WSFCS RFP Chromebook Monitoring

This state and local contract opportunity is a Request for Proposals (RFP) issued by the Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Schools (WS/FCS) in North Carolina for a cloud-based Chromebook management and student safety monitoring solution. The selected vendor will provide a platform that uses artificial intelligence to scan student emails, chat messages, and other online material in real-time for indicators of self-harm, violence, or sexual behavior. When potential issues are detected, alerts will be sent to district and school-based teams consisting of security personnel, administrators, and counselors to address the concerns. The scope of work includes the ability to monitor and manage classroom Chromebooks, report on inappropriate or potentially harmful student communications, and integrate with the district's student information system. Proposals will be evaluated based on the vendor's qualifications and ability to meet these requirements. The contract will be awarded for an initial term of three years, with the possibility of extension.

The RFP outlines pricing terms and set-asides for historically underutilized businesses. Respondents must comply with these requirements. The incumbent vendor or current contractor is not specified in the provided information, and the budget range for the contract is also not provided.
