About this file
This document is a Sole Source Procurement Form from the University of New Mexico (UNM) submitted on August 14, 2025, for technical support and maintenance of radio communication systems. The procurement involves Horizon Technologies providing comprehensive technical support for a Motorola TRBO radio system, including repeaters, handhelds, mobiles, microwave links, wiring, and antennas, as well as FCC Radio Licensing and Avtec radio console system services. The contract term is 5 years with potential up to a 10-year renewal, covering critical hospital radio communications for multiple departments including Security, Facilities, Emergency Department, Ambulance traffic, Inpatient Psych, and Lifeguard Air Medical Services.
The total contract value is $346,971.60, with Horizon Technologies positioned as the sole source vendor due to being an approved Motorola and Avtec dealer with unique installation and maintenance experience. The justification for sole source procurement is based on the proprietary nature of the MotoTRBO digital radio system, which requires specialized authorized dealers for equipment purchase, installation, configuration, and maintenance. Horizon Technologies has been maintaining this specific system at UNMH for 8 years and has similar system implementations for other organizations including Lifeflight, agencies in multiple states, and the US Department of Defense. The procurement is critical to ensuring uninterrupted radio communications across various hospital departments and services.
