SS-19-044-BK Notice of Intent to Single Source.pdf

The City of Altamonte Springs intends to waive the solicitation process and approve a sole/single source to purchase pumps and parts for its existing ProMinent Fluid Controls, Inc. chemical feed system at the City’s RWRF from TriNova, Inc. for a five-year period. The justification for this decision is that ProMinent Fluid Controls, Inc. has designated TriNova, Inc. as the sole authorized municipal direct sales dealer/agent in Florida. Interested vendors can respond with an alternate solution to overcome the sole/single source reasons stated in the documentation. The City reserves the right to require additional information from responding vendors and will consider evidence of their qualifications. The City clarifies that this is not a request for bids or proposals and will only consider responses to determine if bona fide competition exists. If the sole/single source justification stands, the City will prepare a recommendation to waive the solicitation process and proceed with the sole/single-source purchase.
