About this file

This is a quotation document submitted by Neptune Technology Group LLC to Hillsborough County, Florida for Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) water meter products and related services. The quotation includes pricing for various potable and reclaimed water meter models ranging from 5/8" to 12" sizes, as well as associated equipment such as antennas, transmitters, brackets, and strainers. The contract period is November 1, 2026 through October 31, 2029, with pricing firm for the first 12 months. The quotation encompasses multiple meter types and configurations to support the County's water utility modernization objectives and integration with Neptune's existing 360 AMI Software system.

The pricing provided in Appendix A reflects market conditions as of May 2026 and ranges from $5.00 for brackets to $14,950.00 for a 12-inch strainer. Neptune Technology Group has included a copper-based pricing adjustment clause permitting future price modifications for orders, renewals, extensions, or deferred releases based on increases in copper and electronic component pricing, with adjustments triggered only when cumulative index increases exceed 2 percent over a 12-month measurement period. The vendor has accepted Hillsborough County's Standard Purchase Order Terms and Conditions with a single exception regarding shipping terms, requesting CIP (Carriage and Insurance Paid To) Continental United States instead of the County's standard F.O.B. Destination requirement. The County's procurement is being pursued as a sole source acquisition under Section 3-205(2)(b) of the Procurement Policy due to software compatibility requirements with the existing Neptune 360 AMI system, resulting in an estimated three-year cost of $58,367,998.00 with a 35 percent MSRP discount valued at $31,428,922.00 in savings.

Re: Quotation for Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) Products and Services — Copper- Based Pricing Adjustment Notice

Dear Ms. Cominsky:

Neptune Technology Group LLC is pleased to submit the enclosed quotation for Advanced Metering Infrastructure products and related services for consideration by Hillsborough County.

We appreciate the opportunity to support the County's water utility modernization objectives and remain committed to delivering best-in-class metering solutions backed by responsive service and technical expertise.

In connection with this quotation, please note the following important pricing disclosure regarding raw material cost variability:

Copper-Based Pricing Adjustment Clause

Pricing provided herein is based on material market conditions as of May 2026, utilizing publicly available U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Producer Price Indexes and the Consumer Price Index as identified below.

Due to ongoing volatility in global copper markets and the significant copper content contained within certain products quoted herein, Neptune Technology Group may adjust pricing for future orders, renewals, extensions, or deferred releases based upon increases in copper pricing occurring after the date of this quotation.

Any future price adjustment shall be calculated as a weighted average increase using the following indexes, series codes, and weightings, measured over the preceding twelve (12) month period:

• PPI – Copper & Copper Products (Series: WPUSI019011) — 40% weight

• PPI – Other Electronic Component Mfg. (Series: PCU334419334419) — 40% weight

• CPI-U – All Items (Series: CPIAUCSL) — 20% weight

The applicable price adjustment shall be calculated as the weighted average of the percentage change in each index over the measurement period, applied proportionally to the affected product categories. For reference, the current weighted average increase based on the most recently available index data is summarized in the table below.

CPI-U – All Items CPIAUCSL 20% 2.20% 0.44%

Weighted Average Increase 16.48%

Price adjustments shall only be applicable when the selected index reflects a cumulative increase exceeding two percent (2%) over the measurement period. When triggered, Neptune will provide no less than thirty (30) days written notice prior to any adjustment taking effect.

Adjustments shall be limited to the proportional impact of raw material cost increases and will be supported by commercially reasonable documentation, provided within ten (10) business days of written request.

The enclosed quotation reflects Neptune’s commitment to transparent and competitive pricing.

We welcome the opportunity to discuss the terms of this quotation and the copper pricing provisions in further detail at your convenience. Please do not hesitate to contact your Neptune Territory Manager or our regional office with any questions.
