About this file
This document is a Notice of Intent to Award a Contract Without Engaging in a Standard Procurement Process submitted by the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) Region 1 to UDOT Procurement. The procurement seeks replacement parts for a truck escape ramp arrestor system, which will be installed by UDOT maintenance staff. The requesting unit is Region 1, with contact person Tom Roylance, the Region 1 District Engineer. The proposed vendor is Impact Technologies VI LLC, located in St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands, with contact person Michael Kempen. The contract is anticipated to be a five-year agency contract with renewal options. No specific response dates, site visits, or bidder conferences are mentioned in the documentation.
The estimated total contract cost is $150,000. The justification for sole source procurement is based on Impact Technologies' ownership of the patent on this arrestor system technology, making it the only supplier of replacement parts. The requestor conducted market research, including inquiries to Interwest Safety Supply and Safety Supply and Sign, both of which confirmed they do not stock or supply arrestor system parts. This is identified as the first system of its kind in the state of Utah. No transitional costs analysis or trial use justification was applicable. The vendor's FINET number is VC 244582, with Federal Tax ID 66-0934497. No specific funding source or amount is identified beyond the estimated total term cost of $150,000.
