About this opportunity

Written by GovTribe AI ·

Flagler County is seeking to procure hardware and services for network traffic analysis through the E-Rate Cybersecurity Pilot Program for a new library location in Bunnell. The procurement specifically targets a physical server with precise hardware requirements, including a single or dual processor with at least 12 cores, 64G RAM, and 2 TB hard drive. The IT team aims to acquire equipment and services that can monitor and detect network threats, with a focus on comprehensive cybersecurity protection. The Request for Proposal (RFP) was released on June 6, 2025, with proposals due by July 7, 2025 at 2:00 pm, and the contract period will span from Fall 2025 to Summer 2026, covering the main library and one branch location. Evaluation will be comprehensive, with scoring across eight categories: cost proposal (25%), technical approach (10%), project management (10%), service and maintenance plan (10%), project team qualifications (10%), security questionnaire (15%), non-disclosure agreement (5%), and hardware assessment (15%). Oral presentations are scheduled for July 10, 2025, with an evaluation and scoring meeting on July 14, 2025.

The contract requires vendors to comply with multiple cybersecurity standards, including CIS Controls, NIST, and ISO 27001, and must provide a three-year manufacturer's warranty. While no specific set-aside designations are mentioned, vendors must complete a detailed Third Party Security Questionnaire and maintain specific insurance requirements, including Worker's Compensation, Commercial General Liability, Automobile Liability, and Professional Liability with minimum coverage amounts ranging from $1,000,000 to $2,000,000. Insurance carriers must maintain a minimum financial rating of A-. The project is funded through the E-Rate program, which suggests potential financial constraints, though no specific budget range is explicitly stated in the documents. Vendors must also sign a comprehensive Nondisclosure Agreement and demonstrate the ability to protect sensitive information related to the library's network infrastructure. The county reserves the right to award the contract based on the most advantageous proposal, indicating flexibility in vendor selection beyond purely financial considerations.
