DESCRIPTION

The State of Minnesota is seeking a vendor to modernize its education data management system. This modernization project aims to develop an integrated, end-to-end education data system utilizing both commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) and open-source software components.

The updated system will focus on enhanced data interoperability, robust data management, improved user experience, and comprehensive system support. The goal is to centralize submissions of educational data across multiple domains, including K–12 and early education student enrollment and demographics, district course offerings, student program participation (including programs not previously supported), course-taking, disciplinary incidents, attendance, and student assessment results.

This solution is expected to streamline data access for state and district-level users, as well as other stakeholders and the public, ensuring that information is timely, validated, secure, and meaningful.
