This RFI is being sought strictly for the purpose of gaining (No Response Required) knowledge of products and services available and their corresponding costs. This RFI should not be construed as intent, commitment, or promise to acquire services, supplies, or solutions offered. No contract will result directly from any response to this RFI. Information submitted in response to this RFI will become the property of Lewisville. LISD will not pay for any information herein requested nor is it liable for any costs incurred by the vendor (s). After information is reviewed by the Technology Committee, services will be prioritized. LISD may schedule presentations after short list is approved.
