About this opportunity
The City of Altamonte Springs in Seminole County, Florida, is pursuing a single-source procurement for consulting services with SFB Consulting, LLC through a unique waiver of standard solicitation processes. The procurement focuses on obtaining specialized consulting services with specific objectives, including providing information about North American transportation market opportunities, supporting innovation partnerships, and developing STEM learning initiatives for the Altamonte Global Innovation Lab (AGiL). The procurement allows for alternative vendor submissions that could potentially challenge the sole-source justification, with responses required to be submitted to Procurement Manager Roxana Siaca-Jones by 4:30 p.m. on January 3, 2025. Interested vendors must provide detailed documentation demonstrating their ability to supply equivalent commodities or services that could overcome the single-source rationale. The city explicitly reserves the right to request additional information and evaluate responding vendors' financial, technical, and operational qualifications. The procurement process is designed to be transparent, allowing potential alternative vendors an opportunity to present competitive solutions.
The procurement does not explicitly outline specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. No specific budget range or award value was disclosed in the available documentation. The current procurement appears focused solely on SFB Consulting, LLC as the preferred vendor, with the potential for alternative vendors to challenge this designation. The consulting services will be procured on an as-needed basis, suggesting a flexible engagement model. The scope of work includes supporting innovation initiatives, market research, and project assistance, which implies a broad and adaptable consulting arrangement. The city's approach indicates a preference for a specialized vendor with unique capabilities in transportation market intelligence and innovation partnership development. The procurement was noted as not requiring formal Commission approval, suggesting an administrative-level decision-making process.
