RedZone_Robotics_Sole_Source.pdf

This is a Sole Source Justification Notice filed by the City of Fort Myers, Florida, for wastewater pipeline condition assessment, documentation, and inspection services. The notice designates RedZone Robotics, Inc. as the exclusive source for the required services, which include closed-circuit television (CCTV) inspection and equipment sanitization. The posting was issued on Wednesday, July 15, 2026, with a response deadline of Thursday, July 30, 2026, at 4:00 p.m. (ET). This notice is not a formal solicitation, and no submissions are required; rather, it serves to notify the public of the City's intent to negotiate directly with RedZone Robotics under Florida State Statute 287.057(3)(c). The posting will remain active for fifteen calendar days, during which alternative suppliers who believe they can provide equivalent services must submit product information and qualifications to the Purchasing Agent at dfinn@fortmyers.gov.

The sole source justification is based on RedZone Robotics' exclusive status as the 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. The notice explicitly states that any responses received will be considered solely to determine whether a competitive procurement should be conducted and will not be treated as formal proposals, bids, or quotes.
