Hobson's Intersect

The State University of New York at Delhi intends to procure a three-year subscription renewal for Hobsons Inc.'s Intersect Connection and Intersect Awareness software solutions through a non-competitive procurement process under NYS Education Law 355(5)(a). The procurement is specifically for software integration services that will be implemented across all New York State counties, with the primary location being 454 Delhi Drive in Delhi, NY. Due to the proprietary nature of the software solutions, the university is proceeding without a formal competitive bidding process. Interested vendors must submit proposals within 15 business days of the advertisement notice, with the final due date set for April 10, 2025, at 3:00 PM. The procurement will involve a comprehensive software subscription renewal that requires detailed integration capabilities and specialized technological compatibility.

The contract opportunity does not include any specific set-aside designations for service-disabled veteran-owned businesses or minority-owned enterprises, with 0% participation goals across multiple categories. The total procurement value is up to $125,000 for the three-year contract term. Hobsons Inc. appears to be the incumbent vendor, as they are listed as the previous provider of an identical or substantially similar procurement contract within the past five years. The procurement is directly tied to the State University of New York at Delhi's technological infrastructure and requires seamless integration with existing systems. Potential respondents should carefully review the proprietary nature of the software solutions and ensure their capabilities align with the university's specific technological requirements.
