RFP 26-10 Consulting Services

This solicitation from Mississippi State University seeks proposals for consulting and professional services to support the implementation of a SaaS ERP system using Ellucian’s Banner platform. The project aims to prepare the university for a full deployment, including system configuration, staff training, project management, and readiness assessments, with an anticipated completion by October 2025. The procurement process requires submissions to be received by October 14, 2025, at 2:00 P.M., in the Office of Procurement and Contracts, with proposals potentially mailed to the designated P.O. Box. The contract value is estimated to range from $500,000 to $2,000,000, though specific pricing details, line items, or cost breakdowns are not provided in the available documentation. The contract emphasizes general administrative provisions such as the university’s status as an equal opportunity and affirmative action employer and reserves the right to waive informalities during the procurement process. Notably, there are no explicitly incorporated or referenced FAR clauses, detailed evaluation criteria, or award basis specified within the available documents. Furthermore, there are no attachments, exhibits, or supplemental materials listed, nor are there detailed requirements related to packaging, marking, inspection, or acceptance procedures. The scope of work is broadly defined, focusing on consulting services for ERP transition, but lacks detailed technical specifications or formal statement of work sections. Overall, the procurement appears to be a straightforward consulting service solicitation with minimal contractual or regulatory complexities explicitly outlined in the provided materials.
