The Department of Information Resources (DIR) intends to release a request for offer (RFO) on Sept. 14 for maintenance and development of the statewide digital identity solution.
The current Texas Digital Identity Solution provides risk-based multifactor authentication and single sign-on access so Texas government organizations and their employees can easily and securely access authorized systems with a global unique identifier.
DIR’s BidStamp Vendor Information System (BidStamp VIS) allows prospective bidders and current vendors to create a profile that supports the solicitation response process. The high-level processes associated with the portal include vendor account/profile creation, creating vendor contacts, vendor account management and response submission.
In addition to the account management and solicitation response capabilities enabled by the VIS portal, vendors will be able to view open solicitations and additional information about DIR. Any vendor responding to any subsequent RFO will have to submit its response through the BidStamp VIS.
The deadline for submitting questions is 2 p.m. Sept. 26, and the deadline for responses is Oct. 26. The point of contact is Jared Fortenberry.
