This document is an Exhibit B Qualification Affirmations form for a Washington State contract opportunity involving the School Apportionment System Modernization project. The document outlines minimum and additional desired qualifications for consultants seeking to participate in the Request for Proposal (RFP No. 2026-12) for the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI). The primary objective is to modernize the School Apportionment Financial Systems (SAFS) into the School Apportionment System for Quality, Accountability, Transparency, and Calculations Hub (SASQUATCH), which is the primary tool for allocating operating revenue across Washington's public K-12 education system.

The qualification affirmations require consultants to be licensed to do business in Washington or provide a written intent to become licensed within 30 calendar days of selection as the Apparent Successful Bidder. Consultants must also demonstrate experience developing at least one sizeable financial system using a specific architectural approach. Additionally, the RFP desires consultants with experience in developing school district data collection systems, budget and accounting reporting, or school district funding distribution systems. Proposals that do not meet the minimum qualifications will be rejected as non-responsive and will not receive further evaluation or scoring.
