Key Information
| Notice Type: | Sole Economically Feasible Source |
| Published: | 05/23/2008 |
| Notice Expiration Date: | 06/06/2008 |
| Sole Source Only Justification: | The proprietary software was purchased from CAVU Corporation, and CAVU staff modified their product to suit DOB's needs. Maintenance on CLEAR is critical to keep the system up and running, upgrade/adjust the system (whether for agency needs or per legislative mandate), and get support and technical help from CAVU when needed.
Maintenance must be kept in force to guarantee enhancements, modifications and technical support will be performed by CAVU, as they own the software. Attempts by agency staff to perform system changes will void all warranties and support.
Any challenge to this Notice must be submitted in writing within 14 days of the published date and to the person identified below. Late challenges will not be considered. Only a challenge with documentation which sufficiently demonstrates and proves a prospective vendors ability to meet all specifications and other requirements of the Agency making the award will be considered. The documentation must indicate a price equal to or lower than the amount shown in this Notice. |
