The Maryland Department of Transportation's State Highway Administration (SHA) is seeking proposals for an AI Workshop with NetApp (Solicitation No. SBR-J02P4600020) to help SHA design an AI roadmap and determine how to benefit from the unstructured data stored on NetApp storage clusters. The workshop requires 2 days of on-site consulting and 1 day of remote consulting services from NetApp. The desired output includes recommendations on what to model/test, necessary steps, any additional equipment required, and the AI skills needed by SHA's team to achieve their goals. Pricing and the vendor's status as an authorized NetApp reseller will be key evaluation criteria. Proposals are due by February 12, 2024 at 2:00PM and must be submitted through the state's eMMA e-Procurement system.

The contract has an unknown award value, as the pricing terms, set-asides, funding requirements and sources, and other salient financial information are not provided. There is no incumbent vendor information included in the solicitation documents.
