Request for Information-DoWEA PreK-12 Education Platform

The Department of War Education Activity (DoWEA) is issuing a Sources‑Sought/RFI to gauge industry capability for a single, enterprise‑wide education platform that will support its global Pre‑K‑12 mission. The government seeks information on integrated solutions that combine a Student Information System (SIS), Learning Management System (LMS) (including native and third‑party integration such as roster sync, grade pass‑back, analytics visibility, and reporting consistency), assessment tools, special‑education and student‑support services, and enterprise operational systems (ERP/finance, HR/HCM, facilities/CMMS, transportation, IT service management). Critical requirements include strong data interoperability via open APIs, unified or federated data architecture, near‑real‑time analytics, and AI‑enabled insights across instructional and operational domains, as well as support for multi‑channel communication, personalization, translation, and web/mobile experiences. Vendors must describe solution architecture (core components, deployment model—SaaS/PaaS, cloud dependencies), implementation approach, licensing impacts, and any dependencies or third‑party components, and provide high‑level pricing (per‑user, enterprise, tiered). Responses are limited to 10 pages (excluding appendices), must be clearly sectioned, and may include diagrams, tables, sample data schemas, and case studies. The RFI also requests interest in a future Industry Day (virtual, in‑person, or hybrid), preferred format, suggested discussion topics, and desire for one‑on‑one sessions; participation is voluntary and does not affect eligibility for any later solicitation.
