About this opportunity

A Florida county is posting a Notice of Intent to Designate Sole Source/Sole Brand for pressure transducers manufactured by In-Situ Inc. and related components, with responses due July 31, 2026. The county is soliciting this RFI to determine whether the specified commodity is available from multiple providers or whether an alternate product exists that would meet its needs.

The pressure transducers and components monitor groundwater levels, surface water levels in lakes and canals within the county's water control districts, and surface water recharge systems. The In-Situ transducers integrate with the Water and Wastewater Services SCADA hardware and software infrastructure currently deployed for water-level monitoring. The county has determined that this equipment may be the only commodity meeting its operational requirements.

Prospective vendors may respond through the county's electronic bidding system with information demonstrating their ability to provide comparable products, explanations or documentation contesting the sole-source designation, or evidence that multiple suppliers can meet the county's specifications. Vendors should upload supporting documentation to assist the county in evaluating whether alternative products are comparable, available from multiple sources, and capable of meeting its needs. The Director of Purchasing holds sole authority to determine comparability and decide whether to designate the commodity as sole source or sole brand. All submitting vendors will be notified of the Director's decision through the electronic bidding system.

This RFI is not a request for pricing or a purchase commitment.
