IPHEC2140 for IT Consulting is now available for temporary information technology personnel and consulting services for a variety of IT applications, systems, and services. This award replaces KRS102. Awards were made and contracts have been entered with fifty-three firms and can be utilized by departments from any of the three universities and System Offices.
These awards are meant specifically for use in obtaining services from one or more of fifteen categories. Firms can only be utilized for the category(s) for which they were awarded. The initial contract term is for the period of June 23, 2021 through June 22, 2026 with the option to renew for one five-year additional period.
When using this award, departments will seek quotations from all vendors awarded in a category. To manage this efficiently, a new iBuy form has been released, Completing the Quick Quote IPHEC2140 IT Contract Form. This form will automatically distribute quotation requests to the vendors awarded in the category of need. Vendors will submit offers to the email identified in the quick quote form. Requestors will evaluate all responses and enter quotes from the top three offers into the iBuy form. A cart will then be created for the vendor who provides the best value or lowest cost to the requesting department.
