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:

The South Carolina Department of Environmental Services (SCDES) intends to award a contract to Delta Bravo AI, Inc. for the expansion of the agency's existing PermitPro platform. SCDES currently utilizes Delta Bravo AI, Inc.'s PermitPro platform to support critical permitting and compliance activities. PermitPro is a proprietary, agency-specific system developed, owned, and supported solely by Delta Bravo AI, Inc. No other vendor possesses access to the underlying codebase, AI models, workflow logic, Windsor ePermitting integration, or the dedicated customer instance already deployed for SCDES. Because the requested enhancements (including new regulatory workflows, expanded user access, updated AI-driven analysis modules, and deeper Windsor API integration) must be built directly into SCDES's existing PermitPro environment, only Delta Bravo AI, Inc. can technically and legally perform the required work.

Agency's justification for a sole source procurement may be viewed or immediately obtained at: Agency Procurement Manager (Listed Above)
