Intent to Single Source for Boiler Grate and Furnace Parts
What this bid is
The City of Tampa intends to buy combustion grate and associated parts for boilers at its McKay Bay Waste to Energy facility in Tampa, Florida, directly from one vendor, Kanadevia Inova Matrix Services US LLC, without an open competitive bid. The notice says four proprietary boiler systems built for the plant in 1999-2000 are still running and that buying from the same supplier is meant to cut maintenance and staff training costs.
This is a notice of intent to single source, so the city is asking for responses that show whether other suppliers could meet the need. The notice lists the buyer as the Solid Waste and Environmental Program Management group under the Business Operations Supervisor, Daria Ritter, at daria.ritter@tampagov.net or (813) 484-0464. The city decides how to proceed.
Responses are due 17 November 2026 at 3:00 PM EST through the OpenGov portal at https://procurement.opengov.com/portal/cityoftampa/projects/325612. A free vendor account is required to upload a response there.
