The Agency hereby provides notice that it entered into an emergency contract per S.C. Code Ann. §11-35-1570 with Vendor for the following supplies, services, information technology, or construction:

The South Carolina Department of Administration, in accordance with South Carolina Procurement Code, Section 11-35-1570 and regulation 19-445.2110, is providing public notice of the award of an emergency contract to Blanchard Machinery. The total potential value the contract is approximately $78,460.92.

 

This procurement is for two (2) 72-inch cooling tower blades and the associated duct cylinder assembly that has failed, resulting in the cooling tower being unable to provide cool enough water with high outdoor temperatures in the upper 80s and low 90s to feed the chillers without shutting them down. This is the main testing facility for infection diseases for DHEC. This facility operates 24/7 and without sufficient cooling, would have to shut down and route all testing to independent laboratories. The inability to complete testing on site creates a threat to public health as DHEC would not be able to report testing results in compliance with the Centers for Disease Control guidelines. Additionally, routing all testing to independent labs would risk specimen contamination.

The South Carolina Aeronautics Commission (SCAC), in accordance with South Carolina Procurement Code, Section 11-35-1570 and regulation 19-445.2110, is providing public notice of the award of an emergency contract to Rebel Services, LLC. The total potential value the contract is approximately $70,000.00.

This procurement is for the installation of veeder-root tank monitoring systems for 5 underground fuel tanks. The current system has stopped working properly, and if left unrepaired, the DHEC will close the fueling system utilized for agency aircraft and aircraft operational costs will increase significantly as there will be a need to purchase fuel at retail rates rather than wholesale. Also, if this system were left unrepaired, it would run the risk of the agency not knowing if tanks leak, and the agency would face penalties from DHEC.

Clemson intends to sole source the purchase of STINGAR security automation software platform because STINGAR is a security automation software platform that uses honeypots to remove unwanted or malicious traffic from enterprise networks. STINGAR is a homegrown platform from Duke University primarily used by Higher Ed institutions. STINGAR can integrate with our existing networking equipment, like Firewalls and Routers, to improve the overall performance of your network defenses by performing real-time threat blocking. With STINGAR we will be able to take advantage of: Shared Threat Intelligence -Provides real-time visibility of cyber attacks -Shared threat data between all partners, which intern improves the defenses of all partners -The network effect: Shared data value grows with more users Network Gatekeeping -Real-time threat blocking at the network edge -Sophisticated “block list” processing avoids false positives Automated Response -Provides Automatic Threat detection & Response in real-time -Sub-second response time from intrusion detection to blocking -Improves quality & utilization of existing network defenses -Reduces workload of Security/Incident Response Teams -Saves operating cost Some of the possible results upon deployment could be: Improved network security & reduced operating costs -Removal of lousy traffic from enterprise networks -Increase in blocks -@Duke from ~10M to over 1B blocks per day -Reduction of intrusions -@Duke >100x increase in blocked intrusion attempts -Automation with STINGAR reduced SOC workload & lowered operating costs -Dramatic reduction in daily IDS alerts (>90%) -Realtime shared threat data blocks >75% of attacks before they are detected -Enhanced protection against DDoS-style attacks To summarize, I believe adding STINGAR to our tool arsenal would increase our real-time visibility of cyber-attacks on our network. It would drastically help with real-time threat blocking at the network edge, allowing the team to focus on items that get through our defenses faster by reducing the noise.

The Agency hereby provides notice that it intends to enter into a sole source contract per S.C. Code Ann. §11-35-1560 with Vendor for the following supplies, services, information technology, or construction:

Clemson University requires the purchase of a Foss NIRS D3, an instrument that is only available direct from the manufacturer. Clemson is conducting research on the use of visible and near-infrared reflectance to predict plant traits such as starch, protein, and carotenoid content. Because the range of the predictive signal varies the for traits of interest, Clemson requires a spectrometer that measures reflectance across the full visible and near-infrared range (400-2500nm). While other companies offer spectrometers that cover only part of this range, the Foss D3 utilizes silicon (Si) and lead sulfide detectors to measure reflectance on a spectral wavelength range of 400-2500 nm. Clemson is working in close collaboration with other research groups to measure plant breeding material (seed, vegetative tissue) quality. Two or more of these groups already have Foss visible and near-infrared spectrometers. The transfer of prediction models between organizations will allow for robust and consistent predictions across groups, fostering collaborative projects between institutions. The Foss DS3 is factory standardized in wavelength, bandpass, and response for precise calibration transfer. This means that it has improved calibration transferability and the same calibration can be used on multiple instruments out of the box. No other supplier can meet the unique design and compatibility needs outlined above. For these reasons, this is a sole source procurement.
