Odyssey_Manufacturing_Coastal_Reliability_Sole_Source_letter.pdf

This is a sole source procurement letter from the City of Port Orange, Florida, regarding the authorization of Odyssey Manufacturing with Coastal Reliability Solutions as the single vendor for Assmann Chemical Storage Tanks. The City issued a Notice of Intent to Award under Florida State Statute 287.057(3)(c), which permits sole source procurement when services can only be met by one source. Odyssey Manufacturing with Coastal Reliability Solutions has been identified as the only authorized dealer for Assmann Chemical Storage Tanks with approved business locations serving the Peninsular and Oldsmar Florida areas. The procurement is for the purchase of these specialized chemical storage tanks, and the City intends to negotiate and award a contract directly to this vendor without conducting a competitive solicitation.

The notice invited interested firms to submit written responses demonstrating their clear and convincing capability to provide Assmann Chemical Storage Tanks and proof of authorization as a dealer for these products. Responses were required to include firm name, address, point of contact, telephone number, email, and supporting documentation evidencing ability to meet the procurement requirement. The City emphasized that any responses received would be evaluated solely to determine whether a competitive procurement should be conducted instead of the proposed sole source award. No pricing, contract terms, or renewal options were specified in this notice of intent, as the primary purpose was to verify whether alternative sources existed before proceeding with the sole source procurement authorization.
