Justification for single source acquisition (what is necessary and unique about the product, service or source; steps taken to confirm unavailability of competition, as appropriate):

ESRI is the inventor, developer, and sole manufacturer of the ArcGIS software platform. ESRI maintains exclusive proprietary rights to the source code and to the maintenance, support, and upgrade services associated with ArcGIS Pro, ArcGIS Enterprise, ArcGIS Portal, and ArcGIS

Online.

Only ESRI is authorized to provide software maintenance, version upgrades, technical support, and training for these products. ESRI does not authorize resellers or third party vendors to deliver maintenance or support services for its software suite. Internal review confirmed that no alternative vendors or distributors are able to provide these required services.

ArcGIS platform, ESRI is the only source available to provide the necessary maintenance and support for the department’s existing ESRI licensed software environment.
