2026-11-03

Minnesota State is requesting proposals from qualified vendors to implement a cloud - based ( SaaS ) placement management system that will support the full lifecycle of student experiential learning across field experience , student teaching , practicum , internship , and other supervised placements . The system must manage complex placement processes and provide tools to track student progress from initial onboarding through final evaluation . Additionally , the solution must support assessment workflow , maintain robust documentation to support accreditation requirements , and deliver meaningful reporting and analytics for institutional decision making . The platform should streamline communication between internal and external partnerships , relationship management , and notifications among students , faculty , and site supervisors in a way that is easy for staff to administer . Minnesota State prefers to select a vendor with a mature , fully developed product already in use by an established client base and capable of configuration to meet our needs without requiring development of a custom - built solution . The system must operate independently of Minnesota State ’ s internal IT resources and should require minimal technical support for successful implementation and ongoing use . Attachment A in " Buyers Attachments " lists headcount and program count .
