DebrisClear System for District Seven.

The Florida Department of Transportation is procuring fifteen DebrisClear automated debris removal systems from IC Innovations LLC under a single-source contract for use by its District Seven Road Ranger program. The acquisition, identified by solicitation number DOT-SSC-26-7015-EG and authorized under Florida Statute 287.057(3)(c), is justified by the uniqueness of the patented DebrisClear system, which features behind-the-bumper mounting, automatic speed-controlled deployment via an integrated governor, and seamless compatibility with existing Road Ranger vehicle operations. No commercially available alternatives meet these specific technical requirements, and IC Innovations LLC is the sole manufacturer and authorized provider, with no resellers in the market. The total estimated contract value is $358,500 at a unit price of $23,900 per system. Delivery and performance are expected within Florida, specifically for use by FDOT District Seven operations centered in Tampa, though exact delivery locations and performance timelines are not specified. The system is protected by international patent WO 2021/062104 A1 and must be installed without altering OEM bumper components. Procurement requires formal notice, legal review by FDOT’s Office of General Counsel, and compliance with state protest waiver provisions under Chapter 120. No competitive evaluation factors, formal inspection standards, detailed packaging or marking specifications, invoicing methods, payment details, or accounting codes are provided. The point of contact for procurement inquiries is Enrique Garcia Granados, and submissions must be made through the Vendor Bid System by the deadline of May 15, 2026. The acquisition does not involve small business set-asides, socioeconomic certifications, or federal contract clauses, reflecting a state-specific sole-source procurement process.
