Vertical jump training system

Dougherty County School System in Albany, Georgia has issued a Sole Source Intent to Award notice for the procurement of a vertical jump training system from VertiMax, LLC, with responses demonstrating competitive capability due by October 10, 2022 at 12:00 PM EST.

The school system intends to award to VertiMax for two VertiMax V8 Extended Range systems, each configured with 8 bands, 4'×6' platform, 4'×4' landing mat, and accessories including user manuals, waist harness belts, hip flexor sets, ankle strap sets, palm strap sets, hand grips, and 360-degree belts. This is a sole-source procurement; interested firms may submit written responses establishing capability to meet or exceed VertiMax's specifications to demonstrate that competitive procurement would be advantageous, cost-effective, time-feasible, and aligned with mission objectives. The school system will consider responses only if they provide clear and convincing documentation of equivalent capability.

The contract value is $10,317.35, comprising two VertiMax V8 Extended Range systems at $4,895.00 each ($9,790.00 total), economy shipping at $446.37, and lift gate services at $80.98. Contracts exceeding $20,000 require Board of Education approval; this procurement does not trigger that threshold.

This notice is not a formal Request for Proposals. The school system will incur no responsibility for costs incurred by responding entities. The Director of Logistical Services retains final determination authority to compete or proceed with sole source award. All inquiries and responses must be submitted in writing to Sharonda Thompson, Director of Logistical Services, 601 Flint Avenue, Albany, GA 31701, or via email at sharonda.thompson@docoschools.org, with project ID SN-SoleSource-64710-33 noted in all correspondence.
