The initial contract term spans two years (approximately August 1, 2026 through July 31, 2028) with options to extend for up to three additional one-year terms.

The addendum clarifies mandatory submission requirements, including that proposals must be mailed in physical format using encrypted USB drives (email submissions are not permitted), complete copies of Terms and Conditions pages must accompany responses, and vendors cannot submit alternative submission methods. No pricing information, budget allocation, or financial terms are detailed in this addendum, though the parent RFP indicates evaluation will be weighted on proposed solution (30%), pricing (25%), vendor qualifications and experience (20%), training and support (15%), computer programs and data requirements (5%), and value-added services (5%). The college is tax-exempt and vendors should adjust pricing accordingly.
