RFI Respondents for Bid.docx

The document is an RFI (Request for Information) issued by the State of Oregon, acting through the Secretary of State's Office, Elections Division, for a new Campaign Finance/Election Filing System to replace the existing ORESTAR system. The RFI seeks feedback from the industry on potential COTS, customized COTS, or custom-built solutions that can provide functionality for campaign finance filer registration, reporting, violations/case management, candidate filing, voters' pamphlet filing, public search, and various other components. Responses are due by October 28, 2024, and the new system must be in production by January 1, 2027. The Agency will evaluate the responses to determine the most advantageous approach for a future RFP process.

The RFI outlines specific functional, non-functional, and delivery requirements, including hosting options, security, availability, and data migration from the existing system. The RFI does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond, nor does it identify the incumbent vendor or current contractor or provide any information on existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The budget range or potential award value is also not included in the RFI.
