Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) Annual Training Symposium

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement has issued a public notice of its intended single-source award to Cvent, Inc. for the management of the Criminal Justice Information Services Annual Training Symposium under Florida Statute 287.057, which allows for non-competitive procurement when unique suitability or operational necessity exists. The solicitation number is FDLE-SS-2631AD, and the notice was posted on June 1, 2026, with a response deadline of June 4, 2026, for any protests or inquiries. The contract is structured as a zero-dollar rate agreement, meaning no state funds are allocated for platform access; instead, all costs associated with the symposium are covered by participant registration fees processed through Cvent’s event management system. The primary purpose of the arrangement is to maintain a single, integrated platform for event registration, payment processing, onsite operations, and financial reporting, ensuring data accuracy, eliminating reliance on multiple vendors, and supporting statewide criminal justice training initiatives. The place of performance is the state of Florida, with no specific physical delivery requirements, as the services are entirely digital and administrative. The Florida Department of Law Enforcement has not designated a contracting officer’s representative, technical representative, or procurement contracting officer; all correspondence regarding the contract must be directed to FDLEOGSContracts@fdle.state.fl.us. Compliance with Florida Statute 943.051 and Rule 60A-1.045 of the Florida Administrative Code is required, and the justification for sole-source selection emphasizes continuity, operational efficiency, and existing integration with the Cvent platform. No standard Federal Acquisition Regulation clauses, packaging or labeling requirements, detailed payment or accounting data, inspection criteria, or formal evaluation factors are included, as the procurement is governed exclusively by state statutes and administrative procedures. No representations, certifications, or socioeconomic status information from Cvent, Inc. are provided, and no CLINs, SLINs, or pricing details are specified, reflecting the non-financial nature of the agreement. The sole focus of the transaction is the continued use of an established vendor platform to support a critical, recurring training event for Florida’s criminal justice community.
