About this file
This is a Notice of Intent to Award Sole Source document issued by the City of Fort Myers Procurement Services for specialized pumps, street sweepers, OEM replacement parts, service, and repairs. The City intends to award a sole source contract to Environmental Products Group (EPG) under the authority of Florida State Statute 287.057(3)(c). The submission deadline for interested vendors to challenge the sole source designation is Monday, September 7, 2026, at 4:00 p.m. (ET), with the notice remaining active for fifteen calendar days from the August 20, 2026 release date. Responses must be submitted through a vendor questionnaire requiring confirmation of capability and supporting product information. No formal bidder's conference or site visit is mentioned in the solicitation. Interested suppliers must contact Senior Procurement Specialist Kirk Zimmerman at kzimmerman@fortmyers.gov or (239) 321-7241 to challenge the sole source designation.
The justification for sole source procurement is that using an alternative supplier would void the warranty on the equipment and parts. The City has identified Environmental Products Group (EPG) as the exclusive source capable of providing these products and services. No specific pricing information, funding amounts, or contract term details are provided in this notice. This solicitation does not constitute a formal competitive procurement; rather, it is a notification period during which other qualified vendors may submit evidence of their capability to provide equivalent products or services for the City's consideration in determining whether to proceed with competitive bidding instead of the sole source award.
