Sole Source For MKI

Brevard County is pursuing a sole source procurement from Moss Kelley Inc. (MKI Service Inc.) for the removal and replacement of a Huber barscreen at the South Beaches Wastewater Treatment Plant. The procurement is specifically targeting specialized equipment and service from Huber Technology Inc., a subsidiary of the original manufacturer Huber SE, which is the only authorized service provider for this equipment in the United States and Canada. The procurement is governed by Florida Statutes section 287.057(5)(3)(c) and Brevard County Policy BCC-25, with the Utility Services Department leading the initiative. The Notice of Intended Decision was posted on November 17, 2025, with a response deadline of November 20, 2025, at 12:00 p.m. Potential respondents who believe they can meet or exceed the requirements may submit technical documentation to challenge the sole source designation. The primary contact for this procurement is Heather Riley, who can be reached at 321-617-7390 or heather.riley@brevardfl.gov.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations were explicitly detailed in the procurement documents. The county reserves the right to cancel the sole source notice and pursue a formal competitive solicitation if other respondents can demonstrate substantially similar products or services. While no precise award value was specified, the sole source justification form indicates that procurements between $100,000 and $200,000 require county manager approval, and amounts exceeding $200,000 need Board of County Commissioners approval. The existing infrastructure involves a Huber barscreen at the South Beaches Wastewater Treatment Plant, which requires specialized replacement and service. MKI Service Inc. is positioned as the exclusive authorized service provider for this specific equipment. All signatories to the procurement documents must attest to compliance with Florida Statutes Chapter 838 and confirm independence from any conflicts of interest.
