Real Time Digital Alert Addition to Geotab Units

The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) is conducting a Single Feasible Source (SFS) procurement for a Real Time Digital Alert System compatible with existing Geotab Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) Units installed in the MoDOT fleet. The solicitation identifies HAAS, Inc. as the sole source provider for this specialized system, with BlueArrow Telematics Inc. recognized as the only authorized HAAS distributor compatible with MoDOT's existing Geotab AVL units. The procurement seeks to add a digital alert addition that must seamlessly integrate with the current vehicle tracking infrastructure. The solicitation period runs from January 13, 2023, to January 23, 2023, with responses due by 2:00 PM CST on January 23, and the contract period spanning from March 16, 2023, to March 15, 2024. Vendors must submit responses electronically through the MissouriBUYS eProcurement system and will be evaluated based on their ability to supply the specified commodities or services, with the award going to the lowest and best bidder that meets all mandatory specifications.

The procurement encourages 10% Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) and 5% Women Business Enterprise (WBE) participation through various arrangements such as subcontractors, suppliers, or joint ventures. All vendors must be registered with MissouriBUYS and maintain good standing with the Missouri Secretary of State and Department of Revenue. The solicitation includes standard state contracting provisions, such as nondiscrimination requirements, compliance with the Domestic Products Procurement Act, and verification of participation in federal work authorization programs like E-Verify. While no specific total contract value is listed, the procurement follows state regulations for single feasible source purchases over $5,000, which require public notice, and over $25,000, which necessitate additional advertising. The incumbent vendor is HAAS, Inc., distributed through BlueArrow Telematics Inc., with the procurement structured to ensure continued compatibility with MoDOT's existing Geotab AVL units.
