Specifications include, but are not limited to: The Montana University System, Office of the Commissioner of Higher Education (OCHE) is considering a request to award a Sole Source contract to The Bookmark, a database that enables higher education institutions to comply with federal regulations and SARA policy to determine if their curriculum meets state licensure requirements for programs that lead to licensure in states where their students reside. The determination of this Sole Source purchase is based on the following research and analysis: OCHE reached out to members of WICHE, who also are the experts on SARA regulations. They only identified one other potential source for this type of information, the National Associations for State License Research. However, that resource does not have sufficient information to satisfy the needs of MUS institutions and is not regularly updated. This database only provides links to organizations, it does not have direct contact information, statutory or rural references to provide the depth of information necessary to expeditiously conduct this research.
