About this file

This is a Request for Approved Equals form issued by Broward County, Florida for use in conjunction with a microfilm conversion scanner and software procurement for the Libraries Division. The solicitation seeks to acquire two microfilm conversion scanners along with associated software capable of digitizing microfilm images automatically. The contract scope includes installation, training, maintenance, and on-site service support. Vendors may submit requests for approved equal status for proposed products by completing the standardized form and submitting it via email to the County's Purchasing Agent by the deadline specified in the solicitation's Special Instructions to Vendors. Requests must include relevant product literature demonstrating compliance with all solicitation specifications. The County will issue its determination on approved equal status through addendum to the solicitation.

The form requires vendors to provide comprehensive information including company name, contact details, solicitation and specification references, and detailed descriptions of the proposed product model and how it meets the stated requirements.

Approval decisions will be communicated via formal addendum, and vendors are instructed not to submit the approved equals request through the electronic bidding system.
