About this opportunity

Brevard County Board of County Commissioners is conducting a sole source procurement for United Plastics Fabricating Inc. to provide fabrication and repair services for UPF brand Poly Tanks specifically designed for Brevard County Fire Rescue (BCFR) Fire Apparatus. This specialized procurement is for polypropylene water and foam tank assemblies that are non-interchangeable direct replacement components for existing fire apparatus equipment. The sole source justification is being processed under Florida Statutes section 287.057(5)(3)(c) and Brevard County Policy BCC-25, with a specific focus on acquiring unique tanks that cannot be substituted with alternative products. The procurement notice was posted on November 12, 2025, and will remain open until November 17, 2025, at 12:00 p.m., during which time interested respondents may submit technical documentation demonstrating their capability to meet or exceed the stated requirements. Potential vendors must provide comprehensive technical data to prove equivalency, understanding that the County may cancel the sole source notice and pursue a formal solicitation if equivalent alternatives are identified. The primary contact for this procurement is Heather Riley from the Fire Rescue Department, who can be reached at 321-617-7390 or heather.riley@brevardfl.gov.

The procurement is a one-time purchase with a total value of $11,000 and appears to have no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises. United Plastics Fabricating Inc. is positioned as the sole manufacturer and provider of the Poly Tank brand, with no indication of alternative vendors capable of meeting the specialized requirements. The vendor can be contacted through Michelle Kobussen at 978-989-0201 or UPFSales@unitedplastic.com. The procurement was initiated by Tracey Breen from the Fire Rescue Fleet division and approved by Mary Bowers in the Central Services office on November 12, 2025, with the approval ID 4841110. No competitive bidding process was conducted due to the unique and specialized nature of the required poly tanks and associated repair services. The procurement is specific to the existing fire apparatus infrastructure and requires direct, non-interchangeable replacement components that only United Plastics Fabricating Inc. can provide.
