Assistive Technology Reading and Writing Tool Software

Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) is seeking proposals for a comprehensive software solution to support learners with reading and writing challenges, including those with learning disabilities and Emergent Multilingual Learners. The core requirement is an integrated Text-to-Speech, Speech-to-Text, and Word Prediction system designed to enhance literacy, writing fluency, and independent learning. The solution must be compatible with MCPS-supported digital environments, specifically Google Workspace for Education (Docs, Slides, Forms), web-based content via the Chrome Browser, PDF annotation, and the Canvas Learning Management System. The attached documents also detail extensive requirements regarding data privacy, security, AI governance, and contractor responsibilities, including background checks for personnel working in school facilities.
