Purchase of LMX100 Portable GPR

The City of Orlando, through its Water Reclamation Enterprises division, issued a sole source solicitation (S25-0421) on May 9, 2025, for the purchase of an LMX100 Portable Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) system. The contract identifies Green Equipment Company as the exclusive authorized distributor and factory service center for Radiodetection LLC’s LMX100 and LMX200 GPR systems within a multi-state territory including Florida, confirmed by several distributor authorization letters valid through the end of 2025. This designation forms the basis for the sole source procurement, with the City providing notice and inviting any other capable suppliers to submit qualifications by May 19, 2025. All responses are to be submitted by email directly to the designated Purchasing Agent, Varun Desai. The procurement documents do not specify detailed pricing, delivery schedules, technical specifications beyond the product model, or formal contract clauses typically found in FAR-based acquisitions. Inspection and acceptance are expected to occur at the City’s facilities in Florida, with the City retaining responsibility for these processes. There are no detailed packaging, marking, or special contract requirements outlined, nor are representations, certifications, or affirmative socio-economic status data provided for the supplier. The procurement relies on a sole source justification without competitive evaluation factors, and no amendments or contract modifications are noted. The solicitation process is managed administratively with primary points of contact clearly established, and all submissions are to be handled electronically via email within the stated timeframe.
