This is a Public Notice of Intent to Enter Into a Single Source Purchase issued by the City of Sanford, Florida, Finance Department, Purchasing Division on December 18, 2025. The City of Sanford's Public Works Department - Utilities/Plants section seeks to procure Busch vacuum pump products and related services through a single-source agreement with Busch Vacuum Solutions. The requested commodities include Busch Pump Model URA0630 (25 HP), RA590, RA063, and R5 Busch Vacuum Pumps, with the specific quantity listed as not applicable. The notice was posted on December 18, 2025, and will remain posted for a minimum of fifteen business days, expiring on January 1, 2026. The contract term is one year, with no renewal options specified. No site visits, bidders' meetings, or conferences are referenced in the documentation.
The single-source justification is based on the proprietary and highly engineered nature of the Busch vacuum pump components, which require refurbishment and service exclusively by Busch Vacuum Solutions, the sole authorized service provider for Busch vacuum pump products in Florida. The justification notes that critical proprietary tolerances and procedures are integral to maintaining system integrity and performance, and necessary parts are unavailable from any other source. No incumbent contractor or pricing information is provided in the notice. Prospective contractors believing they qualify as alternative suppliers are invited to submit statements of qualifications and product information to Maria A. Green, Purchasing Coordinator, at the City's Purchasing Division by the notice expiration date. Funding amounts and sources are not specified in the documentation.
