This is a Notice of Intended Decision and Bid Tabulation Sheet issued by the School District of Seminole County, Florida, for Solicitation 25260031B-VG regarding the procurement of a Fire Pump Operations Simulator for the district's Fire Academy. The solicitation called for a single Fire Pump Operations Simulator unit along with associated training and support components, including a trainee visual scene display for hose deployment, power take-off simulation functionality, air-primer control functionality, operations and maintenance training, warranty coverage, and shipping. The notice was posted on September 22, 2025, and establishes a 72-hour protest period from the posting date in accordance with Florida Statutes Section 120.57(3). Two vendors submitted bids for this opportunity: FAAC Incorporated of Ann Arbor, Michigan, and Excel Driver Services, LLC dba Sim-Tech of Henderson, Colorado.

The bid tabulation sheet reflects the following pricing: FAAC Incorporated submitted a grand total of $81,750.00, while Sim-Tech submitted a grand total of $79,785.90, making Sim-Tech the lower bidder by $1,964.10.

The School District recommended Sim-Tech for award based on the lower total price and noted that Sim-Tech engineers would customize the pump panel design to match the district's specifications. Procurement inquiries should be directed to Victoria Gonzalez, Procurement Agent III, at 407-320-0262 or gonzalvm@scps.k12.fl.us.
