Web-Based E-Commerce Platform

The buyer seeks a comprehensive, fully integrated multi-user web-based e-commerce platform and requires the vendor to handle installation, configuration, training, and maintenance. The solution must deliver a single payment gateway, secure online payment infrastructure, and real-time integration with the buyer's Ellucian Banner system. Requested scope encompasses electronic billing, credit and debit card processing, electronic check clearinghouse communications, automated tuition payment plan management, electronic student and parent loan refunds, campus cashiering, departmental digital commerce, and centralized non-student accounts receivable options. The software must offer web-based usage, reporting, setup, scalability for future expansion, and flexibility to communicate with recommended credit card processors. Only USA-based onshore organizations qualify for eligibility, and the vendor will perform the work offsite. The buyer has not specified a fixed budget and requests proposals to determine the cost.
