About this file

This document is a Notice of Intent to Single Source issued by the Collier County Board of County Commissioners Procurement Services Division in Florida, specifically targeting a sole/single source procurement for Verathon Inc. The document outlines the county's intent to designate Verathon Inc. as a single source provider for the GlideScope Go 2 handheld video laryngoscope from May 21, 2025, to September 30, 2028. The procurement is for a medical device that delivers high-resolution real-time video of a patient's airway, intended to improve intubation success in emergency medical and trauma scenarios. The submission deadline is set for Wednesday, May 28, 2025, at 3:00 pm, and respondents are invited to provide input if they believe alternative vendors exist.

The single source justification stems from Collier County EMS's current lack of video laryngoscopes, which have become an industry standard and best practice. The document emphasizes that this is not an invitation to bid or quote, and respondents should not provide pricing. Instead, potential alternative vendors are asked to submit documentation showing other qualified sources for the identified services. The Procurement Services Division will be the sole authority in reviewing responses and determining whether to maintain the single source designation. All responses must be submitted through the Collier County Procurement Services Division Online Bidding System, with the intent to verify that the specifications are non-restrictive and can potentially be met by multiple companies.
