The Washington State Office of Financial Management (OFM) is issuing a Request for Information (RFI) to gather input from vendors on the development of a new grant tracking database. OFM aims to track grant-related data and information through a management database to report out relevant information and ensure the state's objectives around acquiring federal funds are being met. The selected contractor(s) shall develop a grant tracking and management database with features including public-facing accessibility, data visualization capabilities, accessibility for state agencies and OFM staff, and the ability to pre-populate with existing IIJA grant tracking data. The RFI requests information on pricing, value-added services, vendor experience, service delivery and customer service approaches, onboarding processes, and technology requirements. The resulting database should allow both OFM and state agencies to share funding opportunities and grant application decisions/results, with the ability to integrate with agencies' internal systems. Input fields must allow users to fill out and export data for reporting purposes. Responses to the RFI are due by October 15, 2024 and will be used to inform future solicitations. The RFI does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. It also does not mention any incumbent vendors or current contractors, nor does it provide any information on existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The RFI does not list any potential award values or budget ranges for the project.
