Contracting officer information and contact details
The City of Port St. Lucie, through its Public Works agency, is soliciting bids for citywide pressure cleaning services under solicitation number 20260170. The objective is to maintain city assets and infrastructure, including sidewalks, curb and gutter systems, concrete traffic railings, bus shelters, and concrete traffic separators. A key requirement includes the pressure cleaning and sealing of stamped concrete traffic separators to ensure proper preservation. The selected vendor must provide all labor, materials, tools, and equipment, including their own water source, and must ensure all cleaning chemicals are non-toxic, biodegradable, and EPA-compliant. All debris and wastewater must be removed from sites daily, and night operations must adhere to city noise ordinances.
The contract is structured with an initial two-year term and four optional one-year renewals. Awards will be based on best value, considering factors such as experience, technical adherence, operational and financial capacity, and cost, though the lowest price is not the sole determining factor. Local businesses may receive a five percent preference in their total score. Submissions must be made electronically via the OpenGov platform by November 20, 2026, and must include mandatory documentation such as a W-9, certificate of insurance, professional licenses, and a bid bond. Invoicing is conducted monthly, with payments processed according to Florida's Prompt Payment Act.
The City of Port St. Lucie is pursuing a sole source procurement process to acquire specialized services and software.

Additionally, the Police Department is seeking a sole source justification for the procurement of CaseGuard Studio Ultimate Suite, an AI-powered redaction software. This software is identified as proprietary and uniquely compatible with the Axon ecosystem, with an estimated annual expenditure of 18,192.00 dollars.
These procurement actions are intended to enhance transparency and provide the public and potential suppliers an opportunity to identify themselves or submit statements of capability to determine if a competitive process is warranted. The redaction software procurement is managed by the Police Department, with Emily Burgos serving as the primary Police Purchasing Project Manager and India Barr as the Procurement Contracting Officer. Interested parties were given a response deadline of October 27, 2026, to provide information regarding their ability to provide similar products or services.
The City of Port St. Lucie, through its Facilities Maintenance agency, is pursuing a non-competitive sole source award for specialized facility upgrades.

This specific engagement involves the modernization of two elevators within the Police Department building with an estimated expenditure of 479,867.65 dollars, justified by the vendor's status as the original manufacturer to ensure equipment compatibility and service continuity.
The procurement process for these awards is designed to enhance transparency and allow potential suppliers to submit statements of capability to determine if a competitive bidding process is warranted. For the elevator modernization project, the response deadline was set for October 27, 2026. Primary coordination for these efforts is managed by Construction Project Director Roger Jacob and Procurement Contracting Officer India Barr.

Measuring, Dispensing, and Other Pumping Equipment Manufacturing
The City of Port St. Lucie Police Department has issued a sole-source maintenance agreement to Action Target Inc. for the ongoing service and upkeep of its proprietary Electric Target System installed at the Training Facility Range in Florida. This contract is justified under FAR 6.302-1 due to the unique, proprietary nature of the equipment, which includes exclusive software, diagnostic tools, calibrated components, and factory-trained technicians that are not available from any other source. Action Target, as the original manufacturer and installer, is the only entity capable of properly maintaining the system without voiding warranties or creating unacceptable safety and operational risks. The contract spans one year and includes four scheduled one-day service visits and eight monthly inspections, with additional optional services such as hazardous waste disposal and DCU filter replacements priced separately. The estimated total contract value ranges between $48,766.30 and $78,932.60, depending on the frequency of optional services, but the core annual cost is fixed at $18,600 for scheduled maintenance.
Performance is strictly governed by Action Target’s proprietary procedures and standards, with no reliance on standard federal or military specifications. All maintenance must be performed on-site using OEM-specific tools and software, and only original parts supplied by Action Target are permitted—any non-OEM components result in immediate warranty voidance and pose ballistic safety hazards. Preservation tasks include zinc coating on actuators, lubrication of bushings and C-rods, and torqueing motor bolts to 33 ft-lbs, while inspections require functional cycling of targets, verification of track tension (40–60 lbs), sensor accuracy, and environmental system checks including air pressure set points and lead filtration. Hazardous waste from lead-contaminated filters must be handled in accordance with EPA and DOT regulations, though disposal is the government’s responsibility. The contract prohibits solicitation of Action Target personnel for 12 months after contract performance, excludes site modifications and labor premium costs, and requires adequate access—doors must be at least 48 inches wide. Payment terms are net 30 days from invoice receipt, invoicing is conducted commercially, and no electronic government invoicing systems are used. The agreement is awarded on a trade-off basis prioritizing technical capability, safety, and long-term lifecycle cost reduction over low-price considerations, and renewal is contingent on annual reprocurement with inflation-based adjustments.
