SUMMARY


The agency seeks a vendor to implement an Ed-Fi finance data collection and EDU-aligned analytics solution using its existing integrated collection system as the authoritative submission platform. The one-year engagement requires certified Ed-Fi API publishing, automated validation, centralized workflows, and demonstrated experience with government finance analytics.

DESCRIPTION


The agency is seeking a vendor to implement an Ed-Fi finance data collection and EDU-aligned analytics solution. The solution must use the agency’s existing Integrated Data Collection System as the sole authoritative mechanism for intake, validation, certification, and reporting-window management for finance submissions. It must replace email-based intake with centralized submission and certification workflows, automate validation against a state-managed Chart of Accounts and configurable rules, and preserve agency governance, interoperability, auditability, and autonomy.

The selected solution must publish certified finance data to state-level and district-level Ed-Fi ODS/API instances through the Ed-Fi API. All financial reports, dashboards, extracts, and analytics must be generated exclusively from EDU-aligned Enable Data Union analytics structures, supporting interoperability with other education data domains.

Qualified vendors must demonstrate at least two successful debt-based analytics implementations built on Ed-Fi-shaped data and consistent with EDU-style dimensional modeling. They must also demonstrate compliance with applicable Polyform Non-Commercial license terms, experience integrating with statewide data collection platforms without creating parallel submission pipelines, and experience supporting role-based digital certification workflows in government fiscal reporting. The contract term will be one year, and questions are due by September 2, 2026.
