About this opportunity
Tarleton State University, a public higher education institution in Texas, has issued a Request for Information (RFI) for a Student Information System (SIS) that can integrate with its existing Workday and FAMIS systems. The key objectives of the RFI are to identify and explore the higher education technology market, understand the functional capabilities and technical architecture of proposed SIS solutions, evaluate the vendors' experience and expertise in implementing SIS at public higher education institutions similar to Tarleton, assess the vendors' ability to provide seamless integration with Workday and FAMIS, and gather information on implementation approaches, timelines, and estimated costs. Tarleton is not seeking to enter a purchasing agreement at this time but rather to inform long-term planning and strategy. Responses to the RFI are due by 3:00 PM Central Time on Friday, August 30, 2024.
The RFI does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. Tarleton is currently using Ellucian Banner as its cloud-hosted SIS and the SalesForce platform with the TargetX application for prospective student recruiting, which will be replaced by the SalesForce Marketing Cloud in Fall 2024. The RFI does not mention any incumbent vendors or provide any budget ranges, as this is an information-gathering exercise and not a purchasing proposal. Tarleton is seeking to understand the market and availability of integrated SIS solutions that can seamlessly integrate with the university's existing systems.
