About this file
This is an Exemption Revision Form and Sole Source Form for Sarasota County's Public Utilities Department, specifically for CUES Inc. The document seeks to renew a sole source procurement for hardware, software, and service/support for existing closed caption video screening systems equipment used in pipeline inspections. The current procurement is for a one-year period from 06/05/2024 to 06/04/2025, with an estimated expenditure of $49,000.00 for the fiscal/contract year. The renewal maintains the existing sole source status for purchasing hardware, cameras, and associated pipeline inspection equipment to maintain existing Cues CCTV equipment and appurtenance.
CUES Inc. is positioned as the exclusive provider of CCTV equipment for the entire state of Florida, claiming to be the sole CCTV equipment manufacturer physically located in the state. The company emphasizes its 100% full circle compatibility, ensuring that existing mainline cameras and transporters work with new and future equipment. The justification for sole source procurement includes the proprietary nature of the software, which eliminates the need for additional staff training, and the fact that the county's staff is already trained and familiar with the system. The procurement is strategic, as changing vendors would require new training on equipment, instruments, and procedures for closed caption video screening products.
