About this file

This document is a Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Description of Intended Single Source Purchase (PUR 7776) for an Underbridge Inspection Truck Repair. The procurement seeks a vendor to transport an Aspen Aerial A-62T underbridge inspection truck from its current location to a repair facility, with the vendor responsible for providing all necessary equipment, parts, supplies, and labor to fully repair the truck. The project is for District Three Bridge Maintenance and will cover repairs for a truck used in underbridge inspections across 16 counties. The contract has a planned duration of 3 months, with a posting date of 5/29/2025 and a last day for receipt of information on 6/19/2025.

The estimated dollar amount for this single-source procurement is $253,834.21, with Aspen Aerials, Inc. identified as the intended vendor. The justification for the single-source selection is the vendor's proprietary and copyrighted software necessary to reprogram the Aspen Advance Control System and "Plus 1" Graphical Terminal Interface, which monitors the truck's parameters and hydraulics. The document emphasizes that no other source is available who can repair the truck and has access to this proprietary software. The procurement is specifically for Heavy Truck Maintenance and Repair Services, with the truck being critical for performing bridge inspections in accordance with state and federal requirements.
