Please note: This is a Sole Source Notification. Minnesota IT Services (MNIT), partnering with the Department of Natural Resources (DNR), intend to enter into an agreement up to 12 months with Innovyze, an AutoDesk Company, for 2 new licenses of XPSWMM. The software to be purchased is a proprietary software only offered by one company. It is a popular software used by many municipalities and watershed districts in Minnesota. The software is used to model stormwater and flooding. There are other software packages that complete similar modeling; however, it is not possible to import an XP-SWMM model into another software and get the same results. Innovyze, an AutoDesk Company, retains exclusive ownership, copy rights, trademark of their proprietary XPSWMM. The State believes these services are not available through third-party entities deeming this a sole source purchase.
