Notice of Intent to Utilize Cooperative Contract 052725-CXT from Sourcewell

The City of Thomasville, Georgia, issued a Notice of Intent to award a contract through Sourcewell Cooperative Purchasing Contract 052725-CXT for the procurement of a CXT Denali standard restroom unit for installation at a public park facility. The primary deliverable is a customizable restroom unit with specified options including paper towel holders, baby changing tables, ADA drinking fountain, door closures, hose bibs, ADA privacy latches, unisex signage, and triple-roll toilet paper dispensers. The contract represents a one-time purchase with a proposed term from March 2, 2026, through December 31, 2026. The City selected the cooperative purchasing approach because it determined the CXT Denali restroom product best meets the functional requirements for the intended application. The cooperative contract was originally awarded on July 2, 2025, and was competitively bid via Request for Proposal with national advertising across multiple publications including the New York State Contract Reporter, USA Today, and Public-Purchase. Any supplier capable of providing the same or superior products or services at equal or better value may file a written protest by March 11, 2026, in accordance with the City's Procurement Policy dated December 11, 2023. Inquiries regarding this notice should be directed to Lori McCardle, Purchasing Administrator, or Eve Geyer, Project Manager.

The supplier under the cooperative contract is CXT, Inc., with fulfillment through Hussey Seating's authorized dealer network, specifically Southeastern Surfaces and Equipment, identified as the only authorized dealer in Georgia. No set-aside designations or restrictions limiting organizational types from responding are noted in the procurement notice. The estimated contract award value is $140,933.27 for the restroom unit procurement and installation at the public park facility. Protests to this cooperative purchasing determination must be submitted in writing in accordance with the City's established Procurement Policy procedures. The notice does not indicate alternative vendors or competing bids, as the selection was made through the pre-established Sourcewell cooperative purchasing agreement.
