Forensic Mapping Software

The Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, specifically the Florida Highway Patrol (FHP), is seeking competitive bids for a comprehensive Forensic Mapping Software procurement. The solicitation requests approximately eight Trimble Forensic Reveal Dongle software and perpetual licenses, seven Trimble Forensic Reveal Lite Dongle software and perpetual licenses, and one customized on-site training course for ten troopers. The training will be conducted at the FHP Training Academy in Havana, FL, and requires instructors with law enforcement and traffic crash reconstruction certifications. Bids are due on December 17, 2024, by 2:00 PM ET, with a contract term of two years and an option to renew for two additional years. The Department will award the contract to the responsible and responsive bidder submitting the lowest "Grand Total Price," with bidders required to provide unit pricing for both initial and renewal terms, shipping/delivery costs, and a minimum 10% percentage discount on catalog items not specifically listed.

The procurement supports diversity in its contracting approach, encouraging participation from small, minority, veteran, and women-owned business enterprises. Florida vendors will receive a 5% price preference over out-of-state vendors, unless the out-of-state vendor's home state offers reciprocal preferential treatment. All bid submissions must be made electronically via email, with no paper submissions accepted. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the procurement allows for potential additions, deletions, or substitutions at contract prices or current market prices, whichever is lower. The Department reserves the right to make these adjustments, providing flexibility in the contract's scope and pricing. Bidders must complete the provided price sheet, including options for both Trimble products and equivalent software, and must sign the bid price certification. The solicitation emphasizes a competitive and inclusive procurement process designed to secure the most advantageous forensic mapping software solution for the Florida Highway Patrol.
