Exhibit B - Software Licensing and Support

This document is a Software Licensing and Support exhibit for a state and local contract opportunity. The exhibit outlines the licensing requirements and support services for software products that will be utilized across the contracting agency or consortium. The specification details the scope of software licenses needed, including the quantity of licenses, types of software products, and the duration of the licensing agreement. Support services encompass technical assistance, software updates, maintenance, and vendor-provided customer service during the contract term. The contract term includes specifications for initial licensing periods and potential renewal options that extend the agreement beyond the initial term, with clear delineation of obligations during each contract phase.

The pricing structure within the exhibit establishes cost terms for software licenses, including per-unit licensing costs, volume discounts where applicable, and annual support and maintenance fees. The document may identify any incumbent vendors currently providing these services, along with details regarding the current software environment and existing systems that must integrate with new licensing solutions. Funding requirements and sources are specified to ensure budget alignment and appropriation of resources for software acquisition and ongoing support. The exhibit may also address specific technical requirements, licensing model preferences (such as perpetual licenses versus subscription-based models), and any conditions related to software deployment, usage rights, and compliance obligations that bidders must satisfy to meet the contracting entity's operational needs.
