Sole Source for Bobcat Holdings for OEM Parts to Maintain Manufacturer Warranty Coverage

The City of Fort Myers is issuing a sole‑source notice for the procurement of OEM parts needed to maintain warranty coverage on municipal equipment. While the city intends to award the contract exclusively to Bobcat Holdings, it invites any other qualified suppliers to submit product information, qualifications, or capability statements by the deadline for the city’s consideration of a competitive process. No formal bids or proposals are required; responses are purely informational. This notice remains active for 15 days, after which the purchasing agent must be notified by email. • Product: OEM parts for city‑owned equipment • Supplier identified: Bobcat Holdings (sole source) • Reason for sole source: Use of a different supplier would void the manufacturer’s warranty • Submission deadline for informational responses: September 7 2026 8:00 AM (ET) • Contact: Kirk Zimmerman, Senior Procurement Specialist (email & phone provided) • No formal solicitation, no pricing or contract value disclosed • City may still consider competitive offers before final award
