About this file

This document is a Single Source Certificate of Conditions and Circumstances submitted by the City of Tampa, Florida to justify a non-competitive procurement for NovaCharge electric vehicle charging equipment and services. The City seeks to procure NovaCharge NC7000 series vehicle charging stations in multiple configurations, including Basic, Non-Networked Authenticated, and OCPP Network options. The single source justification is based on NovaCharge's exclusive offering of the NC7000 series with the specific capability to provide non-networked authentication via RFID key fob solution integrated with Freedom software that enables usage reporting and data transfer at no annual fee compatible with the City's chosen cellular provider. No specific quantities, response dates, or contract term details are specified in the single source request document.

The annual estimated expenditure for this procurement is $30,000. NovaCharge, Inc., located at 601 S. Lake Destiny Road, Suite 250, Maitland, Florida 32751, is identified as the sole source provider. The company references an open State of Florida contract (Florida Buy State Cooperative Purchasing Agency Contract #22-144) that permits direct purchase of NovaCharge products and services, with the contract extended through September 14, 2026. The City's request emphasizes the need for continuity of operations and the ability to purchase authentic NC7000 units, repair parts, and service plans to maintain existing equipment. Approval is contingent upon review for compliance with purchasing policies and procedures, legal sufficiency, and insurance requirements.
