Sole Source - Derq USA, Inc

Brevard County Board of County Commissioners is proceeding with a sole-source procurement for vehicle and pedestrian detection equipment at existing signalized intersections with Derq USA, Inc., with responses due August 19, 2026 under Sole Source ID 5110814. The procurement invokes Florida Statutes section 287.057(5)(3)(c) and Brevard County Policy BCC-25, foreclosing competitive bidding.

The justification document establishes that Derq USA, Inc. possesses proprietary technology and specialized expertise that cannot be readily replicated by competing vendors, and that competitive procurement methods would be impractical or inefficient given the technical specifications, performance requirements, and integration capabilities required for the county's existing traffic signal infrastructure.

The requesting department is Brevard County Public Works. Respondents who believe they can provide substantially similar products or services are invited to submit technical data supporting their qualifications; the county reserves the right to cancel this notice and proceed with formal solicitation if comparable alternatives are presented. Heather Riley (Brevard County Public Works, 2725 Judge Fran Jamieson Way, Building C, Room 303, Viera, Florida 32940; 321-617-7390; heather.riley@brevardfl.gov) is the contact for this procurement.
