Real Time Digital Alert Addition to Geotab Units

The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) issued a Single Feasible Source (SFS) solicitation (MODOT 0000000186SL) for the procurement of a Real Time Digital Alert System addition to existing Geotab Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) units within the MoDOT fleet. MoDOT determined that HAAS, Inc., through its sole authorized distributor Blue Arrow Telematics Inc., is the only source capable of providing a compatible system for the existing Geotab AVL units currently deployed across the department's vehicle fleet. The procurement involves monthly subscription services for HAAS Alert on 731 units, with pricing submitted on a per-unit monthly subscription basis. The solicitation opened on January 7, 2026, at 3:00 PM Central Time and closed on January 14, 2026, at 2:00 PM Central Time, with responses accepted electronically via MissouriBUYS or via hard copy submission (mail, UPS, or FedEx) contingent upon buyer approval at least five business days prior to the closing date. The contract period is March 16, 2026, through March 15, 2027, with two additional one-year renewal options at MoDOT's sole discretion. Award criteria include compliance with all mandatory specifications and requirements, with evaluation based on lowest and best value considering price and other specified evaluation factors. Respondents were required to contact buyer Ashten Lorts at ashten.lorts@modot.mo.gov at least five business days before bid closing if submitting hard copy bids.

The solicitation contains no explicit set-aside designations or restrictions limiting responses to specific enterprise categories. Blue Arrow Telematics, Inc. was the sole respondent and the awarded contractor, submitting a bid of $3,655.00 for HAAS Alert monthly subscriptions at $5.00 per unit per month for 731 units, though award documentation indicates an awarded unit price of $731.00 per unit. The procurement requires integration with MoDOT's existing Geotab AVL infrastructure, with the HAAS Alert Safety Cloud platform serving as the real-time digital alert system providing emergency response notifications, road work alerts, and vehicle collision prevention capabilities. The contractor must maintain adequate liability insurance naming MoDOT as an additional insured, provide a planned delivery schedule at least two business days before service initiation, and comply with payment terms of Net 45 with FOB freight arrangements. No price increases are permitted during the first six months of the original contract period or any renewal period. The total awarded contract value is $3,655.00 with the potential for expansion or reduction in quantities at the bid unit price, subject to MoDOT's discretion.
