Contract C7746C

The Florida Department of Environmental Protection awarded contract C7746C to YSI for the provision of cellular communication and data management services. The contract, effective July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027, carries a total contract value of $4,763.28. The award comprises two primary service components: twelve-month cellular communication subscriptions through Verizon for six units at $674.00 per unit ($4,044.00 total), and a cloud-based data hosting and visualization platform called HydroSphere for six units at $119.88 per unit ($719.28 total).

The HydroSphere platform subscription includes alarms, data exports, public website access, and scalable user role management capabilities. YSI provides no-cost repair services for SIM cards and cellular connections installed into modems when cellular service is purchased through YSI. Both service line items represent renewal of services previously provided under purchase order C5CBF7 and are structured to allow advance payment upon DEP receipt of an itemized invoice detailing service dates, quantities, and unit costs. The contract authorizes partial payments and complies with Florida Statute 215.422(15) provisions governing advance payments for essential state agency operations.
