HUD-5369-B Summary

This file is a HUD Form 5369-B related to the City of Tucson's water meter procurement opportunity in Arizona. The City of Tucson is soliciting proposals from qualified contractors and manufacturers to supply 5/8 X 3/4" through 16" water meters compatible with Advance Metering Infrastructure (AMI) technology for delivery to a Tucson Water Stores facility with location to be determined. Proposed products must have been commercially available for a minimum of one year prior to the solicitation closing date. The meters will be used in residential and commercial installations for both reclaimed and potable water systems serving approximately 722,000 people across a 350 square-mile service area, with residential accounts comprising nearly 93% of metered connections. The City anticipates making up to five awards to manufacturers meeting all qualifications, specifications, pricing, and testing criteria.

The resulting contract will operate as a cooperative contract, permitting eligible participating agencies to purchase water meters from the awarded contractors. This multi-award approach ensures comprehensive product selection and adequate geographic coverage for Tucson Water customers. The solicitation does not reference specific pricing terms, set-asides, or funding source details within the available documentation, but the cooperative nature of the contract allows for broader municipal utilization beyond the City of Tucson's immediate needs.
