- Identity Management, Governance, and RBAC Modernization Services

The University of Maryland Global Campus (UMGC) is seeking a qualified firm under solicitation 92337 to provide Identity Management, Governance, and RBAC Modernization services. The primary objective is to develop a strategic and technical approach for adopting Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) and Identity Governance Administration (IGA) capabilities across third-party applications. This effort focuses on aligning centralized identity management systems and authoritative identity sources, specifically remediating inconsistencies between Workday and Microsoft Entra ID, decoupling dependencies on PeopleSoft identity flags, and maturing Joiner, Mover, and Leaver lifecycle management. Key deliverables include modernization plans for the Originating Identity Provider and organization codes, an IGA governance and operating model, and a comprehensive strategic IAM/IGA roadmap. The contract is capped at a total compensation of 1,000,000 dollars and is governed by the University System of Maryland Procurement Policies and Procedures. Award selection is based on a trade-off where technical merit is weighted more heavily than cost, and price proposals are only requested from shortlisted offerors following a technical evaluation and potential oral presentations. The selected contractor must adhere to strict accessibility standards, including WCAG 2.1 Level AA and Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act, and maintain comprehensive insurance and indemnification coverage. Performance is subject to UMGC acceptance reviews, with a standard 30-business-day window for deliverable approval and payments typically issued on a net 30-day basis via Electronic Funds Transfer.
