This is a sole source justification letter from CUES, Inc. to Pinellas County, Florida, regarding the procurement of sewer inspection equipment replacement parts, repairs, and software maintenance services. CUES, Inc. asserts its exclusive position as the sole authorized provider of CUES CCTV equipment, parts, and technical support throughout Florida, emphasizing that it is the only CCTV equipment manufacturer physically located in the state. The company highlights its 100% full circle compatibility across all existing mainline cameras, transporters, footage systems, and GraniteNet software, ensuring seamless integration with Pinellas County's current infrastructure. The Notice of Intent to Sole Source (Contract No. 26-0099-N) requires interested contractors to submit technical responses via OpenGov by November 28, 2025, at 3:00 p.m., demonstrating their ability to meet the county's stringent equipment compatibility and support requirements. The procurement is coded under NIGP 89064, with no specific set-aside designations for responding organizations.
The contract renewal carries an estimated annual budget of $130,000, with the current agreement expiring on January 31, 2026, and potential renewal through January 31, 2027. Pinellas County has already encumbered $36,924.41 on FY25 Purchase Order 465587 and has budgeted an additional $130,000 for FY26. The current contract has been in place since July 18, 2006, establishing CUES, Inc. as the incumbent provider. The sole source justification rests on CUES, Inc.'s exclusive status as the manufacturer of compatible equipment and the only authorized provider of genuine OEM replacement parts and services for the county's existing sewer inspection systems, with any unauthorized vendor modifications risking warranty voidation.

Any use of a vendor outside of CUES, Inc. that modifies, services, or provides technical parts may risk voiding any applicable CUES, Inc. warranty.
