➢ Days 1-60 of the Contract: InSite Street Media will order new, 32-gallon trash receptacles in any color
selected by the City of South Miami, to be installed at all transit bench locations.
➢ Days 120-180 of the Contract: InSite will install the new trash receptacles, either by bolting them down
into the concrete, or by post-mounted them into the soil, for whatever application is at any given location.
TRANSIT BENCHES DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION STANDARDS
InSite Street Media’s transit benches will comply with the following additional requirements:
• The bench will not be more than 44 inches in height, 27¼ inches in depth, and 84½ inches in length in
accordance with Florida Administrative Code (FAC).
• The bench will be constructed to discourage opportunities for sleeping or reclining.
• The bench will not have any illumination device, either incorporated into the bench or directed upon
the bench, excluding publicly owned streetlights or other existing lights.
• Advertising spaces will be limited to the front surface of the backrest of transit benches. The area of
each advertising space may not exceed 12 square feet. Advertising signage will be constructed of
durable, weather-resistance materials, using coatings that withstand the environmental elements.
• All benches shown will be constructed of durable, weather resistant, low maintenance materials.
Our Benches are available in these colors:
Ultra Blue Burgundy Green Beige Blue Red Brown Black Yellow Purple Dark Grey White
This implementation is subject to bench availability and the ADA minimum standards for bench installations of
each site. It is important to note that, for the advertising bench portion of the South Miami program, InSite will
assume responsibility for capital expenses associated with procurement of new advertising benches and also
intends to fund the capital cost of benches that may not be permitted to contain advertising, provided both
parties recognize the economic considerations related to non-advertising benches and enter into good-faith
negotiations as referenced in item 6 of the City Responsibilities section on page 40 of the RFP. The City will not
bear responsibility for the cost of bench furniture. In the event any potential or current site(s) requires additional
site work prior to installing the new bench furniture (e.g. laying a concrete pad) in order to be compliant with
regulations, InSite will inform the City and provide an estimated cost for site work.
COMMERCIAL BENCH ROLL-OUT: Over the course of the first six months of the contract, weather permitting,
InSite Street Media will install new advertising “commercial” benches, which are a style and color scheme of
South Miami’s choosing. InSite’s commercial ad benches (as well as the ad panel frame and ad panel cap) are
composed of a closed cell thermoplastic smooth surface. Being a smooth closed cell texture keeps graffiti and
paints from penetrating the material, so it is very easy to keep the benches in nearly mint condition after several
years of being situated in outdoor settings in various challenging climates. Nearly all foreign substances are easily
removed with wipe-down using City-approved solvents. The thermoplastic coating, which averages between 35-
40 mills in thickness, also allows for heat to dissipate. This keeps the seat cooler than it would be with just a
standard powder coating used by most bench companies. The thermoplastic coating comes in a variety of colors
so that it can match the existing City of South Miami’s Streetscape. As your current vendor, we would coordinate
the removal of the old benches and the installation of the new benches to ensure that there is no disruption in
service to the community.

Miami to choose from. All of these non-advertising, residential benches meet or exceed hurricane wind

