Notice_of_Intended_Decision_to_Purchase_.pdf

This is a Notice of Intended Decision to Purchase for a sole source acquisition issued by the Brevard County Board of County Commissioners in Florida, in accordance with Florida Statute 287.057(5)(3)(c) and Brevard County Policy BCC-25. The Utilities Department is seeking to procure the Sewer Line Rapid Assessment Tool and supporting software from InfoSense, the sole manufacturer and distributor of this specialized equipment. The notice was posted on April 8, 2020, at 1:50 p.m. and remained open for responses until April 13, 2020. The product utilizes active acoustic transmissions between a transmitter and a receiver in adjacent pipes to provide aggregate blockage assessment capabilities. Respondents who believe they can meet or exceed the stated requirements must submit convincing technical data to support their position; however, the County reserves the right to cancel this notice and advertise a formal solicitation if substantially similar products or services are identified.

The notice establishes Stephanie Reynolds as the primary contact for the acquisition, reachable at 321-617-7390 or via email at Stephanie.reynolds@brevardfl.gov. The county assumes no responsibility for responses received after the posting deadline. No pricing information, contract term duration, renewal options, or funding sources are specified in this notice of intent. The justification for sole source designation rests exclusively on InfoSense's unique position as the only manufacturer of a product employing active acoustic transmission technology between adjacent pipes for blockage assessment purposes.
