Swipe Card-Based Access Control System

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), specifically the Office of Motor Carrier Size & Weight (MCSAW), is pursuing a single source procurement for an intelligent swipe card-based access control system for Mainline Weigh in Motion cabinets across multiple weigh stations. The procurement seeks a comprehensive system that will enable current FDOT security badge holders to access security cabinets without traditional keys, with specific requirements including real-time reporting, access management capabilities, detailed security audit trails, statewide operational usability, and robust data security protections. The procurement is for a one-year contract term with an estimated contract value of $56,394.00. Control Technologies, Inc. is the intended single source vendor, justified by their unique compatibility with existing MCSAW cabinet infrastructure and the inability to duplicate emergency keys. The solicitation was posted on November 5, 2025, with a vendor information submission deadline of December 1, 2025, at 5:00 p.m. EST. Interested vendors must submit their information to Jocelyn Moore via email at CO.Purch@dot.state.fl.us or through the specified mailing address.

The procurement appears to be unrestricted in terms of set-aside designations or specific enterprise requirements. Control Technologies, Inc. is the incumbent and proposed vendor, selected based on their proprietary access control system that integrates with existing MCSAW cabinet locks and key infrastructure. The system must provide seamless compatibility with current FDOT security protocols and badge systems. No competitive bidding process is indicated, as this is a single source procurement predicated on vendor-specific technical capabilities. The contract will cover access control system installation services across FDOT's Motor Carrier Size & Weight operations, with a total estimated contract value of $56,394.00. The procurement contact, Pamela Blake from the Office of Motor Carrier Size & Weight, and procurement liaison Jocelyn Moore, will manage vendor communications and potential follow-up inquiries regarding the proposed single source purchase contract.
