Rubrik HW, SW LIC & prof svcs (brand only)

The State of California is requesting bids for Rubrik hardware, software licenses, and professional services on a brand-exclusive basis under RFB-IS-26201016-1, with bids due June 17, 2026. This is a sole-source procurement limited to Rubrik-branded products and authorized resellers.

The scope encompasses Rubrik hardware appliances, software licensing across multiple tiers, and professional services including implementation, consulting, training, and support. The procurement establishes standardized pricing structures and product configurations applicable across California state and local agencies, enabling participating jurisdictions to procure pre-negotiated Rubrik solutions for backup, recovery, and cloud data management aligned with existing state information systems and security protocols.

Pricing schedules for hardware appliances, software subscriptions, maintenance agreements, and professional service hours are detailed in Exhibit 6 and Appendix A. The contract structure allows flexible procurement options, permitting agencies to select specific products and service levels based on individual data protection and recovery requirements. Total cost of ownership calculations and service level commitments factor into the evaluation. Warranty terms and vendor qualifications related to Rubrik implementation capability are evaluation considerations. Contract terms and renewal options provide flexibility for the state's ongoing operational requirements and account for California state procurement regulations and fiscal appropriations.
