About this file

This is a Cost Detail attachment for a Request for Proposal (RFP) issued by the Minnesota Department of Information Technology Services (MNIT) in partnership with the Minnesota Board of Architecture, Engineering, Land Surveying, Landscape Architecture, Geoscience and Interior Design (AELS) and the Board of Accountancy (BOA) for a cloud-based licensing and compliance system. The RFP seeks a unified platform to manage application intake, renewals, reinstatements, firm licensing, continuing education tracking, audits, complaints and investigations, and board workflows across eight professional fields. The proposed solution must include role-appropriate staff and public portals, configurable rules and queues, document generation, notifications, and an accurate public roster. The contract term extends to June 30, 2027, with vendor implementation and project timelines aligned to this completion date.

Respondents must provide itemized cost proposals across six primary categories: licensing (with basis of calculation specified), support and maintenance including system updates and upgrades, customizations to achieve project objectives, implementation costs including professional services and training, vendor-hosted SaaS cloud costs, and other ancillary costs such as system integrations and data migration. All cost figures must be submitted as single dollar amounts without ranges or contingencies, with expenses pre-incorporated into costs rather than reimbursed separately. Vendors must provide cost breakdowns by year for up to five years and complete all fields in the cost table; fields marked as not applicable must indicate "N/A" rather than be left blank. The proposal also allows vendors to submit optional costs above the RFP scope separately, which will not be included in scoring evaluation.

REQUIRED RESPONSES

Complete the Cost Proposal below. All fields should have a response. If you need additional lines under a Cost Category, use the + under each row to add.

Provide a total for all costs associated with this RFP.

1. Do not alter the cost table below in any way, other than entering your cost figures. This includes, but is not limited to: adding line items, deleting line items, combining line items, adding/deleting/moving components of line items, etc.

If, despite this directive, you include a cost range, alternative cost estimates, contingency, or other figure that is not a single dollar amount, the State will regard the highest cost in your range or your highest cost alternative as your cost figure for that line item.

1. All of the boxes of the chart should be filled out. If your cost for a particular line item is $0, indicate $0 in the appropriate box rather than leaving the box blank. Do not indicate “TBD”/“To Be Determined” in any box.
