About this file
This is a Bid Tabulation Template and evaluation document issued by the State of Georgia's Department of Procurement Services (DPS) for solicitation 46600-DPS0000432 concerning D-Fend Solutions EnforceAir2 Bundles, with Kaycee Larson serving as the issuing officer. The document outlines the evaluation process for a Request for Quotes (RFQ) and provides a framework for assessing supplier responses across administrative review, technical evaluation, and cost analysis phases. Two suppliers submitted timely bids: Safeware Inc and Axon Enterprise Inc. Both suppliers passed administrative review, meeting mandatory requirements including timely submission through approved sourcing tools, mandatory requirement verification, completed cost submissions, non-collusion certification, and non-scrutinized company status. Both suppliers also passed the second phase of evaluation, which included verification of business registration with Georgia's Secretary of State's Office and determination of product equivalency.
The cost evaluation identified Safeware Inc as the top-ranked supplier with an estimated contract cost of $1,303,465.29. Prior to contract award notification, the selected supplier was required to complete final verification steps including confirmation of non-suspended or debarred status on both state and federal lists, eVerify requirement compliance, sales and use tax clearance with the Department of Revenue (required due to the award amount exceeding $100,000), and contract exception resolution. The document indicates that the Anti-Boycott of Israel Certification requirement was marked as not applicable (N/A) for this procurement. The evaluation template reflects Georgia's procurement regulations, including provisions for price match options for Georgia-based small businesses, Georgia Enterprises for Products and Services (GEPS) price preferences of eight percent, and reciprocal preference considerations.

*Unless SPD grants a written exception, all state entities are required to conduct competitive sealed bidding through approved sourcing tools such as Team Georgia Marketplace™ and eSource/Jaggaer. These systems will not allow a supplier to submit a bid/proposal once the solicitation closing date/time has passed.
**By submitting a response via Team Georgia Marketplace™ or eSource/Jaggaer, suppliers automatically agree to the certificate of non-collusion and must also certify that they are not a scrutinized company. If conducting through another sourcing tool with SPD approval, the issuing officer may use form SPD-SP012 Certificate of Non-Collusion to obtain the certification and SPD-SP042 Supplier General Information Worksheet.
