Intent to Single Source - Non-Metallic Polychem/Brentwood Parts

The City of Tampa's Wastewater Treatment Plant has issued a state and local contract opportunity (ID: 685ee4e7453e55f5fa069402) for a single-source procurement of non-metallic Polychem/Brentwood parts located in Hillsborough County, Florida. This procurement is specifically targeting specialized parts for wastewater treatment equipment manufactured by Brentwood Industries, indicating a highly specific and targeted acquisition. The contract opportunity was posted on May 1, 2025, with a due date of February 5, 2025, suggesting a structured procurement timeline. The procurement appears to be a direct single-source acquisition, which means the city has determined that only one vendor can provide the required parts or equipment. The primary objective of this procurement is to secure critical replacement parts for the wastewater treatment facility's infrastructure, ensuring continuous operational capability and maintenance of essential municipal utility systems.

The contract opportunity does not explicitly outline set-aside designations or specific restrictions on responding organizations. Given the single-source nature of the procurement, it appears that Brentwood Industries is the sole potential vendor for these specialized parts. No specific budget range or award value is provided in the available documentation. The procurement is geographically limited to Hillsborough County and the City of Tampa's municipal systems. While detailed vendor qualifications are not specified, the single-source designation suggests that Brentwood Industries has unique technical capabilities or proprietary specifications that make them the only viable supplier for these specific non-metallic parts. The procurement appears focused on maintaining existing wastewater treatment infrastructure through targeted, manufacturer-specific component acquisition.
