About this file

This is a Direct Award Determination form from the West Virginia Department of Education for software services from TADERA. The direct award is for the provision of comprehensive lease management software to assist public agencies in managing property and lease agreements while ensuring compliance with Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 87 and 96. The solicitation closes on March 11, 2025, with delivery/performance required by May 1st, 2025. The initial term runs through the 5th anniversary date, with optional renewal years 6-9 extending through April 30, 2030.

The annual fee for the software service is $53,731.00, which includes an 80-hour annual support cap. The software package includes PublicIQ Business & Revenue Manager, GASB Module, and SaaS support and hosting services. The justification for direct award notes that TADERA is the current software solution implemented in 2021, and replacing it would require substantial retraining and implementation costs. The agency determined that no other source would be able to replace the existing vendor without detrimental effects on the spending unit, particularly given the extensive training and implementation already completed with the current system.

2. Justification which explains why the direct award is in the best interest of the state:

The current software solution utilized by all county boards of education was initially implemented in 2021. The implementation process and subsequent training demanded a substantial investment of time and effort. Over the course of nearly a year, weekly meetings were held to ensure the system was fully prepared for deployment across the counties. , Following deployment, extensive training was conducted to familiarize users with the various functionalities of the software. If the State were required to,undertake this process again, it would necessitate repeating these comprehensive steps.

3. Basis for Direct Award: Please select one of the following and provide details and documentation sufficient to confirm the basis.

D Competition is not available from any other source: (If this item is selected answer the question below)

A. The agency attempted to identify other sources by:

0 No other source would be willing or able to replace the existing source without a detrimental effect on the spending unit (Please describe the detrimental effect in detail):

Replacing the current software solution would present numerous challenges and significant additional costs.

Key challenges for the spending unit would include the need for comprehensive retraining of all employees on the new system, as well as the considerable time required to ensure a successful and fully operational implementation. These factors could lead to disruptions in workflow and increased resource allocation during the transition period.

D Solicitation is categorized as impossible to bid in Section 9 of the Purchasing Handbook and is being posted to determine if competition is available.
