Software and SaaS Solutions

Contract 159768, effective December 8, 2025, was awarded to Granicus LLC by the Region 14 Education Service Center in Texas. This agreement resulted from RFP 25-S940, which sought to establish a national cooperative contract through the OMNIA Partners program to provide a broad range of Software and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solutions to public agencies. The scope of the contract includes cloud-based, on-premises, and hybrid solutions across categories such as Enterprise Resource Planning, Customer Relationship Management, Human Capital Management, financial management, business intelligence, and AI applications. Granicus is tasked with providing license procurement, implementation, integration, technical support, and training, while ensuring compliance with data privacy standards including GDPR, HIPAA, and FERPA. The contract term is three years starting October 1, 2025, with two optional one-year renewals. Pricing is managed through a ceiling price list, which Granicus may lower but cannot exceed. The award was based on a 100-point evaluation focusing on product availability and pricing, references and experience, and value-added services. The agreement includes comprehensive legal provisions regarding indemnity, insurance, and audit rights, and requires adherence to federal and state regulations, including the Buy America Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act. While Granicus is a primary awardee, the overall solicitation established a preferred vendor list including other suppliers such as Climb Channel Solutions, TeamDynamix, and Turnitin.
