21SS-213 Qwick Kurb Traffic Separator

Marion County Board of County Commissioners' Procurement Services is conducting a re-solicitation for the Qwick Kurb Traffic Separator system (Project Number 21SS-213) to be used for roadway lane separation and access modification applications. The procurement seeks to procure the Qwick Kurb lane separator system, which is distinguished as the only lane separator currently listed on the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Approved Product List (APL) featuring an extra-wide post design of approximately 8.6 inches. This design provides enhanced durability and effectiveness in discouraging vehicle encroachment compared to standard lane separator products with 2-4 inch posts. The solicitation was posted on April 29, 2026, with responses due by May 6, 2026, providing a five business day submission period. Vendors who believe they can provide comparable goods or services are required to submit supporting documentation during this posting period to verify whether qualified alternatives exist. Interested vendors should direct inquiries and submissions to Carrisa Crawford at carrisa.crawford@marionfl.org.

This re-solicitation is being conducted in accordance with Florida Statute 287.057(3)(c) and the Marion County Procurement Manual, which require existing sole source designations to be reviewed and re-solicited at least once every five years. Cloverleaf Corporation is currently designated as the sole source provider for the Qwick Kurb Traffic Separator system. If no qualified alternatives are identified through this competitive solicitation process, Marion County Procurement may reaffirm the existing sole source designation with Cloverleaf Corporation. The re-solicitation notice does not specify an award value or budget range. No specific set-aside designations or restrictions on organizational types appear to be indicated in the available documentation, nor are there specific qualifications listed beyond the requirement to provide comparable goods or services that meet the FDOT APL standards.
