Minot State University (MSU) is seeking a commercial‑off‑the‑shelf (COTS) or software‑as‑a‑service (SaaS) scholarship management system to replace its current custom solution. The award will cover full design, configuration, integration with PeopleSoft Campus Solutions, TargetX, and PeopleSoft Financials, data migration, testing, training, implementation, post‑implementation support, and ongoing maintenance for a five‑year term. The contract requires hosting under the university’s domain, compliance with FERPA, HIPAA (if applicable), StateRAMP/FedRAMP security standards, Azure AD/Entra ID single‑sign‑on, and a robust audit‑log and reporting capability.
• Deliver a fully functional scholarship‑management platform (COTS/SaaS) with role‑based access, bulk data import/export, customizable workflows, and mobile‑friendly UI.
• Provide integration services (API, file‑based) to existing campus systems (PeopleSoft, TargetX) and ensure data residency within the United States.
• Supply comprehensive project management, documentation, training, 30‑day warranty, and 5‑year software maintenance/support with service‑level credits for SLA breaches.
