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:

SafeSpect integration to Mobile Forms UCC. SmartCop will develop a method within the Mobile Forms UCC that provides the STP officer (while online) with a means to query and return SafeSpect inspection data for reuse within UCC as part of the UCC ticket issuance process. This method will work while the STP officer has connectivity as it requires real time query access to SafeSpect using the query parameters defined in the SafeSpect API (i.e. DOT #, inspection #, etc.) SmartCOP will also ensure SafeSpect data is properly parsed for reuse within the UCC. SmartCOP will also develop a method for STP users (while online) to query SafeSpect directly through the MCT. This will be a simple query based on SafeSpect API query parameters that will return inspection data within MCT for STP officer viewing.