InSite Street Media | City of South Miami | RFP #FN2022-01 | Bus Bench Advertising and Services
The merger brought together a management team made up of several highly successful out of home veterans
with well over 160 years of combined industry experience. InSite Street Media now has more than 15,000 faces
and contracts.
InSite Street Media has a total of over 100 employees in 12 sales offices throughout the United States. The core
company originally operated under the name of Culver-Amherst, LLC, but was later purchased by The Wicks
Group of Companies, LLC, who changed the name in 2006 to Signal Outdoor Advertising, LLC. The company was
strengthened in 2013 with new, well-funded owners, Atlanta, GA based MSouth Equity Partners. In 2018, Signal
Outdoor Advertising merged with Martin Outdoor Media, LLC to take on management of over 6,000 bus benches
in L.A. and an additional 2,700 advertising units in South Florida. The name of the merged entity was changed to
Apex Outdoor Advertising, LLC with the DBA InSite Street Media, the name under which it currently operates.
On the revenue generation side, InSite Street Media has cultivated a large and diverse portfolio of local, regional
and national clients, including AT&T, Verizon, Universal, Warner Brothers, 7-Eleven, Google, Bank of America,
Nissan, Disney, State Farm, GEICO, Starbucks, Subway,
McDonalds, Coca-Cola, Best Buy and many others.
However, the company’s largest and fastest growing
business segment is comprised of local advertisers
interested in reaching local customers. InSite Street
Media maintains a client portfolio of over 5,000 local
businesses that include restaurants, real estate
agencies, automobile dealers, lawyers, banks,
hospitals, fast food franchises and retailers. In
addition, InSite Street Media provides public service
advertising space to non-profit organizations serving
communities in which we operate. As a premier
operator of out-of-home advertising programs, InSite Street Media has the experience and resources to ensure
the continuation of a successful and profitable bus bench program for the City of South Miami.
Toward that goal, InSite Street Media and its executives have successfully operated municipal contracts in many
states across America. We currently have full-service bus shelter, bus bench, and bus transit operations in over
70 different municipalities; a listing of those is shown below. Note that InSite Street Media already operates in
South Miami, and many of its neighboring cities, which will benefit the City’s program through the synergies
achieved in both sales and operations. There have been, and will continue to be, many cross-selling
opportunities and operational efficiencies, in addition to having more potential respondents available to help
with weather related issues and in emergency situations.
Historically prior to COVID, InSite Street Media generated approximately $20,000,000 annually in advertising
revenues. More than 95% from transit related businesses; $10,000,000 from shelters; $2,000,000 from transit
advertising; and over $8,000,000 in advertising benches. The balance of our revenue comes from traditional
outdoor advertising.
InSite Street Media has a significant presence in some of the most valuable advertising markets in the United
States, with over 15,000 advertising faces. We operate transit benches, transit shelters, and bus advertising in
the following markets:
• Miami: transit shelters, transit benches
• Tampa: transit shelters, transit benches

DEDICATED SALES FORCE
In addition to our local Long Island sales team, InSite Street Media has a national/regional sales team that
currently sells advertising space for all our offices, including our Long Island region. InSite Street Media has one
of the most experienced and knowledgeable sales teams in the Country. But our key to success lies in our
approach to our dedicated, heavy, local sales effort, as will be the case in South Miami. InSite Street Media
develops its own in-house employees to function as the local sales force in the markets it serves and is thereby
able to represent our partner's advertising programs and achieve the highest revenue generation possible. Our
sales force will be focused on selling the assets of this franchise and their efforts will not be diluted with sales of
other traditional outdoor assets such as billboards.
InSite Street Media is excited about the potential to renew our partnership with South Miami as the Cityship’s
street furniture partner. The COVID era has accelerated dramatic changes in the OOH and street furniture
industries. The public-private-partnership (PPP) economic model
emerging out of the depths of the COVID environment is one where equity
between the municipality and private enterprise is front and center.
Specifically, as it relates to a potential PPP between the City of South
Miami and InSite Street Media, we are highly confident that the value
proposition InSite offers South Miami is the best option. The foundation
of the value proposition begins with ensuring an optimal streetscape
through daily execution of a solid and reliable maintenance and upkeep
program. At no cost to the City of South Miami, InSite will provide a
professionally managed maintenance program, will supply the City with
new transit benches, and will maintain them in pristine condition. InSite’s
value proposition foundation is supported by a large team of advertising
sales professionals and managers who already operate street furniture programs throughout South Miami and
its neighboring communities. In addition to a well-developed local book of business, we enjoy a highly effective
team of national and regional advertising sales executives that will bring larger brand budgets to South Miami’s
program. InSite Street Media’s proven track record successfully demonstrates a keen ability to generate revenue
that will ensure the program is both a streetscape and economic success for the City of South Miami.

