Script is a workflow automation solution that helps digitize paperwork and automate processes so that consistent and timely review, data collection and archiving, as well as efficiency eliminate time spent on processes that can be automated. At this time, the district seeks to implement process automation solutions for many regular processes and requests including, but not limited to, position add/delete requests, job share requests, half time requests, and permission to fill requests. The future uses of this solution remain to be determined, but will be decided with input from cross-divisional stakeholder groups and will be made with the intent of improving process efficiency and reducing time spent on comparable tasks.

The initial term of this contract will be for a 3-year period with the option of up to 5 one-year renewals. There is a 30-day termination for convenience clause included in this contract. All prices are firm against any increase for the first term. This contract will be reviewed and evaluated and may be renewed by the Superintendent, per the terms of specifications.
