All mandatory compliance requirements include Nevada law provisions, non-boycott of Israel certification, and data encryption and stateside data requirements. Insurance requirements are comprehensive, including Commercial General Liability of $2,000,000 aggregate/$1,000,000 per occurrence, Automobile Liability of $1,000,000 combined single limit (waivable if no motor vehicles used), Workers' Compensation at statutory limits with Employers' Liability of $100,000 per accident, Technology Errors & Omissions/Professional Liability of $1,000,000 per claim/$2,000,000 annual aggregate, and Network Security and Privacy Liability of $1,000,000 per occurrence/$2,000,000 annual aggregate for contracts under $5 million. The solicitation requires vendors to submit financial statements, Dun and Bradstreet numbers as confidential business information, disclose all subcontractors, and provide at least three client references from similar projects completed within the past five years. No budget range or award value is specified in the solicitation documents, and no incumbent vendor information is disclosed; however, the cost proposal structure indicates a four-year contract term with Year 1 including materials, installation, and configuration costs for both locations, followed by Years 2-4 maintenance and support fees only.
