DEPARTMENT OF GENERAL SERVICES - CENTRAL PROCUREMENT OFFICE REQUEST FOR INFORMATION RFI # 32110-26041 5/4/2026 1. STATEMENT OF PURPOSE: The State of Tennessee, Department of General Services - Central Procurement Office issues this Request for Information (“RFI”) for the purpose of gathering information on AI Contract and Task Management solutions that can enhance our procurement processes and improve contract oversight. We appreciate your input and participation in this process. 2. BACKGROUND: The Department of General Services - Central Procurement Office is dedicated to enhancing efficiency and effectiveness in its procurement processes. In an effort to streamline contract management, the Department recognizes the need for an advanced solution that leverages artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities. As the volume and complexity of contracts continue to grow, traditional methods of contract oversight and task management are increasingly inadequate. The adoption of an AI-driven contract and task management solution is essential to ensure that critical elements such as service level agreements (SLAs), renewal dates, and report deadlines are effectively monitored and managed. The proposed solution must provide robust features that facilitate the extraction and categorization of key contract elements using natural language processing (NLP). This functionality will enable contract specialists to maintain a high level of accuracy and efficiency in their operations.

Tennessee Central Procurement Office in Tennessee is using this solicitation to procure consulting work. Public agencies typically advertise this kind of work as a Request for Proposals (RFP), evaluating bidders on a combination of qualifications, technical approach, and price. Bidders responding to a consulting solicitation in Tennessee are generally expected to provide proof of liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage, hold any state license or trade certification required for the scope of work, and post performance and payment bonds for contracts above the agency's threshold.
Contracts of this type are usually awarded under the issuing agency's published procurement rules, with bid bond, performance bond, and reference requirements set in the solicitation documents. PublicBidSearch indexes this solicitation alongside other open bids in Tennessee so contractors and vendors can compare active opportunities by category, agency, or location without monitoring each procurement portal individually.
To submit a proposal for this RFP, review the full solicitation documents for Tennessee Central Procurement Office's exact scope of work, submission format, and any mandatory pre-bid meeting or site visit. Responses must be received before the June 23, 2026 deadline — public agencies routinely reject late submissions regardless of cause. Confirm how the agency accepts responses — through an electronic procurement portal, as a sealed hard-copy bid, or by email — because the required method varies by agency and a non-conforming submission can be disqualified. Direct questions about scope or specifications to ryan.gaddis@tn.gov before the agency's question cut-off date. Vendors that have not previously contracted with Tennessee Central Procurement Office should confirm whether registration on the agency's vendor system is required to be eligible for award.
