SS-23-004-TH esri

The Florida Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO) is seeking to procure ArcGIS mapping software from Environmental Systems Research Institute, Inc. (ESRI) to assist in the deployment and updating of broadband location-specific infrastructure. The DEO requires the ESRI software to establish a base map identifying current broadband access and update it as new projects are approved and completed using funding from the American Rescue Plan Act and the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. The contract term is for 1 year, and the total price for the ESRI software subscription package is $195,898.00. The DEO has justified this as a single source purchase, stating that the product is proprietary in nature. The contract opportunity is limited to the state of Florida, specifically Leon County and the city of Tampa. The deadline for this opportunity is January 4, 2023.

This contract opportunity is not designated as a set-aside for any specific type of organization. The DEO has not identified any incumbent vendors or current contractors, nor has it mentioned any existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. Based on the total contract value, this could be considered a medium-sized state or local contract opportunity.
