About this file

This is a Cost Detail attachment for the Minnesota Department of Information Technology Services (MNIT) and Department of Corrections (DOC) survey and assessments solutions procurement. The document outlines the financial structure for implementing a secure, scalable platform that will support the complete lifecycle of surveys and assessments administered to incarcerated persons across Minnesota Correctional Facilities. The solution must enable design, distribution, and management of surveys; collection and automatic scoring of responses according to DOC-defined algorithms; integration with the DOC Operations Management System for structured data ingestion; and flexible reporting capabilities with role-based access controls. The cost detail provides the pricing framework and financial parameters that bidders must use to develop their proposals for this comprehensive assessment management system.

The cost detail establishes the financial terms and pricing structure that vendors must follow when submitting their bids for the survey and assessments solutions. The document specifies cost categories, pricing methodologies, and the financial breakdown required for evaluating vendor proposals. This attachment serves as the standardized cost template ensuring all bidders provide comparable pricing information, enabling the state to conduct equitable cost analysis across competing proposals. The cost structure allows DOC and MNIT to assess the total cost of ownership for the proposed solutions and make informed procurement decisions based on transparent, standardized financial information from all responding vendors.
