Florida Interoperability Network (FIN) Maintenance

The Florida Department of Management Services (DMS) is issuing a notice of intended decision to enter into a single source contract with Motorola Solutions, Inc. for maintenance and support of the Florida Interoperability Network (FIN). The FIN is a system that allows federal, state, and local agencies to bridge communication between disparate radio systems. Under this intended contract, Motorola Solutions will provide maintenance, break/fix repair or replacement, and technical support for the existing MotoBridge equipment, including radio equipment, gateways, computers, servers, and workstations. DMS has the authority to maintain this system under Florida statutes. The intended single source contract is valued at $563,349.36, and the justification is that the Motorola system is proprietary, and Motorola is the only company that can provide the necessary maintenance and replacement parts. This contract is critical to maintaining continuity of service for the FIN, which is an important resource for communication between agencies during daily operations and emergency response.

This is a single source procurement, and there are no set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. Motorola Solutions, Inc. is the incumbent vendor for this contract. The deadline for this opportunity is June 25, 2024, with the contract term beginning upon execution.
