Hosting and Licensing

The State of Colorado, on behalf of Denver County and Denver City, is procuring hosting and licensing services through a Scope of Work document issued on May 21, 2026, with a submission deadline of May 27, 2026. This procurement encompasses the provision of software licensing and hosting infrastructure necessary to maintain and support critical state systems and applications. The successful vendor will be responsible for delivering ongoing service delivery with specified performance standards and technical requirements, including software licensing provisions, hosting specifications, and technical infrastructure requirements to support state operations. The contract requires vendors to maintain specific service level agreements and uptime requirements to ensure service quality and reliability. Key deliverables include the establishment of a framework for service delivery with defined system requirements and operational expectations throughout the contract period. Vendors must demonstrate appropriate technical qualifications and the ability to meet performance metrics and reliability standards as outlined in the solicitation documents.

The solicitation document does not explicitly detail set-aside designations or restrictions on respondent eligibility, nor does it specify whether preferences exist for disadvantaged enterprises or other specialized vendor categories. The contract requires successful vendors to support or transition incumbent systems and existing technical infrastructure while maintaining continuity of service during implementation, suggesting there is a current vendor environment that must be accommodated or superseded. Funding for this contract is derived from state appropriations designated specifically for information technology infrastructure and licensing needs. While the specific award value or budget range is not provided in the available summary information, interested vendors should consult the complete FY27 Licensing and Hosting solicitation document for detailed pricing terms, incumbent vendor details, and comprehensive technical specifications necessary to prepare a competitive proposal.
