AI overview

Pierce County, through its Procurement and Contract Services department, is proceeding with a directly negotiated purchase for Victaulic Wearable Parts under a sole source procurement exemption. This public notice is issued pursuant to Chapter 2.106 of the Pierce County Code, which authorizes the County to purchase property or services by direct negotiation when the purchase is clearly and legitimately limited to a single source of supply. The intended vendor is Victaulic, and the County is not accepting competitive proposals or bids. Instead, any entity that believes it can meet the requirements must submit a capability statement before the stated deadline.

The procurement exemption covers the acquisition of Victaulic branded wearable parts, which are replacement components for pipe coupling systems used in various infrastructure applications. The specific scope, justification, and minimum requirements are detailed in the attached justification document. The County has determined that these parts are proprietary to Victaulic and that no suitable substitutes exist without compromising system integrity or warranty conditions. The contract term and cost information are not publicly disclosed in this notice, but the exemption is intended to ensure compatibility with existing Victaulic systems.

Key dates for this procurement include a Q&A deadline of August 4, 2026, at 23:00:00 UTC, and a capability statement submission deadline of August 11, 2026, at 23:00:00 UTC. All capability statements must be submitted through the Pierce County procurement portal. The procurement contact is Andrew Robson, Contract and Monitoring Manager, who can be reached at andrew.robson@piercecountywa.gov or (253) 798-7456. The County will evaluate capability statements to determine if any alternative source can fulfill the need, but no formal evaluation criteria have been published beyond the minimum requirements in the justification document.
