Sole Source - Commercial Truck Driving Simulator

Snow College, through its Diesel/Commercial Drivers License (CDL) department, is conducting a sole source procurement for a Fleet Master Commercial Truck Driving Simulator manufactured by Advanced Training Systems. This procurement is specifically for the High Level Residential Treatment Services within the Department of Human Services (DHS), Division of Child and Family Services (DCFS). The procurement is being executed under the Utah Procurement Code, which permits sole source purchases when only one product can reasonably meet organizational needs. The solicitation was released on June 19, 2018, with a response deadline of June 28, 2018, at 2:00 PM MDT. The procurement covers commodity codes for information technology software (43230), motor vehicles (25100), and information technology services (81110). The simulator's unique qualification stems from Advanced Training Systems holding 7 distinct US Patents, which substantiates its exclusive technological capabilities. The primary objective is to partner with Southwest ATC in Cedar and maintain program consistency in commercial truck driver training simulation.

There are no explicit set-aside designations or restrictions on organizational respondents mentioned in the procurement documents. While the procurement is a sole source event, interested parties who disagree with the proposed sole source procurement were instructed to email Mike Jorgensen in Procurement Services prior to the comment deadline. The document does not specify a precise award value or budget range for the simulator. No incumbent vendors or existing infrastructure integration requirements were detailed in the available documentation. The procurement will be conducted using US Dollars, and the process appears to be focused exclusively on acquiring the specific Advanced Training Systems Commercial Truck Driving Simulator for Snow College's CDL program. Potential respondents were not required to demonstrate additional qualifications beyond acknowledging the sole source nature of the procurement.
