SCHEDULE A – STATEMENT OF WORK

CONTRACT ACTIVITIES

HCD BACKGROUND

The Michigan Department of Technology, Management and Budget (DTMB) Office of Continuous Improvement (OCI) is responsible for the statewide HCD strategy. The purpose of the HCD strategy is to ensure the voice of the end users are reflected in our services and solutions. In this SOW, the SOM will establish a need for services through this specific statement of work, and proposals will be solicited from the prequalified Contractors utilizing a second-tier competitive selection process.

PROJECT-SPECIFIC BACKGROUND

The Michigan State Police (MSP) Criminal Justice Information Center (CJIC) has an eApplications system comprised of four applications, which directly support trooper activity. The four applications include eAICS (incident capture), eDaily (activity tracking), eCitation (citations or tickets) and eCrash (crash reporting). Under a separate, ongoing project, an updated application system will be implemented beginning in March of 2024.

CJIC currently operates an internal help desk dedicated to supporting the eApplications system. As we prepare for an expected increase in call volume coinciding with the rollout of our new main system, we are seeking a vendor to implement a human-centered design approach. Our objective is to enhance the help desk's policies and procedures, ensuring a more efficient operation. This approach should not only improve the overall user experience with the help desk but also facilitate the seamless integration of help desk insights into our problem-solving processes and system development initiatives. This RFP invites proposals for services that can meet these needs, with a focus on user-centric solutions and effective information integration.

CJIC is the state repository for data including traffic crashes, crime, criminal history records, pistol registrations, sex offender registration, agency specific data on the activities conducted by MSP enforcement members and other law enforcement information that is critical to the criminal justice community. This data is used by the public, government, and private business. In improving help desk operations, CJIC is looking to improve the quality of the data that is collected while also reducing administrative overhead and non-value-added time for troopers.

SCHEDULE A – STATEMENT OF WORK

CONTRACT ACTIVITIES

HCD BACKGROUND

The Michigan Department of Technology, Management and Budget (DTMB) Office of Continuous Improvement (OCI) is responsible for the statewide HCD strategy. The purpose of the HCD strategy is to ensure the voice of the end users are reflected in our services and solutions. In this SOW, the SOM will establish a need for services through this specific statement of work, and proposals will be solicited from the prequalified Contractors utilizing a second-tier competitive selection process.

Project Specific Background

The Office of Continuous Improvement (OCI) is in the process of launching a training program for state employees to build their knowledge and skills in HCD principles. The program aims to equip employees with the tools and techniques to design and deliver services that are more effective, efficient, and user-friendly. The program will be offered to all state agencies and departments, and it will consist of a series of workshops, online modules, and hands-on projects.

The program's curriculum will cover various HCD topics, including user research, prototyping, testing, and iteration. It will also incorporate case studies and examples of successful HCD projects in the public and private sectors. The program will be designed to be interactive, engaging, and practical, allowing participants to apply their learning to real-world challenges and opportunities.

OCI believes that the HCD training program will have several benefits for state employees and citizens alike. First, it will foster a culture of innovation and collaboration among employees, leading to more creative and effective solutions to service delivery challenges. Second, it will enable employees to better understand the needs and expectations of diverse user groups, leading to more inclusive and equitable services.

Finally, it will help the state to deliver services that are more responsive, efficient, and cost-effective, ultimately improving citizens' quality of life.

The training sessions are estimated to be two-hour blocks, however alternative session lengths to best meet course objectives are welcomed. The training should address one or more of the following topics:

Version 6/06/2023 Page 2 of 11 understanding of what requirements need an HCD approach, and how to achieve his incorporation of the user experience.

1.2. HCD Enhanced User Stories session: User stories are written for developers to outline what has been created and how users will use the solution. This course will help participants understand how enhanced user stories can aid developers as they reflect user needs in their solutions. This will include examples of enhanced user stories and applied practice using a case study.

1.3. Inclusive Design for Non-Designers session: Understand the traditional approach to inclusive design, and how organizations can go beyond minimum standards to cater to all user’s needs. Learn techniques and activities that can be added to projects to create inclusive solutions.

1.4. HCD and Enhanced Test Plans session: This will help participants learn to create test plans using human-centered design methods. Participants will learn how to ensure plans are written to ensure the most valuable user feedback and understand how to leverage these results for improved solutions. Participants will receive example templates and questions for an optimized user interaction.

1.5. Understanding the Value of HCD session: Incorporating HCD into our processes ultimately leads to an enhanced user experience and better decision making. Participants will learn why HCD thinking should be a priority and the benefits of an HCD culture.

1.6. Coaching session: Contractor will be responsible for providing short-term coaching assignments for leaders who manage IT development and implementation. The coaching assignments should be a separate, advanced offering provided by the Contractor.
