Bridges Program

The State of Missouri has issued a Single Feasible Source Services (SFSS) contract solicitation for the Bridges Program, with solicitation number SFSS30034902101690. This procurement opportunity is strictly limited to invited vendors and will be conducted through the MissouriBUYS system from April 29, 2021, to May 10, 2021, with responses due by 2:00 PM CDT on the final day. Vendors must either submit hard copies to the Division of Purchasing or electronically submit their proposals through the MissouriBUYS system after reviewing and accepting the solicitation documents. The primary contact for this solicitation is Tunde Howser, who can be reached at 573-751-2497 or april.howser@oa.mo.gov. While the specific details of the services, deliverables, and objectives are not clearly articulated in the available documentation, the contract includes Free On Board Destination delivery terms and Net 45 Days payment terms. A supporting document titled "BRIDGES Program post 2021.doc" is referenced, but its contents are not included in the available materials.

The solicitation documents provide no information regarding set-aside designations, disadvantaged enterprise requirements, or restrictions on the types of organizations eligible to respond. No details are disclosed about incumbent vendors, current contractors, or existing technological infrastructure that might require integration. Similarly, the documentation does not specify any estimated total contract value, budget ranges, or potential award amounts. The procurement appears to be highly restricted, with full details accessible only to pre-selected vendors through the MissouriBUYS system. Vendors are solely responsible for ensuring timely submission of their responses and arranging any necessary technical support to meet the submission deadline. The lack of transparency and specificity in the solicitation documents suggests this is a tightly controlled procurement process with limited public information.
