About this opportunity

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement is advertising an intended single-source purchase of Gladiator Forensics investigative software, with the 15 business day statutory notice period closing September 2, 2026. This is not an RFP or RFQ but a statutorily mandated advertisement of sole-source intent under which prospective vendors may submit information regarding their ability to supply comparable products or services.

FDLE justifies the single-source acquisition on the grounds that Gladiator Forensics is the exclusive manufacturer, seller, and distributor of the platform, with no other vendor authorized to produce, distribute, or provide training services for the hardware and software. The agency asserts that no comparable product exists with equivalent capabilities.

The procurement covers investigative software classified under UNSPSC 43232309 (Information retrieval or search software). The contract term is one year, from September 29, 2026, through September 29, 2027. The estimated contract value is $40,600. The intended sole-source vendor is Gladiator Forensics, LLC, located at 100 Rialto Place, Suite 605, Melbourne, Florida 32901. The purchase was approved by Julia Lycett, Chief of General Services, and Mike Duffey, Special Agent in Charge. No bidders' conference or site visit is scheduled.
