MIDAS Civil Structural Software Maintenance

The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) is conducting a Single Feasible Source (SFS) procurement for annual software maintenance of the MIDAS Civil Structural software. The solicitation, identified by number SFS605CO18000202, is specifically targeting MIDASoft, Inc. of New York, NY as the sole source provider for this proprietary software maintenance. The procurement covers the initial contract period from September 1, 2017, to August 31, 2018, with the potential for renewal. MoDOT has determined that MIDASoft, Inc. is the only vendor capable of providing the required maintenance, as the software is proprietary and exclusively available from this manufacturer. The solicitation period ran from July 28, 2017, at 2:00:00 PM CDT to August 03, 2017, at 11:00:00 AM CDT, with all potential vendors required to be registered in the MissouriBUYS procurement system to access full terms and conditions. Delivery terms are specified as Free On Board Destination, with payment terms set at Net 30 Days.

The solicitation does not indicate specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations. No incumbent vendors are explicitly mentioned beyond MIDASoft, Inc. being the current and proposed sole source provider. While the exact contract value is not specified, the solicitation notes that purchases over $5,000 require public notice, and those exceeding $25,000 necessitate additional advertising at least five days before contract award. The procurement is justified under Missouri Code of State Regulation 7 CSR 10-11.020(4)(A)1, which allows single feasible source procurement for proprietary supplies only available from a manufacturer or single distributor. Vendors are permitted to submit responses either electronically through MissouriBUYS or via hard copy, though electronic submission is encouraged. The solicitation suggests that the procurement is primarily for ongoing annual software maintenance services with no specified additional infrastructure integration requirements.
