Maintenance for OPEX Equipment

The Florida Department of Revenue, operating under Leon County jurisdiction, is issuing a Notice of Intended Single Source Purchase (PUR 7776) for maintenance services on OPEX mailing equipment utilized by the General Tax Administration division. This is not a competitive solicitation but rather a single-source procurement notice that allows interested parties to demonstrate their capability to supply equivalent services. The department seeks a 12-month maintenance and software license agreement covering the contract period from July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. Prospective vendors must submit written information regarding their ability to provide the requested services by May 18, 2026 at 3:00 pm, with the posting period extending through June 3, 2026. The procurement requires specialized technical support and maintenance for proprietary OPEX equipment, including access to service diagnostic software protected by patents and copyrights. Vendors must demonstrate possession of specialized technical training and experience required to support and maintain the equipment. Inquiries regarding this opportunity should be directed to Tanisha Miller in the Purchasing Department at 850-717-6473 or Tanisha.Miller@floridarevenue.com.

OPEX Corporation has been identified as the intended single-source provider due to its status as the sole authorized provider for sales, parts, and services for this equipment, with justification based on the proprietary nature of the service diagnostic software that has not been released to third parties and OPEX's exclusive technical expertise. No specific set-aside designations or restrictions on organizational types are indicated in the procurement notice. The estimated contract value for this 12-month maintenance and software license agreement is $400,000.00. Prospective vendors should note that failure to file a protest within the time prescribed in Section 120.057(3), Florida Statutes, or failure to file a bond or other security within the allowed timeframe shall constitute a waiver of proceedings under Chapter 120, Florida Statutes.
