**Posted:** October 26, 2026
**Respond By:** November 23, 2026
**Identifier:** RFP-0342
**NAICS:** 611710

The Kentucky Community and Technical College System is seeking an online proctoring solution for courses across its 16-college system.
- **Government buyer:** Kentucky Community and Technical College System (KCTCS), through its Office of Procurement to Payment Services.
- **Procurement:** RFP-0342 seeks an online proctoring service. No specific OEM, branded product, or named commercial vendor is identified; all proctoring models will be considered.
- **Service scope and scale:** Authenticate students and course enrollment; secure exam content and testing environments; deter access to outside resources; and document and report academic-integrity concerns. The service should support approximately 100–225 courses per semester, with typical exam sessions of about one hour and expected peak demand during midterms and finals.
- **Technical and support requirements:** Integrate with Blackboard Ultra across 16 colleges using one shared instance; support third-party assessments, browser-based access, specified browsers and devices, ADA accessibility, and 24/7 registration and technology support. Configurable authentication and security levels, data protection, and reporting are also required.
- **Pricing requested:** Firm annual service pricing for Years 1 and 2, plus a separate one-time implementation cost. The worksheet also includes seven entries for optional additional services or rates; these are outside the base service pricing and may be considered at KCTCS’s discretion. No product part numbers or fixed service quantities are specified.
- **Additional data requirements:** The example data-sharing agreement allows a consultant to process KCTCS employee personally identifiable information only for project purposes. It requires confidentiality, FERPA compliance, safeguards against unauthorized disclosure, incident notification, and destruction of data when the contract ends; third-party disclosure is prohibited. Either party may terminate the agreement with 30 days’ written notice.
- **Named organizations and products:** KCTCS and Blackboard Ultra are named. No specific proctoring OEM or vendor is named; “Consultant” is a generic role rather than a named vendor.
