About this opportunity
Pinellas County Government is pursuing a non-competitive procurement for a comprehensive Urban Search and Rescue (US&R) Rescue Strut System through the Safety and Emergency Department. The solicitation (Solicitation #25-0513-N) seeks to establish a contract for technical rescue equipment to be ordered on an as-needed basis, with proposals due on April 22, 2025, at 3:00 PM EST. The procurement will follow a non-competitive process under section 287.057(3)(c) of Florida Statutes, with the notice posted for a minimum of 15 business days. The procurement involves acquiring a detailed inventory of 35 distinct equipment components, including strut extensions in various lengths (12", 24", 36"), base plates, rail systems, adjustable brackets, air hoses, and a Rescue Guardian Kit. Interested firms must submit a corporate letter demonstrating their authorization to provide items and services within Florida via the OpenGov platform, with the contact person being Sharon Beacht, Procurement Analyst Coordinator, reachable at sbeacht@pinellas.gov or (727) 464-5255.
The procurement appears to be exclusively available to TEAM Equipment Inc., which has been identified as the sole distributor of the Paratech Product Line in Florida. No specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises were explicitly mentioned in the documents. The total equipment purchase is valued at $164,806.20, which includes a primary US&R Rescue Strut System and supplementary components. The procurement is intended to replace a 20-year-old structural collapse support system, with the new equipment being standardized and used by FEMA US&R teams. Team Equipment Inc. has previously supplied similar equipment, having replaced Clearwater's equipment in 2021 under contract 22-0222-PB. The project is being managed by John Murphy and involves acquiring critical infrastructure for emergency rescue operations, with the equipment designed to support collapsed structures during rescue incidents. The non-competitive procurement has been reviewed and approved by a Non-Competitive Oversight Committee that includes members Merry Celeste, Don Crowell, Chris Rose, and a department ACA representative.
