DABICO SYSTEMS - DP

Aviation and Seaport Committee · 2026-07-13 · resolution

Miami-Dade Aviation Department (MDAD) is seeking to award Contract No. SS-10569 for Dabico PCA and 400Hz Systems, Parts and Replacement to Dabico Airport Solutions, Inc. The proposed contract is a non-competitive designated purchase for an initial five-year term with one, five-year option to renew, totaling $26,122,966.00. This contract is necessary because Dabico is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and sole provider for maintenance, repair, parts, and replacements for the proprietary Dabico systems installed at Miami International Airport (MIA). The systems are crucial for cooling parked aircraft and powering gates, reducing environmental impact and operational costs. Competition is not practicable due to the proprietary nature of the equipment. The Aviation and Seaport Committee forwarded this item to the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) with a favorable recommendation on 7/13/2026. The BCC is scheduled to consider this on 9/1/2026.
