Non-Competitive_Oversight_Committee_Justification_Form.docx

This is a Non-Competitive Oversight Committee Justification Form related to Pinellas County, Florida's Fiscal Year 2027 Pavement Preservation Package 2 project. The form documents a non-competitive procurement decision requiring approval from the county's oversight committee. The related contract opportunity involves pavement preservation work across four paving locations within Pinellas County, consisting of one arterial project and three local neighborhood projects totaling approximately 33.27 lane miles of roadway. The justification form requires the requisitioning department to provide project details including the total budget estimate, engagement duration, assigned project manager, and comprehensive justification for proceeding with a non-competitive vendor selection rather than a competitive bidding process.

The form includes a section documenting whether the selected vendor was utilized on prior contracts, requiring an explanation of the vendor's background and history with the county. Approval of the non-competitive procurement must be obtained from the Non-Competitive Oversight Committee, with sign-off required from committee members Merry Celeste, Don Crowell, and Chris Rose, as well as the Department ACA. Each committee member must indicate approval or disapproval of the non-competitive justification. The form was last revised on May 5, 2023, and serves as the formal documentation mechanism for justifying sole-source or non-competitive vendor selections within Pinellas County's procurement process.
