AI Contract Overview
The Florida Department of Health’s Division of Medical Quality Assurance (MQA) intends to acquire a three-year Platform as a Service (PaaS) subscription from IBM Corporation to support its virtual assistant, chatbot, live chat, and virtual voice agent functionalities. This procurement is justified as a single-source purchase under Florida law, specifically Rule 60A-1.045 and sections 120.57(3) and 287.057(3) of the Florida Statutes, due to IBM’s proprietary Watson platform and its unique ability to support the Department’s existing virtual agent, ELI. The contract, with an estimated value of approximately $911,130, is structured as a non-competitive, sole-source award, emphasizing the proprietary nature of IBM’s solution and the absence of alternative vendors capable of providing the required maintenance and support. The contract’s scope includes deploying and maintaining a cloud-based PaaS that enhances customer service and operational efficiency within the Department’s Customer Contact Center. It is set for a three-year term, with no specific delivery milestones beyond the overall duration. Administrative contacts include Israel Campbell, who is responsible for procurement communications, and the contract is approved by the Department’s Purchasing Director. The procurement process involves posting a notice of intent to award a single-source contract, allowing other vendors to submit information demonstrating their capability to meet the requirements, although no competition is anticipated. The contract documentation incorporates relevant Florida administrative rules and statutes but does not specify federal FAR clauses, detailed inspection and acceptance procedures, or additional supporting attachments beyond the referenced rule. Proposal submission is due by October 6, 2025, with no detailed formatting or submission media requirements specified.
