About this file
This is a Sole Source Form and Exemption Revision Form from Sarasota County's Parks Recreation & Natural Resources Department for a procurement with KB Industries, Inc. The document seeks to renew a sole source contract for Flexi-Pave, a flexible porous pavement product made from recycled passenger tires and stone aggregate, with an estimated expenditure of $35,000 for the fiscal/contract year. The contract period runs from 11/05/2020 to 11/04/2024, with the procurement official authorized to approve budgeted expenditures up to $50,000 prior to further authorization.
The justification for the sole source procurement emphasizes the unique nature of the Flexi-Pave product, which meets ADA requirements and is specifically designed for use in areas where traditional pavement is impractical, such as pathways over tree roots. KB Industries offers a "Green Partnership Program" that provides free training and allows for self-installation, and staff has confirmed that no comparable products with similar delivery methods exist in the marketplace. The county indicates that in a competitive bid, only KB Industries and its distributors would be able to submit pricing, making this sole source procurement the most practical approach for obtaining the specialized pavement material.
