About this opportunity

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The City of Fort Myers Procurement Division is issuing a Notice of Intent to Award for sole-source procurement of service and parts to maintain Kubota UTVs from Creel Tractor, with the notice active through September 7, 2026, at 4:00 p.m. (ET). This is not a formal solicitation; the City intends to negotiate and award with a single source under Florida State Statute 287.057(3)(c). The sole-source justification is warranty protection — using any supplier other than Creel Tractor voids the manufacturer's warranty on Kubota UTV equipment.

The procurement covers sales, rentals, service, and parts support for Kubota UTVs. Creel Tractor has been identified as the exclusive source.

Suppliers who believe they are capable of providing the same or equivalent product or service may submit product information, a statement of qualifications, and capabilities to the Purchasing Agent, Kirk Zimmerman, at kzimmerman@fortmyers.gov. Such responses will be considered solely to determine whether the City should conduct a competitive procurement and will not be treated as proposals, bids, or quotes. The fifteen-day notice period runs from August 20 through September 7, 2026. No contract value, term, or detailed pricing is specified in this notice phase.
