The South Carolina Department of Corrections indicated that a new solicitation for this investigative software requirement will be published at a later date.

The Statement of Non-Award does not contain pricing information, set-asides, incumbent details, or funding amounts, as the procurement was unsuccessful and terminated prior to award.

The agency's decision to republish the solicitation suggests that revised requirements, specifications, or terms may be incorporated into the reissued procurement to attract qualified vendors in a subsequent round of bidding.
