The BDC service application can be deployed only if a supported version of SharePoint Search is installed. If a supported version of SharePoint Search is already installed and all the SharePoint Search prerequisites have passed, deploy the Business Data Connectivity service by using the Manage Service Applications page on the SharePoint Central Administration web site (Start > All Programs > Microsoft SharePoint Products > SharePoint Central Administration).

For this prerequisite check to pass, ensure that the Business Data Connectivity (BDC) Service exists and that the service is started  (Start > All Programs > Microsoft SharePoint Products > SharePoint Central Administration > Manage Service Applications). Also verify that when you click on the Business Data Connectivity Service link, the page loads without any issues.
