The State of California is seeking a vendor to deliver an integrated solution designed to improve student attendance and engagement at the student, school, and district levels. The desired solution must include advanced data analytics with real-time reporting, offering granular visibility to track attendance and identify trends, particularly focusing on critical transition years such as Transitional Kindergarten, Kindergarten, 6th grade, and 9th grade. Strategic dashboards should be capable of disaggregating data by student subgroups to support informed decision-making and resource allocation.

Key functionalities also include the deployment of evidence-based interventions, such as a tiered communication strategy utilizing mail, SMS, and digital channels, and the alignment of truancy notifications with state law using positive, restorative messaging to encourage family partnerships. The solution should leverage predictive modeling to tailor interventions for maximum effectiveness and implement targeted outreach during periods of historically low attendance or for specific absence reasons.

Additionally, the solution must provide robust family support, including multilingual access and resource connection, addressing barriers like food insecurity, housing instability, and transportation. Professional learning is a crucial component, with the vendor facilitating expert-led sessions on tiered attendance strategies and providing access to a professional learning library and a collaborative network of practitioners to foster sustainable growth. Questions regarding this opportunity must be submitted by January 30, 2026.
