ESRI Geographic Information System Software Licenses

The Florida Department of Commerce's Office of Broadband is conducting a single-source procurement for ESRI Geographic Information System (GIS) Software Licenses, specifically targeting ArcGIS mapping software for a 12-month term from May 2025 to April 2026. The procurement is focused on obtaining Enterprise Advantage Program (EEAP) licenses, associated training credits, and mapping tools to support tracking broadband infrastructure projects funded through the American Rescue Plan Act and Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. The key objectives include creating and updating base maps identifying current broadband access, verifying new project areas, and ensuring no duplicate coverage exists among internet service providers. The procurement is specifically for Leon County and follows Florida's statutory guidelines for single-source purchases. The critical deadline for this opportunity is May 6, 2025, with the initial posting date of April 21, 2025. The total contract value is $163,525.00, and the procurement is uniquely justified by ESRI's proprietary geospatial storage method and geodatabase (GDB) format, which positions them as the sole provider of this specific software suite.

The procurement appears to be unrestricted in terms of set-aside designations, with no specific mentions of disadvantaged enterprise requirements or vendor restrictions. Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) is the sole vendor for this procurement, given the proprietary nature of their mapping software and geodatabase format. The existing technological infrastructure requires integration with current broadband mapping and tracking systems, with a focus on supporting federal infrastructure investment initiatives. The budget is precisely defined at $163,525.00 for the 12-month term, covering software licenses, training credits, and mapping tools. Key officials involved in the approval process include the Broadband Director, Budget Liaison Coordinator, and Chiefs of Broadband Funds and General Services. The procurement process has been vetted through multiple administrative levels within the Florida Department of Commerce, ensuring comprehensive review and approval.
