3-3. Authorized Distributor Letter CSDS 2026.pdf

This is an Authorized Distributor Letter from Radiodetection, LLC confirming the authorized distribution rights for CSDS (located at 4733 Auburn Blvd, Sacramento, CA 95841) across California, Nevada, Utah, and Arizona. The letter, dated January 1, 2026, establishes CSDS as the sole authorized distributor for Radiodetection, LLC products in the specified territory, including the Sensors and Software branded LMX100 and LMX200 Ground Penetrating Radar systems and representation of Radiodetection, LLC (Schonstedt) products. The authorization is valid through December 31, 2026. This letter directly supports the Utah Department of Transportation's (UDOT) Notice of Intent to Award a Contract for Radiodetection Underground Locator Devices as a sole source procurement, confirming that CSDS meets the requirement of being the only qualified source for these specialized products in the region.

The documentation establishes the justification for UDOT's proposed sole source procurement without engaging in standard competitive bidding procedures. By confirming CSDS as the exclusive authorized distributor for Radiodetection products in Utah and surrounding states, the letter demonstrates that there is only one source for the procurement item, satisfying the criteria for sole source acquisition. No pricing terms, quantities, or specific contract values are detailed in the authorization letter itself, as it serves primarily to establish distributor exclusivity and support the legal basis for proceeding with a non-competitive award to CSDS.
