The Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) and the Florida Fish and Wildlife Research Institute (FWRI) are procuring Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI), Inc. software licenses, new concurrent use ESRI licensing, maintenance, and technical support for a 3-year term from 10/1/2022 to 9/30/2025. The ESRI software is the core of FWC/FWRI's GIS capabilities, used for distribution of maps and spatial data, field data collection, resource mapping, spatial analysis, operational awareness, cartographic production, and enterprise GIS database management. The estimated dollar amount for this procurement is $950,000.00. FWC/FWRI is requesting authority to purchase ESRI products as a sole source, as the software is proprietary and ESRI is the only source for the required maintenance and concurrent use licensing, which includes technical support and rights to new software versions. Prospective vendors must provide information in writing regarding their ability to supply the required products or services by the deadline of May 13, 2022 2:30PM ET.

The procurement is not designated as a set-aside, and there are no restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The agency has determined that the services or commodities described are only available from a single source, ESRI. The contractor/vendor ultimately selected must warrant the capability to fully perform the contract requirements and comply with all applicable rules and laws.
