About this file
This is a Single Source Posting Notification from the Minnesota Office of Higher Education regarding the renewal of membership with the Student Loan Servicing Alliance (SLSA). The Office of Higher Education seeks to renew its annual membership for 2026, with one unit required. The posting is open from September 18, 2026, through September 25, 2026, at 3:44:57 PM CDT. The membership must be delivered by September 30, 2026. This is not a competitive solicitation, as SLSA is identified as the only association capable of fulfilling the state's needs due to its specialized focus on state student loan servicing regulations. The membership is critical to ensure the state remains current with evolving regulatory requirements adopted and amended by multiple states annually.
Bidders must submit pricing for the annual 2026 SLSA membership and provide required attachments with their response. All bids must be submitted in U.S. dollars, and interested vendors must be registered as either a bidder or supplier to participate. The posting includes diversity and inclusion questions regarding small business certification eligibility under Minnesota's Small Business Procurement Program, though responses are for informational purposes only. The contact for this opportunity is Tyler Strickland at the Office of Higher Education, reachable at 651-556-0546 or tyler.strickland@state.mn.us. No specific pricing information, contract term length, or renewal options are detailed in this posting notification.

Event Description This is a Single Source Posting Notification; no solicitation documents are available for download. This posting is not a Request for Bid (RFB) or a Request for Proposal (RFP).
The Office of Higher Education intends to renew membership with Student Loan Servicing Alliance. This membership has a heavy focus on student loan servicing regulations that have been adopted by several states.
With several states adopting new regulations and amending existing regulations each year, it is critical that we stay abreast of requirements which we must comply. SLSA is the only association that we are aware of who can fulfill this need, as it has the most focus on state regulations.
