Description

AI Generated

The Capital Region Planning Commission seeks a vendor to design and deploy a digital Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy platform. The requested scope includes creating a branded website optimized for multiple devices, migrating agency source content, building reusable data structures and interactive maps or dashboards, enabling non-technical staff content management, and incorporating an AI-enabled natural-language query tool. Work must be performed offsite, and the contract term is one year. Eligible offerors must be onshore entities operating in the USA. Proposals can be submitted digitally via email or online, and all questions must be submitted no later than October 14, 2026. The text notes a current contract limit of $14,000 funded under an Economic Development Administration financial assistance award, though CRPC is seeking formal budget proposals from vendors. Evaluation criteria details and selection procedures are noted as included in the full RFP document.
