Intent to Award.docx

This is an Intent to Award document issued by the State of Nebraska, through the State Purchasing Bureau and Nebraska State Records Board, announcing the award of Solicitation Number 122777 O5 for Network Manager Services. The solicitation sought comprehensive infrastructure and services to implement, operate, and expand the State's online information Portal, a centralized electronic system providing public records and government services. The Request for Proposal included deliverables such as developing and maintaining portal websites and applications, providing 24/7 hosting services, secure payment processing, user and partner support, and technical infrastructure management. Proposals were due by October 23, 2025, at 2:00 PM Central Time, with the Intent to Award originally expected on December 11, 2025, and subsequently posted on January 9, 2026. The contract term is five years with an option to renew for an additional two years, with a projected start date of April 1, 2026.

The State of Nebraska intends to award the contract to Nebraska Interactive, LLC dba Tyler Technologies. The compensation structure is based on a revenue-sharing model where the Network Manager will receive 80% of margin service fees with the Nebraska State Records Board receiving 20%, supplemented by hourly rates for time and materials projects with rates fixed for the initial contract term and potential increases of up to 5% upon renewal. Potential revenue streams include transaction fees for various government services such as driver's license records, corporate filings, vehicle registrations, and court records, with historical revenue data indicating multiple millions of dollars in potential transaction volumes. The current subscription fee is set at $100.00, with the expectation that the portal will be self-funded through transaction and subscription services without increasing taxpayer burden. Integration with existing state systems and payment processors is required.