InSite Street Media | City of South Miami | RFP #FN2022-01 | Bus Bench Advertising and Services
InSite Street Media has a strong track record of providing advertisers with marketing solutions leveraging the
power and unavoidable reach of out-of-home advertising, thereby driving revenue increases from national,
regional, and local advertisers. InSite Street Media is convinced that its combination of local marketing expertise,
ability to secure revenue from national advertisers, focus on hyperlocal sales in support of small business
merchants, deep experience in the area of multicultural sales, coupled with a keen understanding of potential
and evolving new technologies is unmatched by any other potential partner.
LOCAL SALES PLAN
InSite Street Media is a nationwide leader in monetizing transit benches, in several major markets throughout
the country. Our team has deep experience in advertising sales and has been responsible for hundreds of millions
of dollars in successful campaigns executed. While other, larger outdoor advertising companies treat local sales
as an afterthought, we believe that local and small business advertisers are the heart of a properly run Street
Furniture advertising program. It is well known that most new hires in the United States are done by small
business. And yet, it is increasingly difficult for the small business segment to find efficient ways to advertise.
Four full-time sales employees on staff based in InSite’s Miami/Ft. Lauderdale offices have over 125 years
combined experience working with local and regional Miami-based agencies and clients. Outdoor advertising is
the only media not served through online/mobile platforms that is gaining audience in this digital age. The fact
remains that small businesses are usually priced out of the market for many out-of-home options or lost in the
crowd with Internet and digital options. In many cases, OOH is of interest and can be effective means for a local
business to reach an audience that is relevant to it, given OOH’s unique ability to target geographical sub-
markets, also known as hyper-local targeting.
InSite Street Media’s sales program that caters to the small business owner and the revenue from the general
South Miami market is not nearly as subject to the cyclical nature of national advertising dollars. For instance,
many ads for national campaigns are limited to the roll-out of a new product or short-term promotion, such as
the release of a technology or mobile/telecom offer, new movie or streaming content, the debut of a broadcast,
cable or streaming television program, etc. Meanwhile small businesses often advertise their services for the
long-haul and thus depend on the more affordable options as a means to create awareness in the local
neighborhood for their business. Our array of services helps small businesses succeed (from professional ads to
full-service printing, to proper placement of the advertisement), and ultimately improves the overall business
atmosphere of the municipalities in which it serves. InSite Street Media develops its own in-house employees to
function as the local sales force in the markets it serves and is thereby able to represent our partner's advertising
programs and achieve the highest revenue generation possible. We have a robust sales team composed of 8
people in our Miami office, and all will be tasked with selling the South Miami transit benches.
MARKET PROFILE & POSITIONING
InSite Street Media engages in a consultative, audience-first, sales approach. The more we know about the
audience we deliver, the faster we can pinpoint the most likely potential advertisers interested in reaching that
audience. Using the most robust data on the American consumer, Claritas’ PRIZM Premier identifies over 68
different segments, allowing our sales staff to educate marketers about the audiences we can deliver and enable
targeting advertising with greater precision. Below is a sample of our audience targeting capabilities using six
PRIZM audience segments in South Miami. PRIZM can serve as a complete tool for analyzing customers,
implementing strategies, and measuring outcomes and results. For sales, market segmentation that has already
been done allows our sales staff to find out who the customers are, what they like, where they can be found,

and the best ways to reach them. In addition, the demographic audiences available as a member of Geopath

