About this opportunity

Sarasota County is conducting a sole source procurement for Tideflex, RKL, Red Valve products and related accessories through the Public Works Department, specifically targeting check valves used in pipeline systems to prevent stormwater and tidal waters from backflowing. The procurement is with Fluid Control Specialties LLC, who is the authorized manufacturer's representative for DeZURIK brands in Florida (excluding ten panhandle counties). The solicitation covers original equipment manufacturer (OEM) repair parts and maintenance under warranty, with a focus on specialized check valves featuring a patented Curved Bill design that offers enhanced sealing capabilities and flexibility. The contract is set for a one-year period from 6/5/2024 to 6/4/2025, with electronic responses required through the ProcureNow portal by April 25, 2024, at 5:00 pm. Potential respondents must submit an Intent to Sole Source Response form, and the county reserves the right to cancel the sole source procurement and pursue a competitive solicitation if alternative vendors can demonstrate equivalent product and service capabilities.

The procurement does not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The current incumbent, Fluid Control Specialties LLC, is the sole authorized vendor for these specific product lines in Florida. The estimated expenditure remains consistent at $50,000 per fiscal year, with a not-to-exceed contract amount of $150,000. Vendors must comply with state statutes, provide employment eligibility verification, and adhere to regulations concerning scrutinized companies lists. Insurance requirements and public records compliance are mandatory for potential contractors. The county is exempt from state and local taxes for direct payments, and the procurement process allows for potential competitive solicitation if other vendors can prove comparable product and service capabilities.

Opportunity text

Sarasota County intends to renew a sole source procurement with Fluid Control Specialties LLC for the purchase of Tideflex, RKL, Red Valve and appurtenances including OEM repair parts and maintenance for a period of one year.

In the event respondents demonstrate the ability to supply the same or substantially similar products and service the County may, in its sole discretion, elect to cancel this sole source and advertise a competitive solicitation.
