About this file

This Amendment 3 document modifies the Request for Proposal (RFP) solicitation 5400029904 issued by the State of South Carolina's State Fiscal Accountability Authority (SFAA) Division of Procurement Services for AI-Powered Procurement Card Auditing services. The solicitation seeks an AI-powered continuous monitoring platform to audit procurement card transactions across South Carolina state agencies and institutions of higher education, with the system required to identify anomalous and non-compliant spending patterns in near real-time across approximately 45,000 monthly transactions from 8,000 cardholders across 118 accounts. Amendment 3 revises the proposal submission deadline from 8/1/2026 to 8/3/2026 at 11:00 AM EST, while maintaining the pre-proposal conference on 7/10/2026 at 10:00 AM EST via web conference and the questions deadline of 7/14/2026 at 8:00 AM EST. The initial contract term is structured as a pilot program covering four procurement card cycles with approximately 2,000 cardholders at three state entities, with potential renewal for two additional three-year options for a maximum contract length of six years and four months. Award notification is scheduled for 8/20/2026.

Offerors must be registered as South Carolina state vendors and submit offers online through www.procurement.sc.gov. The solicitation requires detailed cost proposals to be evaluated on value, reasonableness, and affordability, with evaluation occurring in two phases: Phase I assesses the proposed approach (60 points) and experience and past performance (20 points), while Phase II evaluates value (20 points) only for offerors with a mathematical chance of highest ranking. Offerors must obtain insurance coverage including general liability, cyber liability, and professional errors and omissions insurance with limits of $5 million per occurrence and $10 million aggregate, and must submit a completed Service Provider Security Assessment Questionnaire. Award will be made to one responsive and responsible offeror whose offer is deemed most advantageous to the State.
