SLCGP Procurement Process

• We will reach out to MiSecure for each district and obtain licensing based on the actual count of machines per districts (see MiSecure Wiki) MISecure and Crowdstrike Falcon Complete ISD - Wide Implementation

• All district counts are completed and recorded in the sheet linked below under the Totals tab (in the column highlighted in green) → https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1md64A6DkW80w6oPW5VoWhCJ7er6_Nk-bi9N2rOtFZYU/edit?gid=260014243#gid=260014243

• We will send an email to MiSecure contacts (including the director) with an email listing a request for a quote for each district, the total requested and the product being Crowdstrike Falcon Complete 2y license agreement.

  • Ensure that for each request they understand the quotes are to be made out to each district with that districts contact information/address/business office email and superintendent email.
