Notice of intent to single source allen enterprises, INC.

Collier County, Florida, through its Board of County Commissioners Procurement Services Division, is pursuing a single source procurement for airfield lighting equipment from ADB Safegate, with Allen Enterprises, Inc. designated as the intended provider. The comprehensive procurement covers an extensive range of airfield lighting infrastructure, including taxiway lights, PAPI lights, REIL lights, lighting fixture parts, control boards/panels, fixture connectors, castings, mounting plates, wiring attachments, airfield signage panels, frames, light bulbs, wiring, couplings, isolation transformers, windsock lights, and related accessories. The procurement period is set from June 16, 2025, to September 30, 2030, with a submission deadline of Monday, June 23, 2025, at 3:00 pm. This procurement is not a traditional bid or quote process, but rather a notice seeking verification that the specifications are non-restrictive and can potentially be met by multiple companies. The Procurement Services Division will review any responses from companies challenging the single source designation, with the sole discretion to determine the approved status of alternative commodity offerings.

The procurement appears to have no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations. Interested parties who disagree with the single source designation are required to submit a detailed explanation with documentation demonstrating alternative qualified sources. No specific budget range or award value is explicitly stated in the documentation. The procurement is focused on standardization and potentially existing infrastructure compatibility, with ADB Safegate being the primary manufacturer of the required equipment. The county is essentially seeking market validation of their intended single source approach, leaving open the possibility of alternative providers if compelling evidence is presented. The procurement does not indicate any preferences for disadvantaged enterprises or specific vendor classification requirements, maintaining a neutral stance on potential respondents.
