Integrated Assessment Software Platform
Solicitation # 27-009TM-32RFP
The Tempe Union High School District is soliciting proposals for an Integrated Assessment Software Platform to replace its expiring contract with SchoolCity. The selected system must enable the District to create, deliver, score, and manage both District and State assessment data for approximately 11,220 students across six high schools. The platform must align with Arizona Standards and integrate with the District's existing infrastructure, specifically the Synergy Student Information System and the DecisionEd data warehouse. Technical requirements specify a preference for web-based, vendor-hosted systems, though district-hosted options must be Microsoft SQL-based, and the system must be compliant with Active Directory, LDAP, SAML, or ADFS authentication. The award will be determined by a point formula system totaling 1,000 points, evaluating responsiveness, qualifications, and cost, with a minimum technical score of 70% required to proceed to price evaluation. The contract is intended as a multi-term agreement with cost escalators extending through fiscal year 2031-2032. Compliance requirements include adherence to the Davis-Bacon Act, E-Verify, and the Solid Waste Disposal Act, alongside strict prohibitions against the use of forced labor from the People's Republic of China. Proposals are due by January 14, 2027, via the OpenGov portal, and must be submitted in two separate volumes to keep the technical response and cost proposal independent.

The U.S. Government, through the Defense Threat Reduction Agency, intends to procure continued access to the PitchBook Software Tool on a sole source basis from Pitchbook Data, Inc, a Morningstar, Inc company, under the statutory authority of FAR 6.103-1, which permits noncompetitive procurement when only one responsible source exists and no other product or service will satisfy the agency’s needs. This requirement is for an annual subscription to a commercial, web-based market intelligence platform that delivers real-time access to private-market data, venture capital and private equity transaction histories, company profiles, financials, investor details, and industry analytics, with full online user access, data export and reporting capabilities, advanced search functions, and ongoing customer support—all without requiring installation or government-hosted infrastructure. Market research confirmed that PitchBook is the sole provider capable of delivering the specific combination of proprietary data coverage, analytical tools, and timeliness essential to DTRA’s mission, and no alternative solution would avoid unacceptable delays, cost duplication, or performance degradation. The anticipated contract is a Firm Fixed Price agreement with a base period and two optional years, and the acquisition is classified under NAICS 513210 with a size standard of $47 million. While the Government plans to proceed on a sole source basis, it is soliciting responses from other potential vendors through a combined Sources Sought and Notice of Intent to determine if competition is feasible. Interested parties must submit a capability statement in PDF format by July 29, 2026, at 12:00 PM EST, including their firm name, point of contact, phone, email, UEI, CAGE code, business size designation, and small business certifications if applicable, to Sharon Lightfoot at the designated email. Responses are for evaluation purposes only and do not constitute a solicitation for quotes or proposals, and the Government will not pay for submission costs. The final decision to proceed competitively or remain sole source rests solely with the Government, and any future competitive solicitation will be posted on the Governmentwide Point of Entry.
