The South Carolina Department of Disabilities and Special Needs (SCDDSN) has issued an intent to sole source a procurement for Open Text software and services through a non-competitive contract award for Richland County. The specific procurement is focused on acquiring specialized software solutions that meet unique organizational requirements, with a demonstrated need for vendor-specific capabilities that cannot be met through competitive bidding. The procurement opportunity requires potential vendors to submit documentation demonstrating their ability to provide exact specified services, with submissions due by December 21, 2022, at 3:00 p.m. through the state's online procurement portal at http://www.procurement.sc.gov. Interested vendors who believe they can provide comparable services are invited to contact Procurement Officer Virginia Goodson at virginia.goodson@ddsn.sc.gov to discuss their capabilities. The justification for sole sourcing is predicated on Open Text's specialized solution, compatibility with existing systems, and vendor expertise that cannot be easily replicated by alternative providers. The procurement does not explicitly outline specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations. The potential contract value is $12,992.86, representing a relatively modest expansion of existing Open Text software services. Vendors who are aggrieved by the intended award have protest rights, which must be submitted in writing to the Chief Procurement Officer within ten business days of the intent to award posting. Protests must be formalized within fifteen days and can be submitted via email to protest-mmo@mmo.state.sc.us or mailed/delivered to 1201 Main Street, Suite 600, Columbia, SC 29201. The procurement follows South Carolina's established sole source procedures and regulatory requirements, maintaining compliance with state purchasing guidelines while seeking to streamline the acquisition process for specialized software services.
