1-Notice Of Intent 2027 0013.pdf

This is a Notice of Intent to Award a Contract without engaging in a standard procurement process issued by the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT). The notice indicates UDOT's intention to procure a five-year service contract for DSR 102e under sole source justification. The procurement is being made without competitive bidding based on the determination that one of the following conditions exists: only one source can provide the required procurement item, transitional costs are a significant consideration in vendor selection, or circumstances make standard procurement procedures impractical and not in the best interest of the procurement unit. The notice serves as a public comment period to determine if other interested and qualified suppliers exist that meet the procurement requirements.

The notice indicates that detailed justification documentation is attached and available for review by interested parties. If any party agrees that this proposed purchase represents a valid sole source procurement, no further action is required. The document is essentially a notification mechanism to provide transparency and allow the public opportunity to challenge or affirm the sole source determination before UDOT proceeds with contract award to the identified vendor.
