Notice of intent to sole source civic plus

Collier County, Florida is pursuing a sole source procurement through its Procurement Services Division for Municode Services from CivicPlus, LLC, effective from October 1, 2024, to September 30, 2034. The primary objective is to acquire electronic and printed copies of Board-approved Ordinances that maintain a standard format for the county's Code of Laws and Ordinances and Land Development Code. This procurement is being conducted under Collier County Procurement Ordinance 17-08, which allows for sole source selection when a specific supplier offers unique capabilities or proprietary technology. The notice was released on August 28, 2024, with a submission deadline of September 4, 2024, at 5:00 pm, during which interested parties can provide feedback or challenge the sole source designation. Potential respondents must submit their responses through the Collier County Procurement Services Division Online Bidding System, with the Procurement Services Division retaining sole discretion in evaluating alternative vendor claims.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations are explicitly mentioned in the procurement documents. The notice does not outline specific award values or budget ranges for the Municode Services contract. CivicPlus appears to be the incumbent and proposed sole source vendor, suggesting they have existing technological infrastructure or a unique service offering that meets Collier County's specific requirements. The procurement process invites potential vendors to demonstrate whether they can provide equivalent services that meet the county's standard format needs for ordinance documentation. While pricing information is not requested at this stage, the document represents a formal exploration of the potential sole source designation for Municode Services over a ten-year contract period.
