SSA - Oral History end-to-end cloud based SaaS

The Idaho State Historical Society (ISHS) is seeking a sole‑source award to TheirStory, Inc. for a cloud‑based oral‑history software‑as‑a‑service platform that will manage, transcribe, index, and publish the Society’s extensive oral‑history collections. The solution is required to replace legacy systems, provide a searchable public portal, and support ongoing statewide oral‑history projects tied to the America 250 commemoration. The contract is a new three‑year subscription valued at $66,000, with the possibility of future renewals. • End‑to‑end SaaS platform covering interview capture, AI transcription, indexing, public‑access portal, and version‑control. • Unlimited user accounts, hosted hours, and dedicated support (account manager, advisory‑board seat, beta‑feature access). • Unique, patented functionality claimed by vendor; no comparable alternative SaaS identified, justifying the sole‑source exemption.
