This is a Scope of Work (SOW) verification document for the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Cloud Migration project. The project involves building, deploying, and managing a Microsoft Azure cloud environment to support OCTA's desktop and enterprise GIS systems. The contract term is three and one-half (3.5) years, with a total budget allocation of $380,000. The scope encompasses the migration of existing GIS infrastructure from on-premises systems to a cloud-based Azure platform, ensuring continuity of service and enhanced system performance. The document outlines verification requirements to confirm that proposed solutions meet OCTA's technical specifications and operational requirements for the cloud migration initiative.

The verification documentation establishes the criteria and methodology for assessing consultant proposals against OCTA's defined GIS cloud migration objectives. Key focus areas include the consultant's ability to demonstrate technical expertise in Microsoft Azure environments, migration planning and execution capabilities, and ongoing management and support services. The project funding of $380,000 is designated for the complete implementation and operational support throughout the 3.5-year contract period. This initiative represents OCTA's strategic effort to modernize its GIS infrastructure by transitioning to cloud-based solutions that offer scalability, improved maintenance, and reduced capital expenditures for IT infrastructure management.
