Single Source Provider for GameTime proprietary replacement playground equipment

The Florida School for the Deaf and the Blind (FSDB) has issued a single-source procurement notice for GameTime proprietary replacement playground equipment for fiscal year 2024-2025, specifically targeting replacement parts for existing playground equipment installed on their campus. This is not a competitive solicitation but a notice of intended single-source contract under Florida Statutes 287.057(3) and 120.57(3). The procurement is limited to GameTime replacement parts, with Dominica Recreation Products, Inc. identified as the sole authorized supplier for these components in the state of Florida. The contract is classified under commodity codes 49241500 (Playground equipment) and 49241600 (Recreational equipment), with a not-to-exceed budget of $12,000.00. The procurement timeline runs from January 10, 2025, to January 31, 2025, with the advertisement period closing at 4:00 PM on the final date. Interested parties are directed to contact Kim Whitwam, Director of Purchasing, for any questions regarding the procurement.

This single-source procurement does not appear to have specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations. Dominica Recreation Products, Inc. is explicitly positioned as the exclusive representative for GameTime equipment, with the sole ability to modify, add to, or process replacement parts for existing GameTime playground equipment throughout Florida. The procurement is geographically focused on St. Johns County, with the Florida School for the Deaf and the Blind as the procuring agency. No incumbent vendors beyond Dominica Recreation Products are mentioned, and the procurement seems focused on maintaining existing playground infrastructure by securing proprietary replacement components. The estimated contract value is $12,000.00, representing a relatively small-scale procurement aimed at maintaining existing playground equipment on the FSDB campus.
