Nagios Software

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) is issuing a single-source contract for the procurement of Nagios software to be used at the North Florida Regional Transportation Management Center (NFRTMC). The intended use of the Nagios software is to minimize network downtime by quickly identifying and responding to issues and bottlenecks, which will improve system redundancy and failover capacity. The FDOT intends to award a one-year contract to Nagios Enterprises, LLC, the sole provider of the Nagios XI software, at a cost of $24,873.30. The justification for the single-source contract is that the Nagios XI software is the only solution that can provide the required monitoring capabilities and the vendor support needed to ensure the NFRTMC network is operational 24/7. The contract will cover one year of ticket support/maintenance, add-on features, a network analyzer unlimited source license, and a log server instance license.

There are no set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond to this opportunity. Nagios Enterprises, LLC is the incumbent vendor, as the Nagios software has been used by the RTMC network staff for several years and is considered a necessary and unique solution for comprehensive network monitoring of the 400-mile RTMC network. The advance payment will ensure the FDOT District Two RTMC network has all its devices and fiber monitored continuously.
