About this file

This document is an Exemption Revision Form and Sole Source Form for Sarasota County's Public Works Department, involving Temple Inc. as the sole source vendor for traffic signal and pedestrian equipment. The procurement covers a variety of traffic-related equipment, including Polara Navigator equipment with audible ped button systems, BullDog push buttons, traffic signal equipment, traffic calming equipment, and pedestrian ADA equipment from Alpha Technologies, Carmanah Technologies, Polara Engineering, and Temple Inc. The original sole source (SS 1851) is being renewed for a one-year period from 11/26/23 to 11/25/24, with no changes to the estimated expenditure.

The estimated expenditure for this procurement is $100,000.00 per fiscal year, with an initial authorization for expenditures not to exceed $50,000. The justification for sole source status is that Temple Inc. is the only authorized exclusive dealer in Florida for these specific product lines, and the county already has multiple locations with the Polara Navigator system in place. The products are specifically needed to meet ADA requirements, providing audible tones, LED confirmations, and ensuring approved standards for traffic signals, traffic calming, and pedestrian accessibility. The procurement allows for potential future competitive solicitation if other vendors can demonstrate the ability to supply similar products or services.
