The solicitation seeks five specific deliverables: an Engineering Renewable Energy 3D Print Lab (printer excluded), DataSnap Motion Sensor RW 2 Pack, DataSnap Air Racer STEM Lab, DataSnap Impact STEM Lab, and DataSnap Projectile STEM Lab. These products are designed to support hands-on educational instruction in engineering, renewable energy, and physics concepts.

Interested vendors or parties wishing to challenge the sole source determination or propose equivalent products must submit their notice to Amanda Zarko, Senior Procurement Agent, at zarko@scps.k12.fl.us or 407-320-0237. The School Board reserves the right to determine whether any proposed alternatives are equivalent to the specified products and will proceed with the sole source purchase from Realityworks unless a qualifying notice is received by the established deadline.
The approximate annual expenditure for this procurement is $32,118.00. The sole source determination is valid for one year following School Board approval and must be re-posted and validated annually. Decisions and recommendations regarding the solicitation will be posted to VendorLink on the Purchasing and Distribution Services website at https://www.scps.k12.fl.us/district/departments/purchasing/comp-solicitations-contracts/ within approximately one week of the response due date. Any protest of the sole source determination must comply with Section 120.57(3) of the Florida Statutes, and failure to file a timely protest constitutes a waiver of proceedings under Chapter 120, Florida Statutes and School Board Rules.
