EGB FY26 REQ 13163570, End Point Monitoring

The State of Colorado's Office of Information Technology is issuing an RFI for market research on endpoint web monitoring solutions, with vendor responses due August 12, 2026 at 1:30 p.m. This is explicitly a market-research RFI and will not result in a contract award; it will inform a subsequent formal solicitation.

The State seeks to evaluate vendors and products capable of monitoring web traffic and internet activity across endpoint devices, including laptops, desktops, smartphones, tablets, and virtual machines used by state employees. The primary objective is to conduct product demonstrations with selected vendors to understand the endpoint web monitoring domain.

Vendors must complete a Google Form to be considered for product demonstrations; not all respondents will be selected, and participation will be determined at the sole discretion of internal stakeholders based on the value proposition offered. Vendor responses may include formal documentation, white papers, and marketing materials submitted through BidNet Direct, though such submissions are optional. The State requests non-binding pricing information to understand market costs and pricing models, asking vendors to describe their licensing structures — whether per-user, per-endpoint, or based on data volume.

All RFI responses are considered confidential until after a subsequent award is made or the State determines not to pursue further solicitation, at which point responses become subject to the Colorado Open Records Act. Respondents may request that certain portions be classified as trade secrets or proprietary information, provided such requests are clearly separated, justified, and accompanied by both redacted and unredacted versions. Submission of pricing information and formal proposals are entirely voluntary. Questions should be directed to Mike Whalen at Mike.Whalen@state.co.us.
