Notice of Intended Sole Source: Mutualink, Inc RemoteView & LNK360

Valencia College in Florida has issued a Notice of Intended Sole Source Purchase for the Mutualink RemoteView and LNK360 System, a move that bypasses competitive bidding and commits to procurement from Mutualink, Inc. exclusively. The college intends to begin a seven business day posting process following completion of its sole source justification in accordance with Valencia College procurement procedures.

Mutualink holds 48 patents and is the sole manufacturer, developer, and distributor of this integrated emergency communications and situational awareness platform. The vendor also holds Designation and Certification from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security under the SAFETY Act (Support Anti-terrorism by Fostering Effective Technology), making it the only multimedia interoperable communications product certified under this program and included on the Approved Products List for Homeland Security — the justification for sole source status.

The procurement encompasses equipment, licenses, software, and services, including panic buttons, touch gateways, multimedia connections, and centralized monitoring software designed to provide real-time panic notification, multimedia sharing, facility monitoring, and interoperable communication capabilities across campus facilities. No specific quantities, contract value, contract term, renewal options, or funding source are disclosed in this notice of intent.
