DESCRIPTION
The organization seeks a vendor to provide an online and remote tutoring platform supporting accessible, high-quality education for rural, first-generation, adult, working, and online learners. The platform must provide 24/7 on-demand and scheduled live tutoring in one-to-one or small-group formats, asynchronous tutoring, writing and assignment review, and synchronous sessions with audio, video, chat, whiteboard, file sharing, and subject-appropriate tools. It must also support students using low-bandwidth connections and mobile devices.
The institution requires a managed platform with system-level and campus-level administrative controls, granular permissions, integration with D2L Brightspace through LTI 1.3, and compatibility with single sign-on. The solution must support Windows, macOS, Linux, Chrome OS, current versions of major browsers, and native or responsive delivery on iOS and Android. It must provide standard-format data exports through CSV or API, including usage, outcomes, and session data.
The platform must maintain at least 99.5% monthly uptime excluding pre-approved maintenance windows, with defined support response times by severity level. Vendors must demonstrate the ability to support concurrent peak usage across approximately 270,000 or more students. The contract term will be one year.
