5-Attachment B - Respondent Proposal Introduction and Solution Approach.docx

This is an Attachment B proposal guidance document from the City of Detroit Office of Contracting and Procurement (OCP) for Request for Proposal 549742, submitted on behalf of the Detroit Police Department (DPD) to procure case management and reporting software for the Detroit Police Department Victim's Assistance Program (VAP). The RFP seeks qualified respondents to provide technical or professional services for the development and implementation of this software solution. Respondents are required to submit proposals that remain firm for a minimum of 120 days from the due date, continuing thereafter until the respondent withdraws the proposal, a contract is executed, or the City terminates the procurement, whichever occurs first. The document does not specify explicit response dates, due dates, site visits, bidder conferences, award dates, or contract term and renewal options; these details are referenced as contained in Section 2, Statement of Work of the full RFP.

Respondents must include in their proposals a brief company description, commitment to performance in accordance with RFP requirements, evidence of required licenses or registrations, a detailed solution and approach to meeting stated requirements, a preliminary project schedule with completion dates, and a technical approach describing procedures to be followed with associated fees. The document provides structural guidance for proposal submission but does not address pricing terms, set-asides, incumbents, funding sources, or amounts in this particular attachment. Additional details regarding these elements are incorporated by reference to other sections of the complete RFP documentation.
