AI Enabled Teaching Tool for Engineering Courses

Texas A&M University’s College of Engineering seeks a vendor to supply an AI‑enabled teaching platform that will support faculty in creating, delivering, and assessing engineering courses. The solution must integrate with Canvas via LTI 1.3, provide adaptive assessment capabilities, offer retrieval‑augmented‑generation (RAG) tutoring, and ensure full ADA/Section 508 compliance, including OCR for engineering‑specific graphics. The contract is a one‑year term with two optional one‑year renewals, and the university requires extensive compliance documentation (TX‑RAMP, SOC 2 Type II, HECVAT, VPAT), a state‑mandated subcontracting plan for contracts ≥ $100 K, and specific insurance coverages. • Deliver a web‑based or cross‑platform AI teaching tool with adaptive assessments and RAG tutoring. • Integrate securely with Canvas LMS (LTI 1.3) and provide REST APIs for analytics. • Meet FERPA, WCAG 2.1 AA, Section 508, and Texas‑specific security standards, and submit required compliance artifacts. • Provide 100 % Net 30 payment terms, insurance, and a Vet HUB subcontracting plan if subcontractors are used.
