TSI Nexus DVR Hard Drives

Intercity Transit in Washington has issued a Notice of Intent to sole source the procurement of hard drives from Transit Solution, LLC (TSI) under solicitation number 2621, posted on February 24, 2026, with responses due by March 12, 2026. This procurement aims to upgrade the storage capacity and increase the stock of spare hard drives for the agency’s existing vehicle security camera system, which relies on TSI’s proprietary Nexus DVR hardware and Nexview software platforms. The sole-source approach is justified by system compatibility needs, proven performance of TSI’s solution, and the agency’s existing investment in their hardware-software ecosystem, with the agency inviting alternative submissions only if they can demonstrate an equivalent and fully compatible capability. The acquisition is conducted without formal competitive evaluation criteria, standard FAR contract clauses, or detailed pricing data, reflecting its early-stage, non-competitive procurement status. Offerors are invited to submit letters of interest electronically to the agency’s contact, Jeff Peterson, to validate whether alternatives exist that provide the same hardware compatibility, warranty coverage, and software integration as TSI’s products. The contract’s place of performance and acceptance is Thurston, Washington, with inspection responsibility resting with Intercity Transit. No specialized packaging, bar-coding, or formal invoicing processes are specified. The agency reserves the right to award directly to TSI if no equivalent offers are identified. Overall, this procurement focuses tightly on maintaining operational continuity within the existing TSI-managed security camera infrastructure through a streamlined sole-source process.
