Per Section 3-04 (2)(i)(D) and 3-04 (2)(ii) of the Procurement Policy Board Rules, the New York City Department of Correction ("DOC" or "Department") is requesting approval for the use of the Negotiated Acquisition Method to contract with GCOM Software LLC to provide consultant services for DOC to manage its Inmate Financial & Commissary System (IFCOM).
It is not practicable or advantageous to award a contract for the services by competitive sealed bidding or competitive sealed proposals because of the immediate need for these services that cannot timely be met through competitive sealed bidding or competitive sealed proposals and there is a limited number of vendors available and able to perform the work. This makes GCOM the best suited for this contract.
The New York City Department of Correction will utilize the Negotiated Acquisition procurement method to obtain services of GCOM Software LLC to provide Maintenance and Support of the Inmate Financial and Commissary System (IFCOM). The term of this procurement will commence from July 1,2024 through June 30,2027; with a two-year renewal option.
GCOM's consultant manages the Department’s IFCOM system for those in custody and ensures its compliance of Title 9, §9-118 Commissaries, and § 9-148 Bail payments and processing of Rules of the City of New York. DOC has an obligation to ensure it can properly process commissary and bail payments through inmate commissary accounts.
Should any vendor feel that are able to provide the services references above, please email an expression interest to Ms. Diana Davydova at diana.davydova@doc.nyc.gov by February 6,2024 at 11AM.
