Description
The State Board for Community and Technical Colleges (SBCTC) is seeking market information on a comprehensive Grants Management Solution that handles both pre‑award and post‑award processes for its 34 community & technical colleges.

• Integration requirement: bi‑directional data exchange with PeopleSoft (API or file‑based).
• User base: approximately 2,300 users across the system, including 5‑10 SBCTC administrators and 2‑3 per college.
• Volume: 600‑700 grant applications and ~3,000 invoices annually across ~35 grant programs.
• Deliverables: detailed solution description, cost breakdown (setup, annual fees, migration), VPAT, security assurances (FERPA), and optional demo materials.
