About this opportunity

Written by GovTribe AI ·

Sarasota County is conducting a sole source procurement for McCrometer flow meters and parts through Solicitation Number 2024-ISS-148, with the intent to renew its contract with the Avanti Company. The procurement specifically targets propeller type flow meters with a spool design, which will be used across the county's water and reuse treatment systems. The solicitation was released on February 15, 2024, with a deadline for questions on February 20, 2024, and a response deadline of February 21, 2024, at 5:00 pm. Responses must be submitted electronically through the ProcureNow portal. The county seeks to maintain its existing infrastructure, which has incorporated McCrometer products for over 15 years, with staff familiar with the current system and platform. The procurement allows for potential competitive bidding if alternative vendors can demonstrate the ability to supply equivalent products and services, though the current procurement is structured as a sole source arrangement.

The solicitation is not specifically designated for disadvantaged enterprises, but it includes standard county procurement terms requiring vendor compliance with various state regulations. The incumbent vendor, Avanti Inc., is the sole authorized distributor for McCrometer products in Florida, Alabama, and Georgia for municipal markets. The contract is set for a one-year period from 03/15/2024 to 03/14/2025, with an estimated expenditure of $50,000.00 for the fiscal/contract year. Vendors must certify compliance with Florida statutes, including provisions related to scrutinized companies, convicted vendor lists, and public entity crime restrictions. The county is tax-exempt and will process payments through the Clerk of the Circuit Court in accordance with the Local Government Prompt Payment Act. Changing to an alternative system would require a complete engineering redesign and remodel, which underscores the county's preference for maintaining the current equipment and vendor relationship.
