About this file
This document is a State Procurement Office (SPO) Form 101 Competition Impracticable Procurement Authorization for the Arizona Department of Administration (ADOA), specifically the State Procurement Office. The document involves multiple cloud computing technology suppliers, including Canahsoft Technology Corp, Kyndryl Inc., SHI International Corp, Cherry Road Technologies Inc., Hewlett-Packard Enterprise Co., AT&T Corp, and B2GNow.
The procurement is for the Cloud Computing Contracts (CLOUD) vehicle, which serves as Arizona's primary mechanism for procuring cloud storage, IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS software and related services. The current request is a modification to extend the existing contract through March 31, 2024, with an estimated cost of $325,000. The rationale for this competition impracticable authorization is due to staffing changes in the State Procurement Office, necessitating contract continuation while a new contract owner reviews, negotiates, and creates new participating addendums. The extension will allow time for Cooperative Members to get in front of their Governing Bodies for approval of new contracts.
