SOLICITATION ADDENDUM THREE.docx

This is a Solicitation Addendum Three establishing a revised schedule of events for the Nebraska State Purchasing Bureau's Request for Proposal Number 122777 O5 for Network Manager Services supporting the State's online information Portal. The solicitation seeks a vendor to implement, operate, and expand the state's centralized electronic system for providing public records and government services online, with deliverables including portal website and application development and maintenance, 24/7 hosting services, secure payment processing, user and partner support, and technical infrastructure management. Electronic proposal submissions are due October 23, 2025, at 2:00 PM Central Time via ShareFile, with the opening conducted online through Webex. The evaluation period runs from October 24 through November 21, 2025, with vendor demonstrations scheduled for December 1-5, 2025, if required. The State intends to post its Notice of Intent to Award on December 11, 2025, with contract finalization occurring between December 12, 2025, and March 13, 2026. Contract award is scheduled for March 20, 2026, with a 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 structure is based on a revenue-sharing model wherein the Network Manager receives 80 percent of margin service fees with the Nebraska State Records Board receiving 20 percent, supplemented by fixed hourly rates for time and materials projects that may increase up to 5 percent upon renewal. Potential revenue streams include transaction fees from government services such as driver's license records, corporate filings, vehicle registrations, and court records, with historical data indicating multiple millions of dollars in potential transaction volumes. The current subscription fee is set at $100.00, and the portal is intended to be self-funded through transaction and subscription services without increasing taxpayer burden. The solicitation does not identify a specific incumbent vendor, and bidders are responsible for monitoring the State Purchasing Bureau website for all addenda or amendments, with no exceptions granted for technology issues affecting submission timeliness.
