USG ERP 3rd Party Procurement Platform

The State of Georgia, through the University System of Georgia (USG), is issuing a Request for Proposals (RFP) to procure a comprehensive software-as-a-service (SaaS) procurement platform to support USG's transition to a modern, integrated procurement operating model. This procurement is being conducted pursuant to the State Purchasing Act (O.C.G.A. 50-5-50 et seq.) and is intended to establish a contract with a qualified supplier to serve the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia, which encompasses 25 institutions, Georgia Public Library Services, Georgia Archives, Public Records Center, and the Georgia Film Academy. The solicitation seeks qualified firms with demonstrated experience implementing large-scale procurement systems for complex organizations comparable in scale and sophistication to USG, the sixth-largest public university system in the United States. Key qualifications required include proven expertise in SaaS procurement platform deployment, system integration capabilities, and the ability to support a multi-institutional environment. The RFP was posted on May 7, 2026, with a proposal due date of May 22, 2026. Prospective vendors are strongly encouraged to thoroughly review the RFP documentation and attachments prior to submission to ensure their proposed solution can fully satisfy all stated requirements.

The RFP documentation does not explicitly identify set-aside designations, disadvantaged enterprise restrictions, incumbent vendors, current contractors, or budget ranges. However, interested vendors should note that any proposed solution must be capable of integrating with the existing infrastructure and technology systems currently in place across the USG's 25 institutions and affiliated agencies. The complexity of the University System of Georgia's organizational structure—encompassing multiple institutions with potentially varying operational needs—will likely be a significant factor in the evaluation of proposals. Without specific information regarding minority-owned, women-owned, or small business set-asides detailed in the available materials, all qualified vendors meeting the experience and capability requirements appear eligible to submit proposals. Award value and budget range information have not been disclosed in this procurement notice. Interested organizations should obtain the complete RFP document from the appropriate Georgia procurement portal or USG procurement office for comprehensive details regarding pricing structures, evaluation criteria, and any additional participation requirements or restrictions.
