Performance and/or Design Requirements (intended use, function or application, compatibility etc.

The pavement deflection system is a critical part of the Department's design and structural evaluation programs. The system is fully electromechanical without the use of hydraulics for the operation of the drop weight system and must be capable of carrying out a typical complete test sequence, consisting of the automated sequence initiation from within the towing vehicle which activates the lowering of the loading plate/falling weight/deflection sensor bar subassembly to the surface being tested, running (e.g.) one seating and two (2) test loads of 9,000 lbf each and raising the subassembly to the transport position again, all within a period of 15 seconds or less. The deflection data gathered is used for monitoring, assessing, and reporting on the condition and performance of Florida's roadways for pavement design and safety purposes. The information provided by this system assures that the Department's infrastructure has adequate strength and is properly designed.

Intended source (vendor, contractor): Dynatest US INC.

Price: $185,010.80

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): Dynatest US I n c . , is the only known vendor in Florida to meet the Department's requirements for a Pavement Detection System (PDS).
