The Agency hereby provides notice that it intends to enter into a sole source contract per S.C. Code Ann. §11-35-1560 with Vendor for the following supplies, services, information technology, or construction:

The Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC), Department of Education Innovation & Student Life, in accordance with Section 11-35-1560(A) of the South Carolina Consolidated Procurement Code, intends to award a sole-source contract to Modern Campus, Inc. for a two-year renewal of the Modern Campus Continuing Education software, covering the remainder of the current contract term.

The Modern Campus Extended Education platform is a mission-critical enterprise solution that enables MUSC to manage, market, deliver, and track non-credit and continuing education programs across multiple colleges and departments through a unified OneMUSC learner experience. The platform provides advanced real-time analytics, including integrated labor market intelligence and job-demand data mapped to specific CIP (Classification of Instructional Programs) codes. This capability allows MUSC to align educational offerings with workforce needs and make data-driven decisions regarding program development, enrollment strategies, and market demand.
Modern Campus is uniquely positioned to meet MUSC's operational requirements because it is the only continuing education management platform identified that combines enterprise-wide administration with decentralized departmental control. While maintaining a consistent, branded storefront experience for learners under the OneMUSC umbrella, the platform allows individual colleges, departments, and units to independently manage their courses, registrations, reporting, and operations on the back end. Maintaining a seamless and uniform user experience across all colleges and organizational units is essential to MUSC's strategic goals, institutional branding, and learner engagement efforts. Furthermore, Modern Campus Extended Education is the only non-credit and continuing education registration platform identified that provides all six of the following critical features within a single integrated solution.  Replacing the Modern Campus platform would significantly disrupt current operations, require retraining administrative staff across multiple colleges and departments, necessitate redevelopment of workflows and integrations, risk losing historical reporting data, and create a fragmented learner experience. For these reasons, Modern Campus is the only source capable of providing the required functionality, operational continuity, and enterprise-wide user experience needed to support MUSC's continuing education mission.

This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. Any responsible sources who wish to identify their interest and capability to provide these services must notify the Procurement Officer at singlewa@musc.edu no later than October 22, 2026 (12:00 a.m. EST). Telephone responses will not be accepted. Upon receipt of the interested parties' notification, the Procurement Officer will determine whether to conduct a competitive procurement or proceed with sole source negotiations.
