About this file

This is a Notice of Intent to Award a Sole Source contract issued by the City of Fort Myers Procurement Services in Florida for wastewater pipeline condition assessment and inspection services. The City of Fort Myers has identified RedZone Robotics, Inc. as the exclusive source for wastewater pipeline condition assessment, documentation, and inspection services, specifically involving Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) inspection and equipment sanitizing. The project scope encompasses approximately 500 linear feet of 16-inch High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) pipe inspection using conventional CCTV technology in conjunction with GeoCal's XYZ mapping device. The primary objectives include locating a fracture point in the pipeline, determining the material transition point from HDPE to another material, and providing accurate XYZ elevation data. RedZone Robotics will conduct necessary site reconnaissance to ensure safe and efficient data collection. The Notice of Intent was released on July 15, 2026, with a submission deadline of July 30, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. (ET). This posting remains active for fifteen calendar days, during which competing suppliers may submit product information and statements of qualifications to the Purchasing Agent at dfinn@fortmyers.gov.

The sole source justification is based on RedZone Robotics being the exclusive service provider for EnviroCal's XYZ IMU alignment tool, which is used in conjunction with RedZone's proprietary robotic platforms. The City intends to utilize a NO VALUE procurement method for this contract award. This is not a formal solicitation, and no formal submissions are required; any responses received will be considered solely to determine whether a competitive procurement should be conducted instead. Interested vendors must contact the Procurement Manager, Denise Finn, at dfinn@fortmyers.gov or (239) 321-7242 to challenge the sole source designation within the fifteen-day notification period.
