About this file
This is a certification document related to an RFP issued by the South Dakota Department of Education for the South Dakota Historical Society Press Website redesign. The RFP (26RFP19895) seeks competitive proposals for a modern website design and functionality to replace the existing legacy platform at sdhspress.com. The new website must improve accessibility, usability, content management efficiency, integration capabilities, brand cohesion, and technical compliance to better serve State staff and public audiences. Offerors may submit written questions for clarification to Rochelle.kenzy@state.sd.us with the subject line "RFP# 26RFP19895" by the deadline specified in the RFP schedule. Questions and answers will be distributed to all offerors who submitted Letters of Intent, submitted questions, or requested the Q&A materials prior to the proposal submission date.
The document establishes certification requirements for prohibited entities and communication protocols for the procurement process. All offerors and their agents are restricted from contacting state employees other than the designated buyer of record regarding RFP matters during solicitation and evaluation, with inappropriate contacts constituting grounds for suspension and exclusion from specific procurements. Offerors may not rely on any statements—written or oral—that modify RFP specifications or terms unless they originate from the official SD RFP Project Contact. Any modifications to the RFP will be communicated to offerors through the same channels used for Q&A distribution.
