About this file
This document is a Description of Intended Single Source Purchase (PUR 7776) issued by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP). The DEP seeks to contract with YSI Incorporated for the purchase of Aquatic Preserve (AP) Datasonde Annual Maintenance and new Pro Digital Sampling System (ProDSS) Handheld equipment, EXO2 Sonde, EXO ISE02 sensors, and additional related items. The contract term is 12 months, and the total estimated value is $186,592.24. Prospective vendors have until November 13, 2023 to provide information demonstrating their ability to supply the requested commodities or services. If the DEP determines the services are only available from a single source, it will post a notice of its intended decision to enter into an agreement with YSI Incorporated pursuant to Florida law.
The pricing for the requested items, including maintenance plans, repairs, and additional accessories and supplies, is detailed in the document. The justification for the single source procurement is that YSI Incorporated is the sole manufacturer and supplier of the EXO series water quality monitoring devices, which utilize a unique "smart sensor" design and are required to maintain warranty and quality assurance standards. The equipment will replace failing and obsolete items used in the DEP's Aquatic Preserve water quality monitoring programs, which are a priority for the Office of Resilience and Coastal Protection.

Justification for single source acquisition (what is necessary and unique about the product, service or source; steps taken to confirm unavailability of competition, as appropriate):
Aquatic preserves (AP) are designated as Outstanding Florida Waters (OFW; 62-302.700 FAC), a designation that confers additional water quality protections, but requires data on water quality status and trends. The AP water quality programs are a priority for the Office of Resilience and Coastal Protection (RCP) and data is used for agency decisions. Annual maintenance of Sondes and sensors are required to maintain equipment in compliance with Department protocols, quality assurance plans and SOPs. To maintain the equipment warranty, equipment maintenance is required to be completed by the manufacturer Xylem-YSI. Equipment to be purchased will replace failing and obsolete equipment. Equipment will be purchased through the manufacturer (Xylem- YSI) with a 3-year manufacturer warranty offered only through Xylem-YSI.
YSI Inc. is a manufacturer of water quality and environmental monitoring sensors, telemetry instrumentation, and related products and services. This letter serves to inform you that YSI is the sole manufacturer and supplier of the line of instruments and sensors known as the “EXO”, (e.g.:
EXO1, EXO2, EXO Handheld). EXO series water quality monitoring devices utilize a unique “smart sensor” design that allows for the reduction in calibration time and in calibration materials.
The EXO platform’s innovative integration of Bluetooth technology also aids in the ease of calibration. Sensors are wet-mateable and extremely durable due to their welded titanium cases.
For quality assurance and to ensure instrument compatibility, it is imperative that this water quality monitoring equipment and replacement supplies be purchased from YSI. Additionally any repairs needed on this equipment must be completed by YSI to prevent voiding the warranty. To find an authorized center in your area go to http://www.ysi.com/product-service.php. YSI considers the Florida DEP a house account and accordingly we would not quote this to brokers or agents of any nature. Consequently in regards to Quote # B213962 , which includes EXO equipment, Pro-Dss Equipment, Maintenance and Repair and accessories, are being sold exclusively thru YSI.
