The Department of Management Services of the State of Florida intends to award a single-source contract to Motorola Solutions, Inc. for the maintenance and technical support of the MotoBridge system that enables interoperability across the Florida Interoperability Network (FIN), a critical public safety communications infrastructure. This procurement is justified under Florida Statutes 120.57(3) and 287.057(3), and Rule 60A-1.045 of the Florida Administrative Code, due to the proprietary nature of the MotoBridge technology, which was originally installed in 2004 and cannot be effectively maintained or repaired by any other vendor. The contract, covering a 12-month period from July 1, 2026, to June 30, 2027, carries an estimated value of $563,349.36 and will provide comprehensive service including preventive and corrective maintenance, component-level repairs, replacements, and 24/7 technical support across all deployment sites throughout the state.

Prospective vendors have until 5:00 PM ET on June 17, 2026, to submit information challenging the sole-source determination, after which the department will publish its intent to award if no viable alternatives are identified. All services are performance-based, with acceptance tied to uninterrupted system functionality and adherence to Motorola’s proprietary specifications. The Department of Management Services’ Purchasing Administrator, Alisha Morgan, serves as the primary point of contact for submissions and inquiries, and proposals may be submitted via mail, email, fax, or the Vendor Information Portal, although no detailed format, page limits, or formal evaluation criteria are specified due to the non-competitive nature of the acquisition. The contract structure is believed to be firm-fixed price with no option periods, and no specific accounting, invoicing, or packaging requirements are detailed in the documentation.
The contract pertains to the management and administration of the State University System Optional Retirement Program (SUSORP) 403(B) and the Senior Management Service Optional Annuity Program (SMSOAP) 401(A) for Florida, with an estimated value ranging from five to fifteen million dollars. The solicitation, issued by the Florida Department of Management Services, has undergone multiple amendments, with Addendum No. 3 updating key timelines, protest procedures, and clarifying that its provisions supersede prior information. The procurement process is scheduled to commence with solicitation posting in late April 2025, followed by a series of question periods, evaluations, negotiations, and a public meeting, culminating in an anticipated contract award by December 2025, with the contract starting upon execution.
Regarding contractual clauses and regulatory references, only Florida Statutes Chapter 120, governing protest procedures, is explicitly incorporated, emphasizing timely protest filing and bond posting requirements. No federal or state-specific clauses, standard FAR clauses, or detailed terms and conditions are referenced or embedded within the available documentation. The solicitation does not specify particular evaluation criteria, award basis, or detailed technical or performance standards beyond statutory compliance. Additionally, there are no explicit requirements related to packaging, marking, shipping, or security clearances, nor are there any attachments, exhibits, or supporting materials referenced or included. Administrative contacts are limited to the agency’s procurement officer and protest filing contacts, with no detailed contract management or invoicing procedures provided. The procurement emphasizes procedural adherence, with deadlines and locations for public meetings clearly outlined, but lacks detailed technical, cost, or performance specifications in the current documentation.
