The Maryland Department of Information Technology has issued a Purchase Order Request for Proposals (PORFP) FC-800-25 under the Hardware Master Contract, specifically targeting Vertiv hardware products within the Statewide Interoperable Communications division.

The solicitation is structured as a fixed-price contract and requires bidders to be authorized Vertiv resellers who can provide estimated shipping dates and include a screenshot of Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Evaluation criteria will primarily focus on pricing for new equipment and shipping costs, with the agency planning to award to the most advantageous offer. The proposal is due on June 30, 2025 at 2:00 PM, and all submitted pricing must remain valid for at least 90 days after the proposal due date. Bidders must ensure proper electronic invoicing and meet all specified submission requirements. This procurement is designated as a Small Business Reserve (SBR) procurement, which means it is limited exclusively to certified small business vendors. Participation is restricted to Master Contractors already awarded under the Hardware and Associated Equipment and Services 2012 contract (060B2490022). No specific Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) goal has been established for this opportunity. The contract covers multiple functional areas including microcomputers, network communication equipment, printers, installation services, and security peripherals. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the procurement involves multiple UPS battery kit units across different kilowatt specifications. Vendors must be prepared to demonstrate their authorization as Vertiv resellers and provide comprehensive documentation supporting their proposal. Electronic invoicing will be the primary method of financial transaction, requiring vendors to adhere to specific submission protocols.
