About this opportunity
Albany State University is seeking information through an electronic Request for Information (eRFI) for an Inbound Parcel Tracking System, with the procurement specifically targeting Douglas County, Georgia. The eRFI is designed to gather comprehensive data from potential suppliers about capabilities for developing a system to track incoming parcels on campus. This information-gathering process is not a competitive solicitation and does not constitute a formal bidding opportunity, but rather serves as a preliminary market research tool. The current eRFI was posted on March 10, 2025, with responses due by March 17, 2025. Suppliers are strongly encouraged to respond, as this provides an opportunity to showcase their technological solutions and potentially influence future competitive solicitations. The primary objective is to help the university determine the most suitable technological solution for parcel tracking, with potential future development into a formal procurement process.
The eRFI does not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations, maintaining an open invitation to interested suppliers. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are mentioned in the documentation, and there are no specific details about existing infrastructure that would require integration. While the document does not outline a specific budget range or potential award value, it suggests that the ultimate goal is to identify a comprehensive parcel tracking system for Albany State University. The procurement approach emphasizes flexibility, with suppliers understanding that participation in the eRFI does not guarantee future contract award. The State Entity reserves the right to use the gathered information at its discretion in developing potential future competitive solicitations, making this an exploratory phase of potential technology procurement.
Opportunity text
Purpose of the eRFI This electronic Request for Information (eRFI) is being issued to solicit information from interested suppliers with respect to a Inbound Parcel Tracking System for the Albany State University (hereinafter, the State Entity) as further described in this eRFI. The State Entity will use the information generated by this eRFI in conjunction with other information available to the State Entity to determine the solution that it is in the best interests of the State Entity to fulfill this need. Overview of the eRFI Process The objective of the eRFI is to gather information to assist the State Entity in its consideration of available resources/methods to fulfill the need/goal identified above. The eRFI method is not a competitive solicitation method and, as a result, does not satisfy the requirement for competitive bidding. The eRFI method is no more than an information gathering tool and such information gathered may or may not be used by the State Entity to develop a competitive solicitation. Suppliers are not required to respond to an eRFI and a supplier¿s failure to respond to an eRFI will not prohibit the supplier¿s participation in any competitive solicitation that may result from the eRFI. However, suppliers are strongly encouraged to respond to eRFIs as this is a great way to ensure the State Entity is aware of the suppliers¿ available goods and services.
