This is a Solicitation Waiver Justification and Request form from the State of Nevada Department of Administration Purchasing Division, involving the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) and the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA). The document seeks to establish a contract for AAMVA's services as a central clearinghouse for motor vehicle data queries and reports across U.S. and Canadian jurisdictions, with a contract term from July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2029. The services include electronic verification systems for social security numbers, lawful status, passports, traffic convictions, driver registries, commercial license tracking, and vehicle title information verification.

The total estimated value of the service contract is $2,367,394.00 for the four-year period, funded 100% by Highway Funds. The waiver is for a sole or single source procurement, justified by AAMVA's unique position as the national organization providing a centralized electronic interface for motor vehicle data across jurisdictions. The Nevada DMV argues that competitive bidding is impractical, as AAMVA is the only organization offering this comprehensive clearinghouse service, and building an equivalent system would be complex, expensive, and time-consuming. Previous contracts with AAMVA date back to 2009, with the most recent contract valued at $1,086,168.78 and ending in June 2025.
