Problem Gambling Blocking Software

The State is seeking a vendor to provide a comprehensive software solution that blocks access to online gambling platforms for users identified as problem gamblers. The solution must integrate with existing network infrastructure, support real‑time blocking, provide reporting and analytics, and comply with relevant privacy and accessibility standards. The contractor will be responsible for design, development, testing, deployment, training, and ongoing maintenance of the system. • Develop or customize blocking software that identifies gambling sites and prevents access at the network level. • Integrate the solution with the State’s current IT environment, including authentication, monitoring, and reporting tools. • Provide user‑friendly reporting dashboards, analytics on attempted accesses, and compliance documentation. • Deliver implementation services, training for State staff, and a maintenance/support plan for at least 12‑month warranty period. • Ensure the system meets security, privacy, and accessibility requirements (e.g., NIST, Section 508).
