AI Contract Overview
Broward County is seeking information to evaluate whether the Bubenzer brakes and rail clamps specified for use on all container gantry cranes at Port Everglades are available from multiple suppliers or if an alternative solution can meet operational requirements.

Vendors are invited to respond with documentation demonstrating their ability to supply comparable products or services, including technical specifications and evidence of capability, through the electronic bidding system. Responses must be submitted by the deadline, and the Director of Purchasing retains exclusive authority to determine whether the designated sole source remains valid or if the requirement may be opened to competitive sourcing. All responses will be reviewed without obligation to purchase, and the final decision on sole source designation is final and not subject to protest or appeal. The RFI is open for submissions from June 23, 2026, through July 1, 2026, and must be submitted via the designated portal with contact information provided for inquiries.
