BMC TRACK-IT SOFTWARE APPLICATION

The South Carolina Department of Probation, Parole and Pardon Services is procuring BMC Track-IT software application licenses and support through a Request for Quote (RFQ) solicitation. The procurement covers twelve line items of application software, including a Track-IT Starter Package license with support, 19 Named Technician licenses, three Concurrent Technician licenses, and client management licenses with comprehensive tracking capabilities. Specifically, the software will provide 800 units of inventory tracking and 850 units of remote tracking functionalities. All software must be new and delivered within 30 days of purchase order receipt to the department's location at 2221 Devine Street, Room 531, Columbia, South Carolina. The solicitation was initially issued on July 1, 2019, with a submission deadline of July 8, 2019, at 10:00 AM, and questions from offerors were required by July 5, 2019, at 12:00 PM. Award will be made to the lowest responsible and responsive bidder, with the initial award notification originally scheduled for July 9, 2019, though subsequent extension notices indicate the award posting date was delayed and would be communicated one working day in advance.

The solicitation requires offerors to hold a current South Carolina vendor registration number and provides opportunities for vendors to claim South Carolina or US end-product preferences. Standard procurement provisions include independent price determination certifications, debarment certifications, and drug-free workplace certifications. Vendors are encouraged to identify any potential unfair competitive advantages or conflicts of interest. Payment will be processed by check to the address specified on Page Two following submission of proper invoices, with all prices required to exclude sales and use taxes and remain fixed for the contract duration. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly detailed, the procurement emphasizes preferences for in-state vendors and US end products. No incumbent vendor information is provided in the solicitation documents. The procurement will be managed by Jason Evans, the Procurement Officer, who can be contacted at 803-734-9357 or jason.evans@ppp.sc.gov for any inquiries. Though specific budget ranges are not disclosed, the comprehensive software licensing and support package suggests a significant investment in technological infrastructure for the department's operations.
