15759S/41079 DSB/lacris soti renewal-DS808/020426-brand only

This is a brand-only renewal procurement opportunity issued by the California Department of Small Business (DSB) in coordination with the Los Angeles County Regional Information System (LACRIS) for State of the Art (SOTI) services renewal under solicitation number RFB-IS-26200634-1. The request for bid was posted on February 17, 2026, with a proposal due date of February 27, 2026, providing a ten-day response window for interested vendors. While the specific goods or services, detailed deliverables, and key objectives are not fully accessible from the provided documentation, this appears to be a specialized procurement renewal focused on brand-specific solutions or services. The solicitation requires vendors to submit completed forms including Certification of Business Enterprise (CBE) certification documentation and mandatory purchasing declaration forms as baseline compliance requirements. Vendors must demonstrate their eligibility and business classification status through proper completion of all required certification and declaration documentation to be considered for award. Evaluation criteria and specific technical qualifications are referenced within the primary solicitation document, though these details were not retrievable from the available file submissions.

This procurement includes a Certification of Business Enterprise (CBE) set-aside component, indicating that California's disadvantaged business enterprise program requirements apply to this solicitation, and vendors must complete and submit the CBE form to establish their eligibility and proper categorization within the state's procurement framework. The brand-only designation suggests this renewal is specifically limited to the incumbent vendor or a particular branded solution provider, which may restrict competition to a single designated contractor or a limited class of approved vendors. No incumbent vendor information, current contract values, award amounts, or budget ranges were disclosed in the available documentation. Interested vendors should carefully review the complete SOLICITATION RFB-IS-26200634-1.pdf document to identify all technical specifications, pricing requirements, and integration requirements with existing LACRIS infrastructure. Prospective bidders must submit proposals by February 27, 2026, and should allow adequate time to complete all required CBE certifications and purchasing declaration forms prior to the deadline.
