About this file

This is an Attachment F Technical and Business Functionality evaluation matrix for a Contact Center as a Service (CCaaS) Request for Proposal (RFP #S-10700-00012867) issued by the State of Oregon's Department of Administrative Services, State Procurement Services on behalf of Enterprise Information Services, Shared Services, and other Authorized Agencies. The RFP solicitation was posted on March 6, 2025, with proposals due on April 7, 2025. Proposers must submit an electronic version of this attachment demonstrating how their proposed cloud-based contact center solution addresses 51 specific requirements across functional, technical, and support/services categories. The evaluation matrix contains 17 functional requirements (F1-F17) covering mobility, usability, reporting, call tracking, quality of service, data management, installation, scalability, forecasting, virtual customer assistants, scheduling, workforce engagement, surveys, and digital fax capabilities; 18 technical requirements (T1-T18) addressing data storage, export, performance management, knowledge base integration, disaster recovery, identity and access management, network optimization, developer tools, cloud-based architecture, tenant management, artificial intelligence capabilities, transcription, self-monitoring, sentiment detection, change logs, system security, and data residency; and 11 support and services requirements (S1-S11) encompassing provider location, implementation timeline, deployment, support formats, service level agreements, training, resource allocation, change management, incident management, and organizational change management. Each requirement is assigned a priority rating of High (3 points), Medium (2 points), or Low (1 point), with scoring based on responses of "Currently Exists" (2 points multiplied by priority rating), "On the Published Roadmap" (1 point multiplied by priority rating), or "Not Available" (0 points).

The evaluation framework requires proposers to complete only columns F and G of the scoring matrix, with column F containing the response selection from a protected dropdown menu that auto-calculates points in columns H and J. The maximum points available for each requirement are determined by multiplying "Currently Exists" (2 points) by the requirement's priority rating, with most functional and technical requirements rated as High Priority (maximum 6 points) and certain requirements such as Quality of Service (F6) and Predictive Forecasting (F10) rated as Low Priority (maximum 2 points). Critical technical requirements include US-based data storage and hardware located in the continental United States, compliance with Oregon's Enterprise Information Service Cyber Security Service Statewide Information Security Program Plan and Statewide Information Technology Control Standards, disaster recovery with 15-minute Recovery Point Objective and Recovery Time Objective targets, and multi-factor authentication and role-based access controls. The RFP evaluation emphasizes advanced cloud capabilities including generative AI integration, real-time transcription with sensitive data redaction, sentiment analysis with supervisor alert capabilities, and comprehensive change logging with export capabilities to central state sources. Proposers are expected to provide evidence of implementing these requirements in successful public entity environments or demonstrate clear roadmap commitments for future delivery.

Tab 1 - Instructions Contact Center Services RFP #S-10700-00012867 Attachment F - Technical and Business Functionality

Proposer shall complete and submit an electronic version of this attachment demonstrating how the proposed solution addresses the requirements. Please follow these instructions when completing Tab 2 – Scoring Matrix.

The sheet is protected to only allow entries to be made in columns F and G. Only selections made in Column F will be scored.

The Tab 2 – Scoring Matrix formatting, instructions, and scoring are as follows:

1st Column / Column A: Reference ID #

2nd Column / Column B: Requirement Title

3rd Column / Column C: Requirement Description

4th Column / Column D: Requirement Type

• Functional

• Technical

• Support and Services

5th Column / Column E: Priority Rating Rating for each requirement based on priority.

• High Priority = 3

• Medium Priority = 2

• Low Priority = 1

6th Column / Column F: Response For each requirement, select one of four Response options from the drop-down menu. These Response options are:

• Currently Exists – A selection of "Currently Exists" from the drop-down menu asserts that the described requirement currently exists in the Proposer's solution and is in successful public entity environment. Selection of "Currently Exists" from the drop-down menu equals 2 points multiplied by the requirement’s Priority Rating (shown in Column E). The highest score possible is shown in Column G, which is the selection of "Currently Exists" from the drop-down menu multiplied by the requirement's Priority Rating (shown in Column E).

• On the Published Roadmap – A selection of "On the Published Roadmap" from the drop-down menu asserts that the Proposer can meet this requirement. Selection of "On the Published Roadmap" from the drop-down menu equals 1 points multiplied by the requirement’s Priority Rating.

• Not Available – A selection of "Not Available" from the drop-down menu asserts that the Proposer cannot meet the requirement with the proposed solution. A selection of "Not Available" from the drop-down menu equals 0 points.

7th Column / Column G: Comments Space for Proposer to include any desired comments or clarifications for an individual requirement Response selection.

8th Column / Column H: Auto Calculated Response Selection Points An auto calculated cell showing the points consistent with the Response selection made in Column F.

9th Column / Column I: Maximum Points The maximum points available for each requirement, determined by the score for the Response selection “Currently Exists” multiplied by the requirement’s Priority Rating in Column E.

10th Column / Column J: Auto Calculated Points An auto calculated cell showing the points calculated from multiplying the Auto Calculated Response Selection Points in Column F and the requirement’s Priority Rating in Column E. The sum of all Auto Calculated Points is shown in cell J49.
