Technology Vendor Approval Process

  • Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools (CMS) is responsible for safeguarding staff and student data. Vendors must show they can protect this data before CMS buys or contracts digital platforms from them. Digital platforms that need access to staff or student data are assessed through the Technology Vendor Approval Process. All non-technology-related approvals should go directly to the Financial Vendor Application.
