RFQ FTB-2627-00001 Security Technology Refresh

The California Franchise Tax Board is soliciting quotes under RFQ FTB-2627-00001 for security technology servers, panels, and software for a Security Technology Refresh, with final bids due October 28, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time. The RFQ listing shows a due date of December 11, 2026, which conflicts with the solicitation description, and the description also sets November 30, 2026, as the date FTB will post its Notice of Intent to Award.

The cost worksheet lists seven line items covering hardware and professional services. Hardware includes seven BCD Video Recording Servers with extended warranty and thirteen iSTAR Ultra G2 GCM boards, each carrying a one-year hardware warranty that runs from FTB acceptance. Professional services cover Software House and Milestone professional services and labor. Pricing is evaluated in taxable and non-taxable subtotals, with a 7.75% tax rate applied to taxable items. The worksheet also provides for unanticipated task services at bidder-quoted hourly rates for hardware maintenance outside normal business hours, which would require a separate Work Authorization and agreement amendment. The worksheet is a blank template with all prices at zero for bidder completion.
