About this file
This is a Notice of Proposed Sole Source Purchase issued by the University of Southern Mississippi (USM) for InnovaSea transponders and receivers. The procurement seeks to establish a sole source agreement with InnovaSea as the exclusive supplier for the required commodity. The RFx number is 3140004520, and the procurement is published on the Mississippi Department of Finance and Administration contract bid search portal. Comments and objections to the sole source designation will be accepted until 2:00 p.m. Central Time on April 2, 2026. The notice was published on March 15, 2026, and March 22, 2026.
Any person or entity objecting to the sole source procurement must submit a written notice to Millissa Weaver at the University of Southern Mississippi, Ocean Springs, Mississippi, with the subject line "Sole Source Objection USM SSP 26_019." The objection must include a detailed explanation of why the commodity is not a sole source procurement and any supporting documentation. If USM determines after review that the commodity can be provided by another source, the procurement will be withdrawn and converted to a competitive bid or selection process. If USM maintains that only one source exists for the commodity, the matter will be appealed to the Public Procurement Review Board, with USM bearing the burden of proof that InnovaSea is the sole provider.
