LiveU Equipment and Services

Leon County and the Executive Office of the Governor in Florida are pursuing a single-source procurement for LiveU streaming equipment and services, specifically targeting the LU800 equipment with six to eight modem capabilities. The procurement is designed to support the Office of Communications' broadcasting of the Governor's press conferences to major news networks, enabling effective communication of critical information to Florida citizens. The contract term is proposed for two overlapping periods: one from April 8, 2025 through April 7, 2026, and another from May 9, 2025 through May 8, 2026. The procurement is being conducted under Sections 120.57(3) and 287.057(3) of Florida Statutes, with a mandatory 15-business-day posting period for potential vendor responses. The agency has determined that LiveU Inc. is the sole vendor capable of meeting their specific requirements, and they are inviting prospective vendors to provide information about comparable commodities or services that might meet their needs.

The procurement appears to be unrestricted in terms of set-aside designations, with an open invitation for potential vendors to demonstrate comparable capabilities. The estimated dollar amount for this single-source acquisition is $43,644.00, with LiveU Inc. currently positioned as the preferred vendor. No specific incumbent vendors are mentioned beyond LiveU Inc., and there are no explicit restrictions on organizational types that can respond to the solicitation. The procurement documents suggest that the agency is open to reviewing alternative solutions if vendors can demonstrate equivalent capabilities to the specified LiveU equipment. Interested parties are encouraged to submit information about their potential to provide comparable streaming equipment and services, with the understanding that the agency will conduct a thorough review of any alternative proposals received during the 15-business-day posting period.