Claritas PRIZM Premier is a set of geo-demographic segments for the United States, developed by Claritas Inc.,
(which was owned under The Nielsen Company umbrella from 2009-2016). PRIZM (Potential Rating Index for Zip
Markets) Premier combines demographics, consumer behavior and geographic data for marketers. The
dominant PRIZM segments in South Miami are:
• EMPTY NEST (Upper Midscale Mature without Kids, Age 65+)
Mostly Owners / Elite IPA / Below Average Tech
With their grown-up children out of the house, Empty Nests is composed of upper middle-income older
Americans who pursue active, and activist, lifestyles. Most residents are over 65 years old, but they show
no interest in a rest-home retirement. They enjoy golf, eating out at sit-down restaurants, and
contributing to organizations that support military veterans and political causes that they champion.
• MOVERS & SHAKERS (Wealthy Older Mostly without Kids, Age 45-64)
Mostly Owners / Millionaires IPA / Above Average Tech
Movers & Shakers is home to America's business class, a wealthy suburban world of dual-income couples
who are highly educated, typically between the ages of 45 and 64. Given its high percentage of
executives and white-collar professionals, there's a decided business bent to this segment as they enjoy
reading business publications like the Wall Street Journal, visits to investment websites, and reading the
business section of the newspaper via portable media devices.
• UPPER CRUST (Wealthy Mature without Kids, Age 65+)
Homeowners / Millionaires IPA / Above Average Tech
The nation's most exclusive address, Upper Crust is a haven for wealthy empty-nesting couples over the
age of 65. This segment has a high concentration of residents earning over $100,000 a year and many
possess a postgraduate degree. They have an opulent standard of living - driving expensive cars,
frequently eating out at upscale restaurants, and traveling to destinations like Europe.
• GRAY POWER (Wealthy Mature without Kids, Age 65+)
Homeowners / Millionaires IPA / Below Average Tech
Gray Power consists of wealthy older couples typically living just beyond the nation's beltways. While
some in this segment hold white-collar jobs, many are already retired and enjoying their comfortable
homes and apartments within a short distance of down-city restaurants and activities. These individuals
like to travel, as well as follow men's and women's golf on television.
• WINNERS CIRCLE (Wealthy Middle Age Mostly with Kids, Ages 35-54)
Mostly Owners / Elite IPA / Above Average Tech
Among the wealthy widely suburban lifestyles, Winner's Circle is the youngest, a collection of mostly 35-
to 54-year-old couples with large families in new-money subdivisions. Surrounding their homes are the
signs of upscale living - recreational parks, golf courses, and upscale malls. With a median income over
$100,000, Winner's Circle residents are big spenders who like to travel, eat at quick service restaurants,
shop at clothing boutiques, and attend sporting events.

InSite Street Media | City of South Miami | RFP #FN2022-01 | Bus Bench Advertising and Services
As part of South Miami’s RFP response, Insite Street Media is submitting the
following trash receptacle design, along with illustrations and specifications.
CLASSIC 32-GALLON TRASH RECEPTACLE
Diameter: 23¼ inches
Height: 29¾ inches
Weight: 60 pounds
Capacity: 32 gallons
Material: Die-formed, welded steel
Coating: UltraCoat premium thermoplastic
Parts: Colored base, Rain-Bonnet style lid
Color(s): Blue, black, burgundy, navy, green, red,
brown, and beige
This durable trash receptacle is easy to maintain and will be a nice addition to
South Miami’s scenic streetscape. The trash receptacle comes in 8 colors, and
can be ordered to match InSite Street Media’s new bus benches. These trash receptacles can either be bolted
down into the concrete, or post-mounted into the soil, for whatever application is at any given location. These
classic trash receptacles are available in either a diamond or perforated pattern, in the heavy-duty, welded steel
frame. A thermoplastic coating adheres to the metal surfaces and ensures a smooth, shiny finish that also
protects the frame from rust. The PVC-free coating is environmentally friendly and UV resistant.
TRASH RECEPTACLE MAINTENANCE
Insite Street Media will install a new 32-Gallon Thermoplastic Metal Trash Receptacle at each bus bench location.
These trash receptacles will be maintained by Insite Street Media throughout the duration of the South Miami
contract, and will be emptied a minimum of three (3) times per week. Insite will also clean the streetscape
within a 20-foot radius of trash receptacle five (5) days per week. If any particular trash receptacle requires more
maintenance, Insite will dispatch our “hot spot” crews to deal with locations needing more service.
COMMERCIAL AND RESIDENTIAL TRANSIT BENCHES
➢ Days 1 of the Contract: InSite Street Media will launch an after-hours phone-line for members of the
South Miami staff to report any damaged transit benches, during non-business hours.
➢ Days 1 of the Contract: InSite Street Media’s maintenance crew will continue cleaning the current transit
benches in designated areas, and disposing of any waste on or near the benches, five (5) times per week.
➢ Days 121-180 of the Contract: InSite’s crews will install new commercial and residential transit benches
selected by South Miami at sites that meet the required FDOT & ADA minimum standards for bench
installations. The installed new commercial and residential ad transit benches will be thermoplastic-coated.
The thermoplastic material has been used in Dade County, Broward County, and Los Angeles for nearly 20
years; and has proven to be the best way to dissipate heat and allow for easy-cleaning of graffiti.
TRASH RECEPTACLES
➢ Days 1 of the Contract: InSite Street Media will launch an after-hours phone-line for members of the
South Miami staff to report any damaged transit benches, during non-business hours.
