DNR-Small Purchase with Sole Source - subscription for CADD and structural design software

The state of Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) is seeking to renew its subscription for computer-aided design and drafting (CADD) software as well as structural analysis and design software from Bentley Systems, Incorporated. This is a small purchase with sole source conditions, as the IDNR has an existing relationship and dependency on the Bentley Systems software for its operations. The procurement is for the renewal of these software subscriptions, with no changes to the existing products or services. Key requirements include the ability to provide the necessary CADD and structural design software, as well as experience integrating with the IDNR's existing IT infrastructure. The submission deadline for this opportunity is August 17, 2023.

As this is a sole source procurement, there are no set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. Bentley Systems, Incorporated is the incumbent vendor, as they currently provide the CADD and structural design software to the IDNR. The budget range for this contract is not specified, as it is a renewal of an existing subscription-based service. The contract will be subject to the State of Illinois' standard terms and conditions, which cover various requirements such as payment terms, confidentiality, intellectual property, and compliance with applicable laws.
