How to respond to Alaska DEED’s Civics and Comparative Government OER RFI
What Alaska DEED is seeking
The Alaska Department of Education and Early Development is seeking information about open educational resources for civics and comparative government education. This is a request for information, not a stated purchase solicitation, so the notice does not establish that the agency will buy a particular product or service.
The RFI may interest organizations that develop, provide, or support open educational resources in these subject areas and want to share relevant information with the department.
Deadline and what it means
The listed deadline is November 8, 2026, at 3:59 AM ET. The notice was published October 16, 2026.
Submit your response as the notice specifies and before the deadline. Because this is an RFI, treat it as a request for information rather than a stated bid to win a contract.
Who this opportunity may suit
This opportunity may suit education publishers, curriculum developers, and other organizations with relevant open educational resources for civics or comparative government education. The notice does not provide a required quantity, location details, or additional eligibility requirements.
How to review and respond
Open the solicitation through “View original source” to reach Alaska Online Public Notices. The posting and its document list are public, with no account needed.
Read the notice and any listed documents, then follow the response instructions in the notice. Alaska has no central e-bidding system, so use the submission method stated there.
Prepare a clear, useful response
Explain what resources you offer, which civics or comparative government topics they address, and how educators can use them. Describe their open-resource terms and any supporting materials or implementation help you provide, if relevant.
Keep claims specific and easy to verify. Follow the notice’s requested format and questions, and allow time to check that your response is complete and submitted before the deadline.
