AI Contract Overview

The Florida School for the Deaf and the Blind is procuring a comprehensive suite of proprietary enterprise asset management software from Brightly Software Inc. under a sole-source acquisition for FY 2026–2027, with a not-to-exceed budget of $13,100.00. The software includes integrated applications such as 360 Facility Condition Assessment, Asset Essentials, MaintenanceDirect, MySchoolDude, CrisisManager, FSDirect, HelpDesk, InventoryDirect, Energy Manager, and several others, all uniquely developed and commercially available only through Brightly. These applications are essential for managing facility conditions, preventive maintenance, inventory tracking, incident reporting, energy consumption analytics, and capital planning across the school’s campus, and no other vendor in North America offers equivalent functionality or integrated capabilities. Brightly is the sole provider authorized to deliver and support these products, with certification required for any implementation or technical assistance, ensuring compatibility and performance across the full suite. The acquisition is justified solely on the grounds of technological uniqueness and market exclusivity, with no competitive alternatives available, making it a non-competitive procurement under Florida statutes. The software will be delivered and accessed electronically at the school’s location in Florida, with no physical goods or packaging requirements. The contract does not include formal FAR clauses, line-item pricing, option periods, or detailed delivery schedules, and invoicing methods, accounting codes, or certification of vendor size status are not provided. The primary point of contact for procurement matters is Kim Whitwam, Director of Purchasing, and responses to the solicitation must be submitted via email by June 16, 2026, to evaluate the sole-source justification prior to award.
