Cisco Software, Hardware, Maintenance, Profess Svcs

Miami-Dade County, Florida is requesting qualifications for Prequalification Pool No. EVN0000101 to establish a roster of Cisco software, hardware, maintenance, and professional-services vendors, with applications due September 21, 2026. The pool mechanism does not constitute a contract; instead, it establishes eligibility for future spot-market competitions via Invitation to Quote or Work Order Proposal Request.

To qualify, vendors must hold a minimum Gold certification level as a Cisco channel partner and provide current certification documentation. This is the controlling eligibility requirement.

The scope spans two groups: Group 1 covers Cisco software (Software as a Service, cloud solutions, enterprise agreements, WebEx, Meraki), hardware (switches, routers, firewalls, access points, cables, accessories), and parts; Group 2 covers Cisco maintenance and technical support, including SMARTnet maintenance, repair services, and OEM professional services (consulting and implementation).

The prequalified pool will be established on the first calendar day of the month following Board of County Commissioners approval and will remain active for five years. Vendors must submit responses electronically through the Integrated Financial Resources Management System (INFORMS) at https://supplier.miamidade.gov. No submission fee is required. Insurance is not required for prequalification but may be mandated in subsequent spot-market competitions. Miami-Dade County reserves the right to add or remove vendors from the pool at its discretion.
