Purchasing questions

How can our agency purchase eCourtDate?
You can work with eCourtDate directly, purchase through a supported reseller, use an eligible contract vehicle, participate in an applicable statewide program, or invite us to your competitive procurement process. Contact us if you need help identifying the available options for your agency.
How is the Minnesota contract different from the Texas OCA program?
The Minnesota state contract covers mass notification and alerting services for eligible Minnesota agencies and CPV members. The Texas OCA program covers court reminders and related authorized uses. Each has its own scope, eligibility, and purchasing or participation process.
Does our agency need to issue an RFP?
The appropriate process depends on your agency’s requirements and the proposed purchase. Your procurement team determines whether a direct purchase, existing contract, or competitive process applies. We can provide information about the purchasing options described on this page.
Can a reseller purchase use a cooperative contract?
Some reseller purchases may use an eligible contract vehicle. The specific seller, contract, covered products, and ordering requirements need to be confirmed together.
What should we include when requesting a quote?
Tell us your agency, state, intended products or scope, preferred purchasing method if known, and target timeline. If you are still exploring, describe your needs and we can start there.
Can we contact you before choosing a purchasing method?
Yes. Use our contact form for general purchasing questions, even if you have not selected a reseller, contract vehicle, or procurement process.
What documents can eCourtDate provide for our purchasing file?
A dated published price list, the security package (pre-completed CAIQ and SIG questionnaires and a penetration test summary under NDA), the accessibility conformance summary with the full signed VPAT on request, a Data Processing Agreement, and standard vendor forms such as a W-9 and certificate of insurance. eCourtDate does not claim sole-source status; your procurement team determines which purchasing process applies.
When should we start if we want this in next year’s budget?
Before your budget request is due. We provide a written quote for your budget request on request. Tell us your fiscal year and target go-live and the quote is written to fit them.
