Choose your GenAI journey for state entities
No matter what your GenAI need is, we have a path for you. Use the toolkit below to choose what best describes your need to start your journey.
My team discovered GenAI in a tool during procurement
If you’re in the middle of procurement and your selected vendor unexpectedly disclosed GenAI on the GenAI Reporting and Factsheet (STD 1000), there’s a process for you to move forward.
My team wants to buy or renew a tool with GenAI-supported features
This is called incidental procurement. Use this path if a tool your department already owns has added a GenAI feature. Work with your procurement team on any GenAI incidental procurement.
My team wants to buy a tool with GenAI as a primary feature
There’s a path to buy innovative tools built around GenAI. Use this path if the reason you’re buying a tool is because it uses GenAI. Work with your procurement team on any GenAI procurement.
