Orikan_Metro_LITE_Virtual_Sole_Source_Certification_-_City_of_Orlando.pdf

This is a sole source certification letter from Orikan Group Pty Ltd and Orikan USA LLC regarding the Metro LITE Virtual Meter solution for the City of Orlando's Parking Division in Florida. Orikan certifies that it is the exclusive owner, developer, manufacturer, and authorized United States supplier of the Metro LITE Virtual solution and its associated intellectual property. The company states that no other organization is authorized to supply or support this proprietary solution in the United States and that it is not aware of another supplier in North America offering comparable solutions. Accordingly, the Metro LITE Virtual solution may only be procured directly from Orikan USA LLC. The proposed implementation consists of 25 units to be deployed through a three-month trial period to evaluate customer adoption, transaction volume, and operational effectiveness before considering further expansion. The solution enables customers to initiate and pay for parking sessions using smartphones through NFC tap-to-pay or Text-to-Park functionality, directing users to the PayStay payment portal where they can securely pay using credit or debit cards, Apple Pay, or Google Pay.

The certification was issued on August 21, 2026, and establishes the sole source justification for the City of Orlando to proceed with direct procurement of the Metro LITE Virtual Meter solution from Orikan USA LLC without competitive bidding. No pricing terms, set-asides, contract term duration, or renewal options are specified in this certification document. The letter serves as the official documentation supporting the City of Orlando's determination that only Orikan USA LLC can provide this proprietary technology.
