Intent to Single Source for Tree Plotter Inventory Advanced, Ecosystem Benefits, Landing Page, Projects, and Canopy

The City of Tampa, through its Parks & Recreation department, is seeking to single-source the Tree Plotter software system to support forestry operations, including post-storm damage assessment, crew routing, weekly activity reporting, and annual State of the Forest reporting. The system is critical for capturing tropical storm and hurricane damage data to streamline cleanup efforts and ensure compliance with city ordinances regarding tree planting and maintenance. The solicitation, numbered 25-X-01172, was posted on April 27, 2026, with responses due by April 30, 2026, and is limited to vendors who are authorized distributors or dealers of Tree Plotter, capable of providing warranty service, maintenance, and technical support. No formal contract clauses, evaluation factors, inspection procedures, or pricing details are included in the solicitation, as it is structured as an intent to single source, indicating a non-competitive award anticipated based solely on vendor authorization and service capability. The place of performance is in Tampa, Florida, with all system functionalities expected to support local forestry management needs without requiring physical delivery or packaging standards. Payment and invoicing procedures, accounting codes, contracting officer appointments, and certification requirements are not detailed, and the primary focus is on the vendor’s ability to deliver and sustain the software system in alignment with the city’s operational and reporting requirements.
