Servicing and Repairs of the Rifle Range Target Air Systems

The City of Orlando Police Department (OPD) is seeking a sole source procurement for servicing and repairing rifle range target air systems, with Action Target, Inc. identified as the exclusive supplier. The procurement, marked with Sole Source Number S25-0075, specifically covers maintenance and repair services for the existing firearms training equipment and range systems currently in use by the OPD. Action Target is positioning itself as the original manufacturer with unique capabilities, holding a GSA contract (GSA #GS-07F-0482Y) and emphasizing that they are the only authorized provider of replacement parts and factory service for their systems. The solicitation was issued on November 11, 2024, with responses due by November 18, 2024, at 5:00 pm, and will remain active for seven calendar days. During this period, alternative suppliers are invited to submit product information, statements of qualifications, or capabilities if they believe they can provide comparable services. The procurement process allows for potential suppliers to challenge the sole source designation by submitting qualifying information to Cindy Jordan, the Purchasing Agent, via email at cynthia.jordan@orlando.gov or by phone at (407) 246-2367.

The procurement appears to be a restricted, sole source opportunity specifically targeting Action Target, Inc., with no explicit set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises mentioned. The company has emphasized its unique position by highlighting its incorporation in Utah in 1986, federal tax ID of 26-2492705, and DUNS number of 36-115-8918. Action Target explicitly warns that any repairs, service, maintenance, or replacement parts not provided by their company will void existing warranties and cannot be supported, effectively limiting potential competition. While no specific contract value or budget range is disclosed in the documents, the procurement is focused on specialized firearms training equipment maintenance for the Orlando Police Department. The existing infrastructure involves Action Target's proprietary rifle range target air systems, with the company holding copyright and patent protections on most major items, which further reinforces their sole source status. No alternative vendors or incumbent contractors are mentioned beyond Action Target, and the procurement appears to be a direct continuation of existing equipment maintenance and service relationships.
