Single Source Provider for proprietary vehicle tracking software by Verizon

The Florida School for the Deaf and the Blind (FSDB) is conducting a single-source procurement for a proprietary vehicle tracking software system from Verizon Connect for fiscal year 2025-2026. The procurement is specifically for the Reveal GPS Vehicle Tracking System, a cloud-based platform designed to optimize mobile asset and critical data management for public sector entities. The system offers comprehensive features including maintenance tracking, safety alerts, fuel management, driver behavior monitoring, GPS tracking, and video capture solutions. This non-competitive procurement will be advertised from May 29, 2025, to June 19, 2025, with a strict requirement that the hardware and software can only be obtained from Verizon Connect and is not compatible with other vehicle location systems. The total estimated budget for this procurement is not to exceed $3,900.00, and potential vendors who wish to challenge the single-source determination must contact Kim Whitwam, the Director of Purchasing, at whitwamk@fsdbk12.org within the fifteen-business day advertisement period.

The procurement appears to be open to all vendors, with no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on organizational types mentioned in the documentation. The contract is specific to St. Johns County, Florida, and will be implemented by the Florida School for the Deaf and the Blind. Verizon Connect is the sole source provider for this proprietary Reveal Software Solution, located at 5055 North Point Pkwy in Alpharetta, GA. The modular design of the system allows for flexible implementation, enabling the organization to leverage one or all components of the platform for a complete fleet and workforce management solution. The procurement aims to provide actionable data to maximize vehicle uptime, improve driver behavior, reduce fuel and maintenance costs, optimize routing, and enhance mobile workforce efficiency. The contract value is set at a maximum of $3,900.00 for the fiscal year 2025-2026, covering the hardware, software, and associated services of the Verizon Connect vehicle tracking system.
