About this file

The document is a request for a one-time exemption from competition submitted by the Idaho STEM Action Center to the Idaho Division of Purchasing (DOP). The agency is seeking a 1-year exemption to continue their current webmaster services contract, as their existing contract is set to expire on September 30, 2024, and they did not receive any applicants in their previous attempts to solicit these services through an RFP process. The agency cites the need for a seamless transition and the desire to reevaluate the scope of work and potentially separate the webmaster services from other related services, such as graphic design and public relations.

The agency is requesting $45,000 for the 1-year exemption period. DOP is offering suppliers the opportunity to review this requested exemption and provide relevant information, although the final decision remains at the discretion of the DOP Administrator. Suppliers are invited to submit information that may support or contradict the agency's claim that competition would be impractical, unreasonable, or disadvantageous to the State under the current circumstances.

1 year exemption to continue webmaster services with current contractor

We are requesting a 1 year exemption from solicitation for Webmaster services. Our current ITB (Contract # CPO20220976) is no longer up for renewal as of Sept. 30, 2024 and we do not want a break in service. We tried to RFP for these services and two other of our RFP's (Graphic Design and PR), but we did not get any applicants. We would like to take the year to redo the SOW and determine if we need to separate the services (graphic design, PR, and website) or what the best course of action would be. We also would like to wait until we have a full-time Executive Director on board to help determine the best course of action.
