Annual ESRI ArcGIS Software License and Maintenance

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) is seeking to procure an annual ESRI ArcGIS Software License and Maintenance through a single-source procurement process. This opportunity is specific to Leon County and involves the renewal of critical Geographic Information System (GIS) software licenses for enterprise-wide applications. The procurement targets the annual maintenance of proprietary licensed systems, specifically the ArcGIS software used across FDOT's district offices and departmental applications. Vendors must submit their information by 11:00 a.m. (EST) on May 22, 2025, to the specified email address. The procurement follows section 287.057(3)(c) of Florida Statutes, which requires public posting of intended single-source purchases, and invites prospective vendors to demonstrate their capability to supply the described services.

The procurement appears to be exclusively targeted to Environmental Systems Research Institute, Inc. (ESRI) as the sole provider of this specialized software, with no explicit set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises. The estimated contract value is $616,500.00 for a one-year term, covering the maintenance of critical GIS software that the department considers essential for hosting statewide GIS services and public use. FDOT emphasizes that failure to maintain this software would result in the disruption of GIS services and applications. The software is noted as the exclusive property of ESRI, which effectively limits competitive bidding. The procurement process allows for review of vendor information, with FDOT reserving the right to confirm the single-source nature of the procurement after examining any received vendor submissions. The contract will be posted on the Vendor Information Portal in accordance with Florida Statutes section 120.57(3).
