Description

1 April 2026 Addendum 3 for RFP 26-34 This responds to questions submitted by potential respondents. The University’s answers are shown in red. Amber Floyd Buyer, Procurement, and Contract Services Solution Strategy (COTS vs Custom vs Hybrid) 1. Does the University prefer a commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) platform, or will solutions that include a custom or hybrid (platform plus custom extensions) approach be considered equally? ▪ Everyone is considered equally. 2. How will the University evaluate tradeoffs between configurability (nocode platforms) and extensibility (custom development) in meeting longterm needs? ▪ We will evaluate based on our internal requirements for development support required for content creators. We have limited in-house developers and prefer low-code or no-code solutions to support campus offices with content creators. 3. Requirement #50 references a no-code platform. Is this a strict requirement, or will solutions that provide administrative flexibility through configurable components and CMS-driven interfaces also be considered? ▪ Please see previous answer. We prefer low/no-code but encourage everyone. We have some internal development support that can be utilized for content creators support. References 4. For the required references, will the University accept higher education web, portal, or digital experience projects that include complex integrations, accessibility, and ongoing support? ▪ Yes. 5. Will the University accept mobile application projects from regulated industries that demonstrate similar integration, accessibility, support, and scale? ▪ Yes. We realize not everyone has a Higher Education client. 6. Does “implemented the proposed solution and/or services” include implementation, integration, user experience design, accessibility, training, and ongoing support services? ▪ Section E is a request for references that have experience with your proposed solutions and products. Investment Level 7. Can the University provide a budget range or expected investment level for implementation and ongoing support over the five-year term? ▪ At this time, the University does not plan to disclose a budget range or expected investment level. Vendors are encouraged to propose their most competitive and transparent pricing based on the requirements outlined in this solicitation. 8. 8.
