About this file

This document is a Description of Intended Single Source Purchase (PUR 7776) issued by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC). It describes the agency's intent to purchase the Viken Detection Nighthawk BTX imaging system, a handheld device used by port investigators for package inspection. The Viken Detection Nighthawk BTX is the only device on the market that can provide Backscatter and Transmission X-ray images, and it is the sole source for this requirement. The contract term is 1 year from the issuance of the original purchase order, and multiple purchase orders may be issued. Prospective vendors must provide information regarding their ability to supply the requested commodity by May 18, 2023.

The estimated dollar amount for this single-source purchase is $175,000. The justification for the single-source acquisition is that the Viken Detection Nighthawk BTX is the only device that can provide the required functionality, including the ability to detect certain metals contained within a compartment or enclosure. This document is not a solicitation for bids or proposals, and interested vendors should not submit a bid or "no bid" reply.
