Pre-RFPInformation TechnologyDetected Jun 19, 2026

Under Goal 5 of the strategic plan, Missouri State is exploring tools and platforms to centralize brand storytelling so that content created in one unit (for example, RCASH) can be easily shared by units like the Alumni Center or Office of Student Engagement. They are also considering ways to connect BearLink with the Athletics mobile app and add rewards features, and are planning a virtual hub for community partners to learn about and connect with the university. No specific platforms or vendors are named yet, and the language indicates they are still in exploration and planning, not implementation.This creates an opening for providers of digital experience platforms, content hubs, integration middleware, and engagement/rewards apps to advise on architecture, integration with existing systems, and pilot solutions that support cross-unit storytelling and partner engagement.

The work ties into broader brand awareness assessment and refresh efforts using an outside consultant, but these specific tools/platforms are still being explored.
