Intent to single source grundfos/yeoman pumps and parts

The City of Tampa's Water Department is seeking to procure Grundfos/Yeoman pumps and parts through a single-source procurement process for the David L. Tippin Water Treatment Facility, with Carl Eric Johnson (CEJCO) identified as the sole authorized distributor for these specialized components in Florida. The specific procurement includes a Grundfos S2.40.A80.540.4.62L.S.245.Q.EX.D.611 pump and an accompanying 8-inch adapter plate, with the pump currently in stock and the adapter plate having a 6-week lead time. The procurement's primary objective is to ensure continuous and reliable operation of the facility's surge tanks, which exclusively utilize Grundfos/Yeoman pumps and parts. The total quoted price for the procurement is $39,149, with net 30-day payment terms and freight allowed from Allentown, PA. The quote is valid as of February 13, 2025, with the opportunity posted on February 25, 2025, and technically due on February 24, 2025. The product roster covered under this exclusive distribution includes multi-stage pumps, dosing/disinfection pumps and skids, booster package systems, controls, motors, drives, and Paco pumps.

This procurement appears to be a direct, single-source acquisition without specific set-aside designations or restrictions on organizational respondents. The opportunity is geographically limited to Hillsborough County, Florida, with CEJCO serving as the exclusive distributor for Grundfos Water Utility/Municipal products in the state. No incumbent vendors beyond CEJCO are mentioned, and the procurement seems focused on maintaining existing infrastructure compatibility. The procurement involves specialized water treatment equipment, suggesting potential integration requirements with existing municipal water treatment systems. While the specific budget range for future potential procurements is not explicitly detailed, the current quote of $39,149 provides an initial benchmark for the scale of investment. Contact support for this procurement is available through Cliff Allen at CEJCO's Tampa office, indicating potential opportunities for vendor communication and clarification.
