The Purchasing Department has received the following request for sole source procurement:

Product and/or Service to be purchased: Emergency alert mass notification system
Sole Source Supplier: Rave Mobile Safety
Earliest Proposed Purchase Date: 6/2/2023
Valid Effective Date Range: June 2023 – June 2028
Buyer Name: Colette Brown
Sole Source Justification:

The Department of Public Safety-Emergency Management has been using Rave Alert by Rave Mobile for the past six years. Rave Alert has been an essential tool for the Department of Emergency Management. As the department is responsible for providing alerts for all incidents that happen on campus, it is crucial to ensure that everyone is safe and aware of any danger. The system has been particularly useful in emergency situations where time is of the essence, and immediate action is required. Without Rave Alert, it would be challenging to reach everyone on campus quickly and efficiently. The system has allowed the department to send out alerts to all students, faculty, and staff members simultaneously, ensuring that everyone is informed and prepared. The implementation of the Rave Alert emergency notification system has significantly improved the safety alert process in our department, and across the university. This system has streamlined the process, allowing for quick and efficient dissemination of important safety information to students, faculty, and staff. The Rave Alert system has been a valuable addition to safety protocols.
The University proposes using Rave Mobile Safety for five years for compatibility of the software system. Estimated transitional costs of $132,525.00 are considered unreasonable and/or cost prohibitive.

The Purchasing Department has received the following request for sole source procurement:

Product and/or Service to be purchased: Serological Screening Services
Sole Source Supplier: Eurofins VRL
Earliest Proposed Purchase Date: 6/2/2023
Buyer Name: Anthony Ferrara
Sole Source Justification:

There are no labs we are aware of in close proximity to our location that will meet the TAT of 18 hours or less for receipt of testing results. Serological screening of organ, eye and tissue blood prior to transplantation is required by the FDA using test kits approved strictly for cadaveric blood. Our organization ships blood samples to  VRL for testing not only eye donors procured by our organization, but also for shared tissue donors procured by the local procurement organization, DonorConnect located in Salt Lake City.

Having the control of submitting blood specimens on behalf of DonorConnect is a benefit to our organization as we require less than 18 hours TAT for results while DonorConnect has a few weeks. Forcing a shift in business to another lab potentially jeopardizes our ability to maintain this control, thereby creating less desirable tissue quality for our corneal surgeons due to testing delays.

This posting will be valid for 5 year expiring 5/26/2028.
