About this opportunity
The City of Palm Bay, Florida Department of Utilities is issuing a Notice of Intent to Sole Source DiscFlo Pumps for lime slurry conveyance at the North Regional Water Treatment Plant, with responses due September 8, 2026 at 5:00 PM via the Bonfire platform. This is a standardization sole-source procurement with intent to designate Gerber Pumps International, Inc. as the exclusive vendor.
The scope covers DiscFlo pumps — specifically the proprietary boundary layer/viscous drag pump design — for lime slurry conveyance. Gerber Pumps International is identified as the exclusive distributor of this design for municipal, pulp and paper, and general industrial markets across Florida, Georgia, Alabama, South Carolina, North Carolina, and Colorado.
The standardization rationale centers on cost avoidance: elimination of approximately $24,000 in annual peristaltic hose replacement expenses plus associated maintenance cost reductions. Vendors who believe they can meet or exceed the stated requirements must submit technical data demonstrating capability to compete. Responses will be evaluated solely to determine whether bona fide competition exists and whether to proceed with competitive procurement; responses are not formal proposals, bids, or quotes.
No specific contract value, contract term, renewal options, or detailed pricing information is provided in this notice.
