Texas DIR statewide cybersecurity products and services cooperative procurement

The Texas Department of Information Resources is seeking cybersecurity products and related services for eligible customers statewide through a cooperative contract. - Government buyer: Texas Department of Information Resources (DIR); statewide Texas coverage for DIR and other eligible customers. No specific sub-agency or office is identified. - Products requested: Broad cybersecurity hardware and software, including data/file encryption and security, inventory management, redaction and de-identification, monitoring and threat alerts, backup and recovery, firewall, operating-system and network-management utilities, screen and virus protection, biometric authentication for mainframes and servers, and communication security systems. Specific products, quantities, and part numbers are not specified; respondents are to propose offerings with itemized pricing and discounts. - Services requested: Security and safety consulting; network installation, security, and maintenance; card-access security; disaster document recovery; identity-theft protection; and data-security services. - OEMs and vendors: No proposed product OEMs or suppliers are identified. Widgets Inc. appears only as an illustrative respondent in the PDAA example, not as a named supplier for this procurement. - Accessibility requirements: Technology-related responses require a Policy Driven Adoption for Accessibility (PDAA) vendor self-assessment. The assessment addresses organizational accessibility practices, not individual products; missing, incomplete, blank, or zero-score assessments may fail evaluation. For relevant website, web/mobile application, custom integrated-solution, client-based software, or other user-interface development services, the VADSIR requests details on accessibility processes, training, tools, testing, remediation, support, and examples meeting Section 508 or WCAG 2.1 AA. Product responses may also require accessibility conformance documentation (VPAT/ACR). - Contract term: The sample terms provide an initial period of up to two years, with optional two-year and one-year renewals; DIR may extend the final renewal by up to 12 months. These are proposed terms, not an award.
