The South Carolina Department of Corrections initiated an Invitation for Bid (IFB 5400020838) for investigative software targeting the agency's Police Services division, specifically designed for 10 criminal analysts to support intelligence gathering and investigations. The procurement sought a comprehensive software solution with extensive capabilities, including U.S. telco phone number subscriber histories dating back to 2005, social media profile searches across 98+ sites, dark web and data breach database access, mapping functionality, and batch processing for multiple input datasets. The software was required to operate in a secure environment physically located in the continental United States, with international phone coverage in 120 countries. Key technical requirements included AES-256 encryption, six-year audit log maintenance, and HTTPS-only access. The original solicitation scheduled bid submissions for February 23, 2021, at 10:00 AM, with award notification planned for March 2, 2021, and a proposed one-year contract term with potential automatic renewals for two additional one-year periods. The procurement was open to vendors able to meet stringent technical and security specifications, with South Carolina resident vendor and end-product preferences applicable under SC Code Section 11-35-1524 if claimed by the bidder. However, the solicitation ultimately did not proceed to award, as a Statement of Non-Award was issued due to an administrative error, with indications that a new solicitation would be published in the future. The procurement covered three specific line items: 10 units of WHOOSTER Investigative Software, one unit of LE DaaS Web Search Credits, and one additional unit of LE DaaS Web Search Credits-Overage. While no specific budget range was disclosed, the detailed technical requirements suggested a potentially significant investment in advanced investigative technology. Vendors were required to provide manufacturers' specification literature and comply with all solicitation terms without exception, with potential penalties for late delivery incrementally assessed based on delay periods.
