About this opportunity

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The City of Altamonte Springs, Florida is seeking to procure a mechanical belt screen and a wash press for its Regional Water Reclamation Facility (RWRF) through a sole source procurement with HUBER Technology, Inc. The city intends to waive the formal solicitation process and declare HUBER Technology as the sole source vendor for these critical wastewater treatment components. The procurement is designed to enhance operational efficiency and provide redundancy in the facility's equipment, with the specific goal of removing materials and trash from raw wastewater while protecting downstream equipment. The Notice of Intent was posted on March 14, 2025, with an opportunity for alternative vendors to submit competing solutions by 4:30 p.m. on March 19, 2025. Interested vendors were invited to provide alternative solutions that could overcome the sole source justification, with the city reserving the right to request additional information and evaluate vendors' financial and technical qualifications. The procurement is scheduled for City Commission approval on April 1, 2025, and the contract term will extend through the fiscal year ending September 30, 2025.

The solicitation does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. HUBER Technology, Inc. is identified as the original equipment manufacturer and the only source of authorized service technicians and OEM replacement parts in the United States, with Moss Kelley, Inc./MKI Services, Inc. representing them in Florida. The current infrastructure includes two existing mechanical screens installed during the 2016 Headworks Improvements project, and the new procurement aims to provide complete redundancy in case of unexpected equipment failure. The total procurement value is $348,930, with sufficient funds available in the current budget. The procurement exceeds the $50,000 formal solicitation threshold, which necessitates City Commission approval. The equipment will be critical for maintaining the operational integrity of the Altamonte Springs Regional Water Reclamation Facility by ensuring reliable wastewater treatment processes.
