Continue Services w/CPI for CCIC System

The Colorado Bureau of Investigation is continuing services with Computer Projects of Illinois (CPI) for CCIC system configuration and upgrades under a sole-source procurement, with services commencing July 1, 2026 and due diligence closing July 1, 2026.

This is a sole-source engagement justified on vendor lock-in grounds: CPI is the established system integrator for the statewide Colorado Crime Information Center (CCIC) law enforcement platform, and the CBI determined that switching vendors would trigger prohibitively expensive data migration, system re-implementation, and training costs exceeding the scope of this upgrade project. The procurement covers three statements of work (CO-2026-001, CO-2026-002, CO-2026-003) focused on configuring the OpenFox Message Switch to align with National Crime Information Center (NCIC) National Information Exchange Model (NIEM) XML standards and NCIC Third Generation (N3G) specifications. The contract term runs July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027, with anticipated system maintenance costs in subsequent years.

The estimated total cost is $700,000, allocated entirely to services with no goods component. The CBI determined price reasonableness through comparison with historical rates and catalog pricing. The Sole Source Request was approved by the EDO Purchasing Director. The assigned purchasing agent is Stephanie Marceca (NPSS1 REAA 2026*0241). Place of performance includes Denver County and Denver City jurisdictions in Colorado.
