1-Letter of Determination - AirMax Patrol LLC and Rapid Imaging Solutions.pdf

This is a Letter of Determination issued by Utah County regarding a single source procurement for the purchase of an aircraft and surveillance system. The determination addresses Utah County's intent to award a contract to AirMax Patrol LLC and Rapid Imaging Solutions without engaging in a standard competitive procurement process. The justification for this single source selection is based on Utah County Procurement Policy provisions allowing such awards when market analysis determines only one supplier is available to meet specific County needs or when unique design and no viable alternatives exist. The letter formally documents the County's determination that these vendors are the sole sources capable of providing the required aircraft and surveillance system to meet the County's operational requirements.

The determination letter serves as official notice of the County's procurement decision and establishes the legal basis for proceeding with direct negotiation and contract award to the identified vendors. This single source approach bypasses the standard competitive bidding process, indicating that the County conducted sufficient market analysis to support the conclusion that AirMax Patrol LLC and Rapid Imaging Solutions represent the only available options meeting the County's specific technical and operational needs for the aircraft and surveillance capabilities sought under contract SS 2026-10.
