EFC - PSC Small Parts

The Idaho Military Division is seeking an exemption from competition for the procurement of Public Safety Communication small parts through the Department of Procurement (DOP). This contract opportunity, identified by State Local Contract Opportunity ID 67b0a14618df599d8a00a9e2, was posted on February 14, 2025, with a response deadline of February 20, 2025. The procurement process involves potential limited or no competitive bidding, contingent upon the DOP Administrator's discretionary approval. Suppliers are explicitly invited to provide supplemental information that could support or challenge the agency's claim that traditional competitive procurement would be impractical, unreasonable, or disadvantageous. Interested vendors must submit their supporting or contradictory documentation through either the Supplier Attachments section of IPRO or via email to purchasing@adm.idaho.gov. All submissions must be received prior to the specified closing date and time to be considered in the Administrator's decision-making process.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations were explicitly outlined in the opportunity description. The procurement appears to be open to general suppliers of public safety communication small parts, with no apparent limitations on business size, type, or minority/disadvantaged enterprise status. While the exact award value or budget range is not specified, the solicitation suggests a focused procurement for specialized small parts within the public safety communication sector. The contract represents a potential direct procurement method, pending the DOP Administrator's final determination on the competition exemption. Vendors are encouraged to provide detailed information that could influence the procurement approach, with the understanding that the final decision remains solely at the discretion of the administrative authority.
