AASHTO SOLE SOURCE

The South Carolina Department of Transportation is continuing its enterprise transportation‑management software program under a sole‑source contract with the Association of State Highway Transportation Officials (AASHTO). The contract covers licensing, hosting, maintenance, technical support, and related professional services for the AASHTOWare suite, which supports construction‑management, safety‑management, bridge‑management, and pavement‑management functions across the state. No competing vendors are permitted because AASHTO owns the software and any alternative would require a costly system replacement. The award will be a direct purchase from AASHTO; subcontracting opportunities may exist for implementation, training, or supplemental support services. • Enterprise software licensing for multiple AASHTOWare applications (construction, safety, bridge, pavement) • Cloud‑hosted service delivery, ongoing maintenance, updates, and help‑desk support • Professional services such as implementation assistance, user training, and system administration • Sole‑source justification limits competition; work must be performed directly with or through AASHTO • No disclosed budget, term length, or performance milestones in the provided documents
