About this file
This is a Notice of Intent to Award a Contract for a Sole Source procurement by the Utah Division of Purchasing for the Public Safety and Fire Marshall agency, specifically for a FAAC Pump-Ops Simulator training panel, software, and surface mounted hardware components. The solicitation was opened on 4/29/2022 and closed on 5/12/2022, with the contract number NN22-85, seeking to procure a specialized fire operations training simulator without standard competitive bidding processes.
The procurement is being pursued under a sole source justification, which means the state believes there is only one source for this specific procurement item. The solicitation includes commodity codes related to fire protection systems, explosive materials, and public safety services. The document invites other potential vendors to challenge the sole source determination by providing evidence of alternative vendors or comparable products. The procurement allows for potential additional legislative funding if appropriated, and requires vendors to certify they are not currently boycotting Israel and are not retired Utah state employees receiving benefits, as part of the submission requirements.

NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD A CONTRACT WITHOUT ENGAGING IN A STANDARD PROCUREMENT
PROCESS
The Division of Purchasing is publishing this notice pursuant to the Utah Procurement Code. The Conducting Procurement Unit submitted this form to the Division of Purchasing claiming that it intends to award a contract without competition if it is determined by the Division of Purchasing, in writing, that:
there is only one source for the procurement item;
transitional costs are a significant consideration in selecting a procurement item; or the award of a contract is under circumstances, described in rules adopted by the applicable rulemaking authority, that make awarding the contract through a standard procurement process impractical and not in the best interest of the procurement unit.
In the Buyer Attachments section the Conducting Procurement Unit has identified its justification for wanting to award a contract without engaging in standard procurement process.
Determination of Other Interested Vendors
The intent of this notice is to determine if there are any other interested and qualified vendors that meet the specifications of this notice. Any such vendors must submit the following information:
The name of the contesting person; and A detailed explanation of the challenge, including documentation showing that there are other competing sources for the procurement item.
In addition, a vendor should include:
Documentation that your firm can provide a comparable or better procurement item that meets or exceeds the specifications;
Documentation that your firm can also provide the same proprietary procurement item or an equivalent procurement item; and If transitional costs are identified as the justification for this notice, submit a cost comparison of the identified transitional costs with your firm’s anticipated transitional costs.
Regardless of any prior communications with the Division of Purchasing or the State, all vendors interested in responding to this notice must submit a response to this posting containing complete responses to all of the information requested above.
DO NOT CONTACT THE CONDUCTING PROCUREMENT UNIT. Any questions regarding this notice, including obtaining additional information, can be obtained through the Division of Purchasing during the publication period. No action is required if you agree with this notice.
If, after the public notice period has passed, the Division of Purchasing determines that there are other interested and qualified vendors that meet the specifications of this notice, the Division of Purchasing will not award a contract pursuant to this notice.
If, after the public notice period has passed, no valid challenges have been received, then the Division of Purchasing may award a contract to the identified vendor without competition.
Please read the entire form very carefully before responding to this notice.
Legislative Appropriations Additional funding may be added to the awarded contract(s) if additional funding is provided to the procurement unit for the purpose identified in the scope of work by the legislature.
