About this opportunity

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The City of Tampa's Mobility Department is pursuing a single-source procurement for Carlson survey equipment and software, specifically the Carlson BRx7 multi-frequency, multi-GNSS receiver designed for high-precision land surveying and mapping. The procurement, identified by ID 26-X-00306, seeks to upgrade the department's current data collection capabilities with a receiver that supports GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, and QZSS satellite constellations and integrates Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) capability. Prospective bidders must be authorized manufacturer's distributors or dealers capable of providing quotations, warranty service, maintenance, and repairs for the equipment. The solicitation requires comprehensive insurance coverage, including Commercial General Liability insurance with $1 million per occurrence and $2 million general aggregate limits, Automobile Liability insurance at $500,000, and Worker's Compensation coverage. Vendors must submit documentation confirming their authorization as Carlson product vendors, with all insurance placed with Florida-admitted insurers having an A.M. Best rating of at least A-:VII. The procurement window is short, with the opportunity posted on November 17, 2025, and responses due by November 20, 2025, with inquiries directed to Celeste Gibbons-People at the Tampa Purchasing Department.

The single-source procurement appears to have no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations beyond the requirement of being an authorized Carlson product distributor. The specification documents indicate this is a targeted acquisition for the Mobility Department's specific technological needs, with the Carlson BRx7 system and associated SurvCE/SurvPC/CAD software deemed uniquely suited to the department's surveying operations. While exact award values are not explicitly stated, the comprehensive insurance requirements suggest the potential contract could be of significant monetary value. The procurement is limited to Hillsborough County, Florida, and focuses on upgrading existing survey and mapping technology infrastructure. Vendors will need to demonstrate not only technical capability but also comprehensive support infrastructure, including the ability to provide warranty services, maintenance, and potential repair services for the specialized surveying equipment. No incumbent vendors are specifically mentioned in the provided documentation, and the procurement appears to be a direct technology upgrade for the City of Tampa's Mobility Department.
