The contract will have an initial one-year term with four potential one-year renewal options, available to all Oklahoma state agencies and interlocal entities.

The solicitation does not explicitly outline specific set-aside designations, but does include provisions for disabled veteran business enterprises and requires vendors to complete various compliance forms, including a Non-Collusion Certification and a Vendor Security Assessment. Potential bidders must comply with extensive security and data protection standards, including requirements related to HIPAA, FERPA, CJIS, and other sensitive data regulations. The state will utilize a comprehensive evaluation process that includes assessing vendors' cybersecurity capabilities, financial responsibility, and technical expertise across multiple domains. While no specific contract value is listed, the procurement suggests flexibility in project scoping, with individual project statements of work to be negotiated as specific needs arise. Federal funds may be involved in some project implementations, and the state reserves the right to terminate contracts for funding insufficiency with 15 days' notice. Suppliers must maintain a generic email address for receiving project invitations and comply with Oklahoma IT Standards, with OMES creating specific Statements of Work when individual project needs are identified.
