ABB Magnetic Flow Meters Calibrations

The City of Hollywood intends to award a sole-source contract for the calibration of ABB Magnetic Flow Meters, valued at approximately $60,142.76. This procurement is not a competitive bid but falls under the sole-source authority granted by City Code Section 38.41 (C) (2), allowing the city to negotiate exclusively with a single provider due to the specialized nature of the services required. The decision for sole-source procurement is justified by the complexity of the installed ABB instrumentation and the necessity to use original equipment manufacturer (OEM) test and calibration equipment exclusively supplied by ABB Inc. This ensures proper routine maintenance and repair adherence. The solicitation, identified as NTSS-405-26, is managed by the Public Utilities department within the city of Hollywood, Florida. While the city has issued a Notice of Intent to solicit potential interest, any responses received will only serve to assess future competitiveness and will not be treated as bids or proposals. The designated contacts for this procurement are Kellvy Angeles, the Process Control Systems Administrator, and Jean Joinville, the Procurement Manager, who can be reached via provided email and phone contacts. The work will be performed within the state of Florida, and further details are accessible through the city's procurement portal.
