Organization overview and procurement intelligence available on paid plans.
A government authority in Rhode Island is seeking a vendor to provide workstation-class AI system services in support of advanced AI laboratory initiatives. The awarded vendor will be responsible for furnishing, assembling, delivering, and warranting a high-performance workstation-class system suitable for large language model research, including training, fine-tuning, benchmarking, and deployment of custom AI models.
The required configuration must be capable of hosting and operating four Nvidia RTX 5090 GPUs simultaneously, with the workstation delivered with two RTX 5090 GPUs installed and configured. The system must include adequate cooling, power delivery, and chassis capacity to sustain demanding multi-GPU workloads such as model training, inference, and stress testing.
