The City of Glendale, California is seeking quotes for Citrix software renewals through Request for Quotation (RFQ) #404146, specifically targeting two product lines: 580 units of Citrix Universal Hybrid Cloud and 40 units of ShareFile Service Unlimited Advanced User. The procurement covers a one-year term from September 24, 2025, through September 23, 2026, with vendors required to be authorized re-sellers of the manufacturer for the US market. Potential bidders must submit quotes electronically via the PlanetBids portal or by sealed envelope to the Glendale Purchasing Department by 11:00 AM on Monday, September 15, 2025, with quotes remaining valid for a minimum of 90 days from the bid closing date.

Pricing must be submitted FOB Glendale, California, inclusive of shipping, and subject to a local sales tax rate of 10.25%. Vendors must provide detailed specifications and are prohibited from offering substitutions or equivalent products without prior approval.

The RFQ does not explicitly mention set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises or specific restrictions on responding organizations beyond the requirement of being an authorized Citrix re-seller. Payment terms are established at Net 30 or better, with purchase orders subject to the City of Glendale's standard terms and conditions. While the exact budget range is not specified, the procurement involves 580 units of Citrix Universal Hybrid Cloud and 40 units of ShareFile Service Unlimited Advanced User, suggesting a potentially significant technology investment. No incumbent vendors are directly identified in the documentation. The procurement appears to be a standard technology renewal aimed at maintaining the city's existing Citrix infrastructure, with an emphasis on strict compliance with specified technical requirements and submission guidelines. Vendors must demonstrate full compliance with CAL-OSHA regulations and applicable federal, state, and local laws to be considered for the contract.
