Falling Weight Deflectometer (FWD) Repair and Calibration

The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT), Construction and Materials Division, is conducting a Single Feasible Source (SFS) procurement for Falling Weight Deflectometer (FWD) repair and calibration services at their Jefferson City location. The solicitation, identified as SFS605CO19000447, specifically seeks on-site services from Dynatest North America, Inc. of Alpharetta, GA, to replace malfunctioning load cell(s) on an existing FWD device. The load cells require replacement due to heavy use and age, and the subsequent scope includes complete calibration of the FWD after repair. The procurement is a one-time purchase with a very narrow solicitation period from September 5, 2018, to September 7, 2018, with responses due by 3:00 PM CDT on the final day. Key objectives include restoring the FWD's functionality and ensuring accurate measurement capabilities through authorized manufacturer maintenance. The solicitation allows for both electronic submissions through the MissouriBUYS procurement system and hard copy responses. Payment terms are set at Net 30 Days with Free On Board Destination delivery terms.

There are no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on organizational respondents mentioned in the solicitation documents. While the procurement is structured as a single feasible source, technically all vendors could respond, though MoDOT has determined that only Dynatest North America, Inc. can provide the required services. No incumbent vendor information or specific budget range is explicitly stated in the documents. The procurement is being processed under Missouri Code of State Regulation 7 CSR 10-11.020, which allows waiving competitive bidding when only one feasible source exists, particularly when factory-authorized maintenance is required to maintain equipment warranty validity. The solicitation notes that for purchases over $5,000, MoDOT must post notice, and for purchases over $25,000, additional advertising is required. No estimated total contract value is provided in the documentation. The procurement covers Clark County and will be executed by the Missouri Department of Transportation's Construction and Materials Division.
