This solicitation addendum five revises the schedule of events for Request for Proposal Number 122777 O5, issued by the State of Nebraska through the State Purchasing Bureau and Nebraska State Records Board for Network Manager Services to support the state's online information Portal. The solicitation seeks comprehensive infrastructure and services to implement, operate, and expand the centralized electronic system providing public records and government services online, with key deliverables including portal website and application development and maintenance, 24/7 hosting services, secure payment processing, user and partner support, and technical infrastructure management. The original proposal response deadline was October 23, 2025, at 2:00 PM Central Time. The revised schedule establishes vendor demonstrations for December 1–5, 2025, and December 15–19, 2025, with notification of intent to award posted on December 11, 2025. The contract finalization period spans December 12, 2025, through March 13, 2026, with contract award scheduled for March 20, 2026, and vendor start date of April 1, 2026. The contract term is five years with an option to renew for an additional two years.

The compensation model is structured as a revenue-sharing arrangement where the successful Network Manager will receive 80% of margin service fees, with the Nebraska State Records Board receiving 20%. Hourly rates for time and materials projects are fixed for the initial contract term with potential increases of up to 5% upon renewal. The portal currently charges a $100.00 subscription fee and is projected to be self-funded through transaction and subscription services without increasing taxpayer burden. Potential revenue streams include transaction fees from driver's license records, corporate filings, vehicle registrations, and court records, with historical data indicating multiple millions of dollars in potential transaction volumes. Integration with existing state systems and payment processors will be required, and the successful vendor must demonstrate capabilities in application and website services, marketing and promotion, and compliance with state technical standards.
