Commodity or Service Required (commodity class and group, manufacturer, model, and description, as appropriate): 81111511 - System or Application Programming Management Service.

Requestor (division, bureau, office, individual, as appropriate): Jerry Scott, Seaport Office

Performance and/or Design Requirements (intended use, function or application, compatibility etc.

requirements; reference to policy, rule, statute or other act of the Legislature, etc., as appropriate):

SeaCIP is used to review projects in coordination with the Department of Economic Opportunity, allocate dollars and manage all project management functionality required to implement and deliver all planned projects at the 16 ports in the State of Florida. All project management and scheduling activities for the projects are managed through the system including grant agreement development, milestone tracking, invoicing, and auditing. This grant application program is obsolete and lacks numerous features including an intuitive interface, application tracking, and sensible application-project connections. Replacing SeaCIP with SeaHub is expected to reduce maintenance costs, increase productivity, save time, and reduce project and program risks. B2Gnow/BlackCat (formerly Panther International, Inc.) who originally developed SeaCIP, will re-develop SeaCIP into SeaHUB by achieving the following outcomes attached.

Intended source (vendor, contractor): AskReply, Inc. dba B2Gnow.

Price: $153,784.47

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): SeaCIP is a 20-year-old/obsolete grant application management system that receives considerable maintenance, is non-intuitive, and lacks grant management functions. B2Gnow is uniquely qualified to re-develop SeaCIP into SeaHUB, as they originally developed the existing Seaport grant application system.
