AI Summary
Colorado Department of Corrections seeks sole source procurement of Global Shop Solutions ERP software platform for Colorado Correctional Industries. The software manages shop workflows and must be provided exclusively by GSS due to proprietary rights and operational necessity. Feedback or objections accepted via bidnetdirect.com.
The Colorado Department of Corrections (CDOC), on behalf of Colorado Correctional Industries (CCi), hereby identifies Global Shop Solutions (GSS) as the sole source provider for the Global Shop Solutions Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software platform. This software is essential for the management of CCi shop workflows, encompassing processes from initial quoting and production to final shipping and invoicing. Having utilized GSS for approximately two decades, CCi intends to transition its existing proprietary ERP products to the GSS Cloud service. Replacing of the products from GSS would create an undue and substantial financial burden for CCi. Operational and ordering delays would also occur, causing workflow, shipping, and invoicing backlogs that CCi cannot withstand due to their exempt fiscal status. Global Shop Solutions maintains exclusive authorization within the United States to license, implement, and support its proprietary ERP platform and associated technologies. Given the proprietary nature of this software, all deployment, configuration, and ongoing technical support must be conducted exclusively by Global Shop Solutions personnel. This Notice of Proposed Sole Source is issued to ensure procurement transparency and to provide interested parties or potential competitors an opportunity to submit formal feedback or objections. This action follows a formal determination by the CDOC that Global Shop Solutions is the unique provider of this specialized programming. Any objections concerning this procurement must be submitted via bidnetdirect.com//cdoc. Such submissions must comprehensively demonstrate the vendor's ability to provide the specific proprietary formats and curriculum required for this project. Pursuant to Colorado Revised Statutes (C.R.S.) § 21-106-103(5), this notice of intent to award a sole source contract has been posted for a minimum of three business days. **Solicitation Type**: SSN - Sole Source Notice (Informal) **Source ID**: PU.AG.USA.2502398.C14934601 **Piggyback Contract**: No **Questions are submitted online**: No **Bid Submission Type**: Electronic Bid Submission **Additional Bidding Instructions**: If you have questions when responding please contact bidnetdirect vendor support at 800-835-4603 option 2. **Solicitation Number**: NPSS 2026000222 **Reference Number**: 0000425792 **Pricing**: No Pricing **Bid Documents List**: | Item Name | Description | Mandatory | Limited to 1 file | |---|---|---|---| | Response Documents | Response to Sole Source determination | Yes | No |
