Notice of intent to designate single source for comcast

Collier County, Florida has issued a Notice of Intent to Designate Single Source for Comcast, focusing on procuring basic hardwired cable television services for local government use. The procurement specifically targets cable TV services that will provide access to live broadcasts of local government meetings, local and national news, and weather channels. This single source procurement is scheduled to cover a contract period from October 1, 2025, to September 30, 2029. The notice was released on Monday, September 29, 2025, with a submission deadline of Monday, October 20, 2025, at 3:00 pm. Interested parties who disagree with the single source designation are invited to submit alternative qualified source documentation through the Collier County Procurement Services Division Online Bidding System. The procurement emphasizes that this is not a request for pricing or a commitment to purchase, and the Procurement Services Division will be the sole authority in reviewing and deciding on any alternative source proposals. Their decision will be final and not subject to objection, protest, or appeal.

The procurement does not indicate specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations. Comcast is identified as both the manufacturer and vendor/provider, with the single source justification listed as "NO VALUE". No specific budget range or award value is provided in the documentation. The notice does not mention integration requirements with existing infrastructure or technology, nor does it outline any preferences for disadvantaged enterprises. The procurement appears to be focused solely on securing cable television services for Collier County's governmental communication needs. Respondents are encouraged to submit any alternative source proposals directly through the county's online bidding system, with the understanding that the Procurement Services Division will have final discretion in evaluating and selecting potential providers.
