UDOT Notice of Sole Source-3-Layer Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) System

The Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) is issuing a Notice of Intent to Award a Contract for a 3-Layer Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) System without engaging in a standard competitive procurement process. This is a sole source procurement notice, which means UDOT has determined that only one source exists for this procurement item, or that transitional costs are significant, or that awarding through standard procurement would be impractical and contrary to the best interests of the agency. The primary objective of this notice is to solicit public comment and identify whether any other interested and qualified suppliers meet the specific requirements for this 3-Layer FRP System procurement. Interested parties are requested to review the detailed justification documentation provided in the attached General Information document. The notice was posted on May 13, 2026, with a comment period deadline of May 19, 2026. No action is required from parties who agree that this sole source procurement is valid and appropriate.

The notice does not specify set-aside designations or restrictions on bidder qualifications, disadvantaged enterprise requirements, incumbent vendors, current contractors, or specific award values and budget ranges within the publicly available information provided. Potential respondents should review the attached General Information document for complete details regarding any organizational restrictions, qualifications requirements, integration with existing UDOT infrastructure or technology systems, and the anticipated contract value. Suppliers interested in demonstrating their capability to provide this 3-Layer FRP System should submit their qualifications and relevant information prior to the May 19, 2026 deadline to ensure consideration in this procurement process.
