Key deliverables included a compliance maturity roadmap, the design of a scalable security architecture, a continuous monitoring program, and assessment readiness support. The procurement process included several modifications, such as the addition of a 2 million dollar Professional Liability insurance requirement and extensions to the proposal deadline. Evaluation criteria were weighted toward the technical proposal (40 points), respondent qualifications (30 points), and cost (30 points). However, on October 19, 2026, the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville officially cancelled RFP 09112026 via Addendum 3. This cancellation was prompted by changes in federal guidance that necessitated a reassessment of the procurement scope, with the university intending to issue a new solicitation once requirements are clarified.
