About this opportunity

The City of Fort Myers is issuing a Notice of Intent to Award a sole-source contract to Elgin for parts and repairs to street sweeper equipment under Florida State Statute 287.057(3)(c), with responses due September 7, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. ET. This is not a formal solicitation; no submissions are required, and responses will not be treated as proposals, bids, or quotes. The sole-source justification rests on warranty voiding if any supplier other than Elgin is used.

The City will remain open to alternative suppliers during a fifteen-calendar-day notice period (through approximately September 4, 2026). Any vendor believing it can provide equivalent parts and repair services must submit product information, statements of qualifications, and capabilities through the vendor questionnaire to the Purchasing Agent, Kirk Zimmerman, at kzimmerman@fortmyers.gov within the fifteen-day window. Responses will be evaluated solely to determine whether a competitive procurement should be conducted. Vendors challenging the sole-source designation must provide documentation demonstrating capability to supply equivalent products or services while preserving the manufacturer's warranty.

No contract value, contract term, incumbent history, or pricing is disclosed in the notice.
