About this opportunity

Written by GovTribe AI ·

Collier County Procurement Services Division is pursuing a single-source procurement for HID Global Corporation's biometric scanning hardware and software, specifically the HID Guardian 200 fingerprint scanner and Livescan Management Software (LSMS). The procurement, referenced as PUR 13663, will cover a four-year period from October 1, 2025, to September 30, 2029, with the primary objective of sustaining existing background screening systems for the Facilities Management's Operations Center. The HID Guardian 200 offers advanced fingerprint scanning capabilities, including consistent biometric capture across diverse finger conditions and skin pigmentations, utilizing proprietary FlexFlat and FlexRoll technologies and auto-capture functionality. The software enables efficient multi-biometric collection, seamless biographical data integration, and automatic generation of Electronic Biometric Transmission Specification (EBTS) files for secure submission to state and federal identification systems. The procurement is being conducted under Procurement Ordinance 25-34, Section Twelve, which allows single-source procurement when commodities are available from a single vendor and provide economic and operational benefits. The notice was released on September 22, 2025, with a submission deadline of October 13, 2025, at 3:00 pm, during which potential respondents can submit challenges or alternative sources through the Collier County Procurement Services Division Online Bidding System.

The procurement appears to have no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations. The single-source nature of the procurement suggests that HID Global Corporation is the exclusive provider of the required technology, with no mentioned incumbent vendors or alternative sources. The procurement aims to integrate with existing background screening infrastructure and maintain continuity of biometric identification systems. While no specific award value or budget range is explicitly stated, the four-year contract duration implies a substantial investment in hardware, software, and maintenance services. The Procurement Services Division retains sole discretion in evaluating any alternative source claims, indicating a stringent review process to validate the single-source justification. The technology's capabilities suggest a focus on high-precision biometric scanning for government and public safety applications, with an emphasis on system reliability, ease of use, and comprehensive identification capabilities.

Opportunity text

Description of Intended Products or Services Provided:

The HID Guardian 200 fingerprint scanner provides consistent, high-quality biometric capture regardless of finger condition or skin pigmentation, without recalibration or hand preparation. Its proprietary FlexFlat and FlexRoll technologies ensure accurate image capture from various finger positions on the platen, while the patented Auto-Capture functionality enables fast, error-free acquisition.

Paired with HID's Livescan Management Software (LSMS), this solution supports the efficient collection of multiple biometrics through an intuitive interface that requires minimal training. LSMS also facilitates seamless integration of biographical data and automatically generates compliant Electronic Biometric Transmission Specification (EBTS) files for secure submission to state and federal Automated Fingerprint or Biometric Identification Systems.

This waiver is requested to support future acquisitions of HID hardware, software, or maintenance services needed to sustain existing systems and ensure uninterrupted background screening, which is critical to the mission of Facilities Management's Operations Center.
