The City of Orlando Fire Department is conducting a sole source procurement (S26-0300) for pediatric emergency medical equipment specifically targeting the Handtevy Model HPB6100 Pediatric Emergency Bags, including seven equipment pouches and a side compartment organizer. The procurement is being administered by the Orange County jurisdiction in Florida through the City of Orlando's Procurement and Contracts Division, with Purchasing Agent II Tracie Brown serving as the primary contact. The solicitation seeks to procure 10 units of the specified pediatric bags designed to improve medication dosing accuracy and provide integrated age-based equipment solutions for emergency medical response. Key objectives include obtaining evidence-based clinical pediatric emergency equipment that integrates with existing electronic patient care record (ePCR) systems and incorporates proprietary customizable medication and equipment guides with hybrid age- and length-based dosing capabilities. The procurement emphasizes the need for 24/7 clinical support from full-time expert staff including physicians, nurses, paramedics, and pharmacists. The response deadline for any suppliers wishing to challenge the sole source designation or demonstrate capability to provide equivalent products is Monday, March 16, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. (ET), with the posting remaining active for seven calendar days from the initial notice date of Monday, March 9, 2026. Interested parties must submit product information, statements of qualifications, and capabilities documentation exclusively by email to tracie.brown@orlando.gov.

No set-asides or restrictions limiting responses to disadvantaged enterprises or specific organization types have been noted in the solicitation materials. Handtevy is identified as the incumbent and current sole source vendor for this equipment. The procurement requires integration with existing ePCR infrastructure and systems already in use by the Orlando Fire Department.
