About this file
This is a Description of Intended Single Source Purchase (PUR 7776) filed by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) for repair services to a Vac-Con truck. FDOT seeks repairs and parts for a non-operational Vac-Con truck currently located at the Brooksville Operations Center, which is essential for day-to-day infrastructure maintenance and development operations. The purchase is classified as heavy truck maintenance and repairs (commodity code 78181508) and is a one-time acquisition. The request was posted on January 13, 2026, with a deadline for information receipt of February 5, 2026, at 7:30 AM. The solicitation will remain posted for a minimum of 15 business days in accordance with Florida Statutes section 287.057(3)(c).
The estimated contract value is $38,348.12 for parts and repair services. FDOT has identified Southern Sewer Equipment Sales and Service, Inc. as the sole source for this purchase, as it is the only authorized Vac-Con dealer in Florida for all sales, parts, and services across all Vac-Con product lines. The single-source justification is based on manufacturer warranty requirements, which are available only through the original equipment manufacturer and are non-transferable. The primary contact for this procurement is Lori Vicari at FDOT's Procurement Office, located in Tampa, Florida, and the request originated from Junior Canley, Maintenance Manager at the Brooksville Operations Center. Legal review by the Office of General Counsel is required prior to posting.
