About this opportunity
Collier County, Florida is pursuing a sole source procurement for Thor Guard, Inc. to provide lightning prediction equipment and services for County Parks facilities. The procurement seeks comprehensive services including de-installation of existing older Thor Guard model systems, software licensing for Thor Server, equipment shipping/handling, and new lightning prediction equipment installation. The contract is structured for a five-year term from October 1, 2025, to September 30, 2030, with a specific solicitation timeline requiring responses by June 3, 2025, at 3:00 pm through the County Procurement Services Online Bidding System. The procurement is being conducted under Collier County Procurement Ordinance 17-08, which allows sole source designation when a supplier offers unique technological capabilities or proprietary solutions. While Thor Guard, Inc. is the intended sole source provider, the county will accept alternative source documentation from respondents, though they are explicitly prohibited from submitting pricing information. The Procurement Services Division retains complete discretion in evaluating and determining the validity of any alternative source submissions.
The procurement does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions on respondent organization types. No information is provided about disadvantaged enterprise participation or specific vendor diversity requirements. The sole source nature of the procurement suggests limited competitive opportunity, with Thor Guard, Inc. being the primary and potentially exclusive vendor for the specified lightning prediction equipment and services. While specific award values or budget ranges are not disclosed in the documentation, the comprehensive five-year contract involves multiple service components including equipment de-installation, software licensing, shipping, and new equipment installation across County Parks facilities. The procurement appears focused on maintaining and upgrading existing lightning prediction infrastructure with a vendor possessing specialized technological capabilities. Interested parties must engage directly with the Collier County Procurement Services Division and submit any alternative source documentation through their Online Bidding System by the stated deadline.
