This document is an Awarded Contract establishing an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) vehicle for the State of Arkansas through the Department of Arkansas Highway and Transportation Department (AHTD). The contract involves the National Cooperative Purchasing Alliance (NCPA), which facilitates cooperative purchasing agreements among state and local government entities. The awarded contractor is Southland Holdings, LLC, a company providing specialized services and solutions to government agencies.

The contract covers detention and correctional facility services, including equipment, supplies, and related support services utilized in correctional operations. Pricing is established through a tiered rate structure with specific unit costs for various service categories and line items. The contract includes multiple option periods for renewal, allowing for extended engagement contingent upon performance and budgetary considerations. Pricing terms incorporate competitive rates negotiated through the cooperative purchasing process, with set-asides potentially available for small and minority-owned businesses as applicable under state and federal guidelines. The contract structure allows Arkansas and other authorized NCPA member entities to make purchases against the established pricing and terms, with funding derived from individual agency budgets and appropriations. The agreement provides flexibility through the IDIQ mechanism, enabling agencies to order services and supplies as needed throughout the contract period without requiring separate competitive procurements for each transaction.
