SUBJECT:
Approval of the purchase of Traffic System Equipment from Econolite Group, Inc. in the amount of $46,549.00.
SUMMARY:
Approval for the purchase of traffic system equipment from Econolite Control Group, Inc of Jacksonville , FL in the amount of $46,549.00. Econolite is the City's sole source manufacturer and provider of closed loop traffic systems controls.
The Procurement Department has reviewed and investigated this request, and found all terms and conditions meet the requirements of the City of Fort Pierce. Econolite Control Group, Inc., was approved as a "sole source" vendor by the Commission for FY2006 - FY2013. It is on this basis that I recommend that competitive procurement be waived and that the above item be treated as a “Sole Source” commodity.
