About this opportunity
Sarasota County is conducting a sole source procurement (Project 2025-ISS-467) for a Kooltronic Inc KA4C3DP21L air conditioner, including comprehensive parts, repairs, and diagnostic services. The procurement specifically covers Sarasota County and Siesta Key CDP jurisdictions, with an intent to renew an existing contract for specialized air conditioning equipment. The county has set a response deadline of April 29, 2025, at 5:00 pm, with electronic submissions required through https://secure.procurenow.com/portal/scgov. Potential respondents must complete an Intent to Sole Source Response form and provide supporting documentation demonstrating their ability to supply equivalent products. The procurement process allows for potential conversion to a competitive solicitation if alternative vendors can prove capability to provide substantially similar products and services. Questions from potential respondents were due by April 28, 2025, with the solicitation initially released on April 25, 2025.
The procurement is highly restricted, with Sarasota County explicitly stating it will only consider responses from vendors authorized by Kooltronic Inc to sell their specific products and services. No specific disadvantaged enterprise set-asides were mentioned in the documentation. Kooltronic Inc, based in Pennington, New Jersey, is positioned as the exclusive provider of the proprietary air conditioning equipment, with direct sales from their headquarters. The sole source letter, signed by Darren Gorden, VP of Operations & General Counsel, confirms the company's unique position in providing these specialized units. While no specific award value or budget range was explicitly stated in the documents, the procurement appears focused on maintaining existing technical infrastructure through a targeted equipment and service acquisition process. The procurement is managed by Sofia Salazar, a Procurement Specialist in the Office of Financial Management, with contact information provided for potential inquiries.
