The South Carolina Department of Natural Resources (SC DNR) is seeking bids for Adobe software licenses through solicitation #5400027933, targeting authorized Adobe Platinum or Gold Sellers/Resellers designated as Adobe Gov Specialized. The procurement encompasses a comprehensive suite of Adobe software licenses, including 272 Acrobat Pro Enterprise, 154 Acrobat Standard Enterprise, 4 Adobe Stock, 1 Adobe Express, 53 All Apps, 3 Premier Pro, 4 Illustrator, 1 Lightroom, and 2 Photoshop licenses, with potential for additional quantities. The licenses will be integrated into DNR's existing Adobe Licensing Portal under the Adobe Large Government Agency (LGA) purchasing plan with VIP #1BF03A6E670C3C22AB5A. Bid responses are due by February 25, 2025, at 10:00 AM EST, with vendor questions accepted until February 11, 2025, at 12:00 PM EST. The contract term is defined from March 12, 2025, through March 11, 2026, with all new licenses pro-rated to co-term with the annual subscription anniversary date of March 12, 2025. Evaluation will focus on selecting the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with unit prices taking precedence over extended prices. The solicitation appears to be open to all qualified vendors, with potential preference given to South Carolina resident vendors and US/SC end-product providers. No specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly mentioned in the available documentation. The scope of procurement specifically excludes software installation, implementation, training, and consulting services, focusing solely on software licensing. While no incumbent vendors are identified, the procurement leverages an existing Adobe Licensing Portal, suggesting continuity in the agency's software infrastructure. The solicitation indicates that quantities of licenses may be adjusted, implying flexibility in the total contract value. Though precise budget ranges are not specified, the breadth of license types suggests a potentially significant procurement value for Adobe software across multiple user categories within the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources.
