About this file

This document is a Request for Information (RFI) from the State of Oregon, Bureau of Labor and Industries (BOLI) regarding a Case Management System. The RFI requests information from vendors on technical, security, and pricing details for a cloud-based or on-premises solution that can integrate with BOLI's Azure Government Cloud and meet federal regulatory standards. The RFI asks about the vendor's company background, experience, and proposed implementation methodology. It also inquires about integration capabilities, disaster recovery, data migration, security features like single sign-on and multifactor authentication, and ongoing technical support and maintenance.

The pricing section requests estimates for initial setup and implementation, licensing/subscription fees, maintenance and support, customization, and other costs over a 5-year term. Vendors are asked to provide hourly rates for implementation services and indicate if there are any rebate structures or pricing differences between cloud, vendor-hosted, and client-hosted options. The RFI seeks to gather information to inform a future procurement for these services, so it asks vendors to identify any contract terms or conditions that would incentivize or discourage participation.
