Statewide Online Legal Research Subscriptions

The State of Missouri has issued a Single Feasible Source - IT (SFST) solicitation for Statewide Online Legal Research Subscriptions, targeting various state agencies across multiple jurisdictions including Clark County and Jefferson City. The procurement is specifically designed for invited vendors only, with a contract period spanning from October 1, 2020 to September 30, 2021. The solicitation requires vendors to provide comprehensive online legal research subscription services to be delivered statewide, with delivery terms specified as Free On Board Destination. Vendors must submit their responses either electronically through the MissouriBUYS system or as a hard copy, with a strict submission window between October 29, 2020 at 1:00 PM CDT and October 30, 2020 at 3:00 PM CDT. The solicitation provides payment terms of Net 45 Days and requires vendors to review and accept all solicitation documents, though specific line items or detailed service specifications are not explicitly outlined in the available documentation.

The solicitation appears to be restricted to a pre-selected group of invited vendors, with no explicit information regarding set-aside designations for disadvantaged businesses or specific vendor qualifications. No incumbent vendors are identified in the documentation, and the estimated total contract value is not disclosed. The procurement does not provide details about current technological infrastructure or integration requirements for the online legal research subscriptions. The point of contact for this solicitation is Nicolle Backes from the State of Missouri's Office of Administration, located in Jefferson City, who can be reached for potential vendor inquiries. While the solicitation provides a comprehensive framework for the procurement process, it lacks specific details about evaluation criteria, vendor qualifications, or the precise scope of the online legal research services being sought.
