1.4 RFI Purpose
The BPR attachments/study of ONRR processes and systems contains certain vendor recommendations that ONRR has and may continue to consider as a possible solution, but ONRR does not want to be constrained by any single solution set and/or recommendation. In fact, this RFI indicates our intentions and expectations of future interaction with the commercial market, ensuring we continue to pursue holistic solutions for ONRR IT Modernization (IT MOD) that present the overall best value to ONRR's mission and operations. The redacted study is attached to assist vendors in gaining a deeper understanding of ONRRs operational circumstances, current systems, and IT Mod efforts to date.
1.4 RFI Purpose

The results of the RFI will allow the government to:
1. Obtain industry experience, best practices, recommendations, and lessons learned from the vendor community.
2. Better understand potential commercial solutions available to meet ONRR¿s needs.
3. Assist the Government in drafting informed requirements documents.
4. Assist the Government in developing an acquisition strategy.
5. The Government may meet with a limited number of potential industry partners who provide a comprehensive response to the RFI. These meetings will allow the Government to gather additional commercial market information.
