About this file
This is a Notice of Intent to Make a Proprietary Sole Source Purchase issued by the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles. The purchase involves access to the National Motor Vehicle Title Information System (NMVTIS) from the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA). The procurement is being conducted under Section 2155.067 of the Texas Government Code and DIR's Software Maintenance Exemption and Publication - Cooperative Contract Exemption. Potential bidders who believe equivalent services are available from other sources must submit written objections by August 19, 2026, at 9:00 AM CT. The purchase order will be valid through August 31, 2027. Only bids conforming exactly to the specified brand name, make, and model will be considered for award.
The annual contract value is up to $448,234.00. AAMVA is identified as the sole intended source because its NMVTIS subscription access is necessary to fulfill federally mandated vehicle title verification and reporting requirements. The procurement officer is Nhi Ge, CTCM, CTCD, located at 4000 Jackson Ave., Austin, TX 78701, and can be reached at Nhi.Ge@txdmv.gov. This sole source justification indicates that no competitive alternatives exist for meeting the state's federal compliance obligations in vehicle title administration.
