1-Attachment A - HBL DEMCO Desk.pdf

This is a Request for Information (RFI) document issued by Broward County Library in Florida regarding the procurement of DEMCO brand desk furniture for the Hollywood Branch Library located at 2600 Hollywood Boulevard, Hollywood, Florida. The RFI seeks to determine whether the specified DEMCO furniture is available from multiple providers or if alternate products can meet the County's needs. The required furniture package includes four freestanding 60-inch curved starter desks with adjustable height, one mobile 2-drawer pedestal, and one mobile 3-drawer pedestal. All furniture must feature a Grey Nebula laminate finish with a Natural Oak veneer finish on Red Oak. The County requires that the selected vendor submit all finish and color selections for review and approval prior to order placement. The RFI document references Attachment A, which contains representational images and detailed product specifications for the desk configuration, and notes that the furniture must coordinate with existing DEMCO products currently in use at Hallandale Beach Library.

The RFI process remains open until the posted closing date and time. Prospective vendors are invited to respond through the electronic bidding system and may upload supporting documentation to demonstrate their capability to meet or exceed the County's requirements or to contest the sole brand designation. The County seeks vendors capable of providing purchase, delivery, assembly, and installation services for the specified furniture. The Director of Purchasing retains sole authority to determine whether submitted alternatives are comparable and to make the final decision regarding sole source or sole brand designation, with such decisions not subject to objection, protest, or appeal by responding vendors.
