The vendor required to provide solutions to improve the agency’s ability to utilize online notary abilities with e-sign tools.
- E-signature solution that will provide:
• Basic (click-to-sign) electronic signature (BES) — this type of electronic signature is sometimes called “standard” or “simple.”
• It does not use digital certificates assigned to an individual signer, opting instead to collect metadata about each signer, which is typically protected with a single digital certificate at the completion of the signing ceremony.
• This ensures that the document cannot be tampered with or altered.
• Some countries have additional laws that may accept the basic signature for specific use cases, even if there are national regulations in place that indicate the need for a digital signature.
- Contract timelines:
• Use this new solution for remote online notarization as soon as possible.
• The e-signature general feature will begin on September 27, 2026, at the end of the existing contract.
- Transition services
• Transition services which may include analysis, data migration, configuration, implementation services, consulting services, and returning data to pers in a suitable format via electronic submission.
- Contract Period/Term: 4 years
- Questions/Inquires Deadline: January 20, 2026
