Intent to Award Single Source provider for BrainPop Proprietary Educational Technology Licensing

The Florida School for the Deaf and the Blind intends to award a single source contract to BrainPop for proprietary educational technology licensing, as announced in their notice posted from September 30 to October 3, 2025. This procurement is not competitive and is governed by Florida statutes and administrative rules, specifically §287.057(5)(c), §120.57(3), and Rule 60A-1.045, which outline procedures for single source awards, protests, and public notice requirements. The contract involves the licensing of educational technology under commodity code 86141700, with an estimated value ranging from $50,000 to $200,000, though no detailed pricing, quantities, or line-item breakdowns are provided in the documentation. The procurement process emphasizes transparency through a public notice, with strict timelines for protests—72 hours to file a notice of protest after the intent to award, and ten days for a formal protest. No federal FAR clauses or competitive evaluation criteria are incorporated; the award is based solely on the single source justification. The documentation does not specify delivery schedules, performance milestones, packaging, inspection, or acceptance procedures, nor does it include attachments, exhibits, or supporting materials. Administrative contact is Kim Whitwam, and the process is primarily procedural, focusing on compliance with Florida law, with no proposal submission instructions or technical specifications included beyond the licensing scope.
