DESCRIPTION

The State of North Carolina is seeking information from qualified vendors on third-party software licensing services. This Request for Information aims to collect insights into best practices, strategies, and capabilities for managing the seamless transfer and continued use of third-party software licenses within technology solutions that are developed and implemented by external vendors.

The objective is to inform future procurement strategies and contractual frameworks to ensure operational continuity and legal compliance during solution ownership transitions. Solutions often include numerous third-party software applications licensed by the original vendor. Key concerns include unrestricted ownership and use of the entire system after contract completion, transferability of all licenses, and achieving pricing parity with initial vendor terms.

Feedback from this RFI will help mitigate risks such as service disruption, increased costs, or legal complications related to improper handling of license transferability and continuity.
