RE: Vendor Sole Source Justification Letter for e-Settlement Implementation

August 20, 2025

To whom it may concern, Saldemar Solutions LLC is currently providing support of the CCC Office of Business and Procurement Services (OBPS) with its ongoing optimization efforts including but not limited to the reengineering of procurement related processes for BPS, creation of procedures and related templates and forms, and identifying recommended ERP system enhancements.

Saldemar began this work as the MBE partner to EUNA Solutions to implement EUNA/Bonfire and streamline procurement processes. The EUNA award was the result of an RFP process. As part of this work, Saldemar has recommended enhancement of ERP functionality to improve Procurement service delivery.

OBPS has requested Saldemar’s support in the enhancement of ERP functionality of the ongoing continuous improvement process.

Saldemar is uniquely positioned to assist with this work, not only because of its existing work at OBPS in collaboration with EUNA, but also because of its over 20 years of experience in sourcing and contracts and ERP optimization in the government sector.

Sincerely, Olga Franceschini Fernandez Saldemar Solutions LLC | MBE/DBE Certified 220 S. Halsted, Suite 300 | Chicago IL 60661 | Cell: 312 493-1346 olgaf@saldemarsol.com mailto:olgaf@saldemarsol.com
