AI Contract Overview
Broward County has issued a Request for Information (RFI) to determine whether the ITW GSE Inc 400 Hz ground power units (GPU) cable assemblies, currently used on passenger boarding bridges at Fort Lauderdale–Hollywood International Airport, are available from multiple sources or if alternate products could meet the County’s needs. The County believes this commodity is only available as a single source due to the proprietary nature of ITW's cable assemblies and the incompatibility of replacement parts from other suppliers, which could disrupt operational continuity. This RFI is not a request for pricing or a purchase commitment but is intended to gather information about potential alternative sources or comparable products. Vendors who believe they can supply the specified commodity or service are encouraged to respond via the electronic bidding system by the deadline of June 26, 2026, providing any documentation to support their claim that their product meets or exceeds the County's requirements. The Director of Purchasing holds exclusive authority to determine whether submitted alternatives are comparable and will notify participating vendors of the decision, which is final and not subject to protest. The solicitation is managed by Broward County, Florida, with contact available through the designated points of contact listed in the notice.
