Idemia Iris Cameras

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) is conducting a single source procurement for 23 Idemia LiveScan Iris Capture TD200 Devices to support a statewide IRIS data collection pilot program. This procurement is specifically for Leon County and is being conducted under Section 943.051 Florida Statutes, which authorizes FDLE as the central criminal justice information repository. The solicitation was posted on September 3, 2025, with a response deadline of September 24, 2025, and covers the procurement of specialized iris capture technology under UNSPSC code 45121500. The devices are designed to enable local agencies to collect and submit IRIS data, with specific technical requirements mandating compatibility with existing Idemia Livescan devices previously acquired under contract FDLE-ITN-2420. The procurement process is a statutorily mandated fifteen business day advertisement for an intended single source procurement, meaning competitive bidding is not being utilized for this acquisition.

The procurement is exclusively with Idemia Identity & Security USA LLC, located in Reston, Virginia, with no opportunities for alternative vendors or resellers. Idemia has been selected as the sole source provider due to the unique compatibility of their iris capture devices with existing infrastructure, and they do not have authorized resellers for these specific devices. The estimated contract value is $58,000.00, representing a direct procurement of specialized law enforcement technology. No specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises are noted in the documentation. The procurement is designed to enhance FDLE's criminal justice information collection capabilities by standardizing iris data capture across local agencies. The single source justification is predicated on technical compatibility and the specialized nature of the iris capture technology being procured.
