About this file

This document is an Exemption Revision Form and Sole Source Form from Sarasota County's Public Utilities Department for renewing a sole source procurement with IDEXX Distribution Inc. The procurement covers water testing products including Colilert reagent, Colilert 18 reagent, Colilert comparator, Idexx vessels, and SimPlate for Heterotrophic Plate Counts (HPC) used in the Sarasota County laboratories for water and wastewater testing. The contract is being renewed for one year from 03/29/2024 through 03/28/2025, with no change to the estimated expenditure amount of $50,000.00 per fiscal year.

The sole source justification is based on IDEXX Distribution Inc. being the only authorized vendor and sole distributor of these proprietary laboratory products. The county must follow the mandatory National Environmental Laboratories Accreditation Program (NELAP) certification requirements for its water laboratories, which necessitates using these specific testing materials. The procurement is being processed through the county's standard sole source authorization process, with approvals required from procurement officials and department leadership. The contract allows for continued compliance with water testing standards while maintaining the existing relationship with the sole manufacturer and distributor of these specialized laboratory testing products.
