USM SSP 27_009 Notice of Proposed Sole Source Purchase of Ambient H35 Dispenser

The University of Southern Mississippi is issuing a sole‑source procurement notice for an “Ambient H35 Dispenser” that is uniquely compatible with PDC Machines’ SimpleFuel™ hydrogen refueling system. Because the dispenser’s hardware and software interfaces are proprietary, no alternative commercial product can be used without extensive redesign and recertification. The agency seeks information and potential vendor confirmation that the specified dispenser from PDC Machines will meet the university’s hydrogen‑fueling needs. • Sole‑source purchase of a 350‑bar hydrogen dispenser (H35) • Equipment must integrate directly with SimpleFuel control, pressure, and safety systems • No commercially available third‑party alternatives meet the required specifications • Procurement classified as a “Request for Information” (RFx 3150006984) • Submission window opens and closes on 2026‑09‑01 at 08:00 AM (UTC) • Primary contact: Amber Floyd, Buyer, (601) 266‑4855, [email protected]
