About this opportunity

Brevard County is pursuing a sole source procurement for mitigation bank credits through the Public Works Department, specifically targeting Basin 21 for two county projects: the DMMA project and the Island Pioneer Trail Connection project. The procurement involves purchasing forested estuarine mitigation credits from The Mitigation Banking Group (MBG), specifically from either the Webster Creek or Green Wing Mitigation Banks. Tetra Tech, serving as the county's project engineering consultant, has identified these as the only viable mitigation banks within the project's service area to meet St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD) permitting requirements. The procurement process is governed by Sole Source Approval ID #4640203, with a notice of intended decision posted from February 4, 2025, at 12:00 pm until February 7, 2025, at 12:00 pm on the Vendor Link platform. The county is seeking 0.55 total mitigation credits (0.45 for DMMA and 0.1 for Island Pioneer Trail Connection), with potential respondents invited to provide technical data if they believe they can meet or exceed the specified requirements.

The procurement appears to be unrestricted in terms of vendor type, with no specific set-aside designations or enterprise restrictions noted in the documentation. The total purchase amount is $181,500.00, which includes a 10% contingency, representing the full value of the mitigation bank credits. The sole source justification is predicated on the unique availability of credits in Basin 21, with MBG being the only current provider meeting the specific geographic and ecological requirements. No incumbent vendors beyond MBG are mentioned, and the procurement appears to be a one-time transaction for specific environmental compliance purposes. The county has structured the procurement to allow potential challenge if substantially similar products or services can be demonstrated, with the possibility of canceling the sole source notice and pursuing a formal solicitation if alternative providers can be identified. Contact for this procurement is Angel Dutton, located at 2725 Judge Fran Jamieson Way, Building C, Room 303, Viera, FL 32940.
