ITN 25-26-41 Addenda 1.pdf

This is an Addendum 1 document issued by the Florida Department of Revenue on April 10, 2026, for ITN 25-26-41, a Child Support State Disbursement Unit (SDU) procurement. The addendum amends the original ITN specifications by modifying Section 4.6.A in Volume I Administrative regarding the preparation of the Administrative Reply volume and replacing Exhibit 3 with an updated Procurement Library Documents list. The sealed reply submission deadline is June 15, 2026, at 3:00 PM ET, with public opening scheduled for the same date and time. The Department seeks a single vendor to provide comprehensive SDU services including receipt processing, exception processing, bank deposits, disbursement processing, banking services, reconciliation, and customer service for child support payment processing in Leon County. The contract structure includes a Transition Phase with reimbursement upon successful cutover and completion of milestones, followed by a 60-month Operations Phase with fixed-price transaction rates per disbursement invoiced monthly, plus optional renewal periods of up to five years. Contract award notification is expected by September 28, 2026, with contract formation anticipated between October 2-10, 2026.

Bidders must acknowledge receipt of this addendum and submit the acknowledgment form with their response, or risk disqualification. The incumbent contractor, Systems & Methods, Inc., currently holds the contract, which expires October 10, 2026. Vendors are required to post a performance bond equal to the annual contract amount and a $100,000 fidelity bond within ten days of contract execution. The current annual budget is $9,620,712; however, the new contract budget will be determined following Florida's General Appropriations Act for State Fiscal Year 2026-2027. The ITN includes no set-aside designations or restrictions limiting responses to particular organization types. Contract award is contingent upon Florida Legislature appropriation and federal matching funds availability, which may affect the final contract value and scope of services. Failure to meet performance measures will result in liquidated damages of $13,583 per day if cutover is delayed beyond four weeks.
