Project Description: Notice of Intent to Designate Sole Source/Sole Brand:
This Request for Information (RFI)/Notice of Intent to Designate Sole Source is to determine if the specified commodity or service is available from multiple providers, or if an alternate commodity or service is available that would meet the County’s needs. This is not a request for pricing or a purchase commitment.
The following commodity or service is thought to be available from only a sole source (or one reasonable source) and is the only commodity/services that meets the County’s needs:
The Fleet Services Division (FSD) seeks to procure a Sole Source of Structural and System Repairs of Altec Crane TE0028 from Altec Industries Inc, to provide for a comprehensive structural and mechanical restoration. Required repairs include the replacement of the street-side front outrigger cylinder and rotation bearing caps crews, followed by proprietary rotation gearbox and stability tests. Due to the severity of the accident and the unit’s 10-year service interval, the scope also requires a complete boom disassembly, visual weld inspection, and the replacement of all extend/retract cables, sheaves, and wear pads. This project restores an Altec proprietary crane and it is believed that only Altec-certified technicians have access to the proprietary diagnostic software required to recalibrate the Load Moment Area Protection (LMAP) and safety control systems, which are essential for preventing future accidents.
This RFI will remain posted until closing date and time.
Prospective Vendors are requested to provide information regarding their ability to provide the commodity or service described or written explanation or other documentation contesting the proposed RFI designation.
If you are capable of meeting or exceeding the County’s requirements for the specified commodity or service, respond to this RFI through the electronic bidding system. Vendor should upload any supporting information in the electronic bidding system as part of its response to assist the County in determining if commodity or service is comparable, is available from multiple suppliers, and meets the County’s needs. The Director of Purchasing shall have sole authority in deciding what is comparable.
The Director of Purchasing shall consider such submittals and notify all submitting vendors (thru the electronic bidding system) of the decision whether to designate as a Sole Source/Brand, which decision shall not be subject to objection, protest, or appeal.
