1. Authority for a Sole-Source Contract: DAS Delegation Agreement No. 1095-20

2. Estimated Total Value of Contract: $1,000,000.00

3. Subject of Contract: Software procured from and supported by Right Click Solutions, Inc., DBA RideAmigos Corp. (hereinafter, “RideAmigos”)

4. Background:

In 2019, ODOT and RideAmigos entered into contract #B36468, with a maximum expiration date of 12/31/2025. Under the contract, ODOT acquired customized web-based ride match software, support and services, that currently equips ODOT and its Transportation Options Program (“TO Program”) partners with the capacity to promote and connect the public to the various transportation options across Oregon to meet the needs of Oregon travelers; including carpooling, vanpooling, biking, walking and transit.

ODOT intends to enter into a new contract with RideAmigos to replace the current contract.

The new contract will include continued software licenses, maintenance and support, in addition to the following IT Professional Services:

• Consultation and Professional Services

• Software Programming

5. Findings of Fact Pursuant to OAR 125-247-0275(2):

In accordance with OAR 125-247-0275, ODOT supports this Sole-Source Determination with the following written findings of fact that the Supplies and Services are available from only one source:

a. OAR 125-247-0275(2)(a): Compatibility ODOT has unique and customized integrations with the RideAmigos software that have been designed specifically to meet the business needs of ODOT’s TO Program. These unique customizations allow the TO Program to operate efficiently, without needing to invest in new software development, training and program resources.

b. OAR 125-247-0275(2)(b): Exchange of Software or Data RideAmigos’ software has an associated trademark asset registered by the State of Oregon called “Get There Connect” (Registry Number S3135), along with related internet-based tools, that are used by individuals and organizations.

Transitioning to an alternative software system could jeopardize the current infrastructure of the TO Program. Additionally, RideAmigos maintains and has access to ODOT data in their software system that would make a transition to a different software system difficult and costly.

c. Pursuant to OAR 125-247-0275(2)(d): Other findings

i. Cost Efficiency/Cost of Conversion: ODOT estimates that the cost to procure and implement a new carpool software system would be upwards of $600,000, over and above the cost renewing the existing contract, and would cause a significant interruption in services to the TO Program partners and the public. This estimate includes the cost of the design build and configuration phase of a new software vendor contract;

as well as non-contract costs, including consultant labor hours, training and materials and marketing required in order to implement a new system.

ii. Risk Mitigation: Continuity with a proven vendor reduces risks associated with transitioning to a new provider. This software system supports over 20,000 individual users. If ODOT is required to procure a new software system, the internal estimated loss of the current user base would put ODOT’s TO Program and its partners (other government agencies and nonprofit organizations operating TO programs) at direct risk of failing to implement their program strategies effectively and exposes the Agency to a large pecuniary loss as identified above.

iii. Unique Design: RideAmigos holds proprietary ownership of the software system in use by ODOT, and does not allow other entities to provide maintenance, support, and licensing for their systems. ODOT has unique and customized integrations with the RideAmigos software that have been designed specifically to meet the business needs of ODOT’s TO Program.

6. Market Research Finding Pursuant to OAR 125-247-0275(3):

As required by OAR 125-0247(3), market research was conducted, as shown in Attachment A and incorporated into this this Sole Source Determination by reference. Based on this market research, it is ODOT’s finding that RideAmigos software, related software components, and professional services associated with them are available from only one source.
