Comprehensive web-based platform that assists teachers, parents and students in managing and tracking missing assignments, foster student engagement and responsibility and offers targeted academic support through AI-powered tutoring services.

Roswell Independent School District is pursuing a sole-source procurement for a comprehensive web-based platform from Soar Innovations Inc. that integrates assignment tracking, student engagement tools, and AI-powered tutoring services, with proposals due July 4, 2026. The procurement is contingent on the sole-source determination posting for thirty calendar days without protest and subsequent written approval by the State Purchasing Agent — a decision point that has not yet been finalized as of the June 23, 2026 posting date.

The platform manages missing assignments, fosters student responsibility, and delivers targeted academic support through AI tutoring. The system includes real-time communication tools connecting teachers, coaches, sponsors, and families with students. The District asserts that Soar Innovations is the sole source capable of delivering this specific combination of services because no alternative vendor integrates assignment tracking, communication, student grouping, and AI tutoring in a single proprietary product, despite prior availability of individual services from other vendors.

The prospective contract value is $35,000 before tax over a twelve-month term. Soar Innovations Inc. is located in Englewood, Colorado, with Dr. Porter Cutrell as the primary contact. The District's Chief Procurement Officer is Charlee Merchant. The determination requires certification of compliance with New Mexico statutes and regulations, with signatures from the District's Chief Procurement Officer, legal counsel, agency leadership, and the State Purchasing Agent. The sole-source claim must survive the thirty-day posting period without successful protest to proceed.
