About this file

This is a Contractor Agreement to Comply with BIT Information Technology Security Policy document issued by the State of South Dakota for RFP 25RFP13437, which involves the South Dakota Department of Education's Division of Child and Adult Nutrition Services and the Bureau of Information and Telecommunications (BIT). The RFP seeks a qualified vendor to provide a web-based customizable financial management system for the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) to enable program operators to submit monthly bank statements and financial documentation for state review in compliance with federal requirements. The project timeline includes a customization phase from January to June 2026, a testing phase from June to September 2026, and a targeted system launch in October 2026. Key proposal submission deadlines are November 14, 2025 for Letters of Intent, December 1, 2025 for written questions, and December 29, 2025 at 5:00 PM CST for final proposals. The contract term is proposed from January 2026 through September 2028, with renewal options available for one-, two-, or three-year periods.

The RFP evaluation criteria allocate 100 total points across seven categories: cost and reliability (20 points), experience and qualifications (25 points), available resources (15 points), past performance (10 points), project locale availability (5 points), project management techniques (15 points), and ability to handle special constraints (10 points). Vendors must provide comprehensive cost proposals including itemized budgets for third-party software licenses, service desk support, disaster recovery plans, and hourly development rates for future customization. The RFP requires mandatory compliance with South Dakota BIT security policies, federal fingerprint-based background checks for personnel, and adherence to comprehensive data protection and cybersecurity standards. Contractors must certify they are not prohibited entities from China, Iran, North Korea, Russia, Cuba, or Venezuela and must disclose detailed information about their technology infrastructure, development practices, and security protocols. No specific budget range is detailed in the available documentation, and no set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly specified.
