Sole Source - Modular Vehicle Barrier System w/ Trailer

The City of Port St. Lucie is procuring a single integrated modular vehicle barrier system from Advanced Security Technologies LLC under a sole source arrangement to enhance safety at public events by preventing unauthorized vehicle access to pedestrian zones. The system includes 20 MVB3X barrier units, each weighing less than 53 pounds, designed for tool-free, one-person deployment in under ten seconds, with a foldable modular structure that can pivot to form gates and rearrange quickly to accommodate varying event layouts. These units are certified to ASTM F2656-15 Level 3, ASTM/PAS 68, and IWA standards and are designated under the Department of Homeland Security’s SAFETY Act, ensuring they meet rigorous crash resistance and anti-terrorism performance benchmarks. The system is contained on a custom 5x8 foot US DOT-compliant trailer constructed of powder-coated steel, capable of holding all 20 barrier units and 10 pivot units, equipped with LED lighting, stabilizing jacks, a spare tire, zinc-coated hardware, and loadable access from both sides. All components are manufactured in the United States, colored safety yellow, and feature an open design with no metal piece exceeding 18” x 24” to prevent concealment, while magnetic sequential lighting units provide enhanced visibility during low-light conditions. The contract is a firm fixed-price delivery of one complete system for $69,580 with an 8- to 12-week delivery window after receipt of order, delivered F.O.B. destination to the City’s facility in Port St. Lucie, Florida, with payment terms of net 30 days. No formal FAR clauses are referenced in the solicitation, and no evaluation factors or competitive bidding process are applicable due to the sole source nature of the procurement, justified by Advanced Security Technologies LLC's proprietary integration of certified components that no other vendor offers as a complete, interoperable solution. The trailer includes dedicated storage compartments, a locking mechanism, retractable wheels, and a rear Extendbob compartment for additional accessories. Corrosion protection is provided via powder coating and zinc-coated fasteners, with no additional preservation methods specified. Despite the absence of formal Section K representations, Section J attachments, or detailed inspection criteria, acceptance is tied to compliance with the referenced safety standards and delivery of the fully configured system. The project manager, Salome Angrand, serves as the primary point of contact, overseeing procurement and contract administration, while no COR, COTR, or PC
