Canyon County, Idaho is proceeding with a sole‑source procurement to purchase twenty “Verity Print” ballot‑printing units and associated accessories from Hart InterCivic, Inc. The equipment is required because it is the only hardware compatible with the county’s existing voting‑system contract (20‑001). The total quoted price, including estimated shipping, is $143,541.00, with an annual license and support fee of $3,416.00 thereafter. The procurement was declared on March 19 2024, published March 22 2024, and the vendor quote expires April 10 2024. The county will fund the purchase and manages the contract through its Board of Commissioners.
