This RFP seeks to establish a multi‑category technology solutions contract for 1GPA cooperative members, primarily K‑12 schools and other public agencies in Arizona and nationwide. The contract will cover artificial intelligence products, hardware, software, audio/visual equipment, master clock systems, installation, maintenance, consulting, managed services, and equipment financing/lease options. Vendors may submit proposals for any single category or a combination of categories; the solicitation is not “all‑or‑nothing.” The award will create a framework agreement that members can use for individual purchases, with no guaranteed minimum sales. Proposals are evaluated on cost, breadth of offering, experience, marketing plan, and responsiveness.
• Categories include AI solutions, hardware (computers, servers, networking), software (SaaS, licenses), AV and master clock equipment, implementation & support services, consulting & managed services, and financing/lease options.
• Open to vendors capable of serving public‑sector customers nationwide; no pre‑proposal conference.
• Submission deadline Sep 17 2026 1:00 PM MST via OpenGov; questions due Sep 3 2026 5:00 PM.
• Award date not specified; contract replaces existing 22‑02PV contract expiring Dec 8 2026.
