DESCRIPTION
The selected vendor will partner to implement a secure and scalable enterprise AI platform, granting students, faculty, researchers, and staff across all institutions access to approved AI capabilities via a unified technology foundation. The platform must enable institution-specific branding and delegated administration, while adhering to current identity, security, and governance frameworks.
Key deliverables include providing a prebuilt AWS landing zone, foundational design components, validating the environment, recommending and implementing enhancements, and deploying and configuring the platform within a RIS-managed AWS environment based on the Boise State AI Platform (AgentCore Public Stack). The solution must also support multi-model AI integration, centralized model management, and the creation, management, sharing, and discovery of AI assistants.
Additional requirements consist of implementing AI interaction logging with suitable access controls for auditing and investigation, robust reporting and analytics within the baseline platform, enterprise data integrations (such as Banner, D2L, Microsoft 365, and data warehouse platforms), and enabling agentic AI capabilities for workflow automation and orchestration. The contract term will be one year.
