Single Source Central Control Systems - ICC Pro Controllers

The City of Tampa Parks and Recreation Department is pursuing a single-source procurement for Motorola computerized radio-controlled irrigation control system components and services from Central Control Systems. The contract specifically involves an upgrade from ICC PRO Version 4 to Version 7 Unlimited, along with a 4-year subscription for the software. The procurement covers proprietary Motorola irrigation control system equipment including ICC PRO Software, IRRlnet-ACE, IRRlnet-M, Scorpio, and Piccolo Units, as well as associated components such as radios, antennas, switchboards, relays, and power supplies. The primary objectives include system upgrade, annual maintenance, software review, and comprehensive staff training for irrigation system management. The contract covers periodic component upgrades and annual irrigation staff training, which can only be effectively provided by Central Control Systems, the exclusive authorized dealer for Motorola Irrigation products in Hillsborough County. The quote is valid for 30 days from December 2, 2024, with a total purchase amount of $6,738.00, broken down into a $3,984.00 upgrade and a $2,754.00 subscription. The due date for this opportunity is December 31, 2024.

The procurement appears to be a non-competitive, single-source contract without specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations. Central Control Systems is the sole authorized vendor for this proprietary system, which has been in use by the City of Tampa Parks and Recreation Department for the past 20 years. The existing infrastructure is a Motorola computerized radio-controlled MIR controller system that requires specialized maintenance and can only function with specific Motorola components. Mottech Water Solutions has designated Central Control Systems as the exclusive authorized dealer for Motorola Irrigation products in the region. The annual maintenance and staff training proposal is valued at $9,000, with the current quote totaling $6,738.00. The system is a high-performance SCADA technology capable of managing complex water systems across large geographic areas, and the contract emphasizes the necessity of using factory-trained personnel to maintain optimal system performance.
