Intent to Single Source Axon Signal Sensor

The City of Tampa Police Department is seeking to single source signal devices that are part of the Axon suite of products, which are currently used daily for digital evidence uploads to the Evidence.com hosted platform. This preliminary notice, identified as an Intent to Single Source with solicitation number 26-X-01597, indicates an intent to award a contract without full competitive bidding due to the specialized nature of the equipment and its integration with existing systems. The procurement requires that any respondent be an authorized manufacturer’s distributor or dealer with the ability to quote the specific Axon signal devices and provide ongoing warranty service, maintenance, or repairs as needed by the City. Prospective vendors must submit documentation proving their authorized distributor status to be considered eligible. The contracting office is located at 2555 E. Hanna Ave, Tampa, FL 33610, with Mike Terracciano serving as the primary point of contact for technical inquiries and Lewina Woodard as the procurement analyst responsible for administrative matters. No pricing details, delivery schedules, contract duration, or award evaluation weights are included in this notice, as it is a pre-solicitation announcement designed to confirm vendor capability before proceeding with the award. All responses must demonstrate full compliance with the authorization and support requirements, and failure to provide valid documentation of authorized vendor status will result in disqualification.
