About this opportunity

The California Department of Technology (CDT) and the California Network and Telecommunications (CALNET) Program, in conjunction with the CDT Office of Information Security (OIS), have issued a Request for Information (RFI) seeking input from the vendor community on managed security services. The goal is to collect detailed product and service information to develop future contracting opportunities that align with the State's Cal-Secure Cybersecurity Strategic Plan. The RFI covers a wide range of security capabilities, including anti-malware protection, vulnerability management, incident response, security monitoring, cloud security, and more. Respondents are requested to provide information on how their solutions and services meet the requirements outlined in the five phases of the Cal-Secure plan, as well as implementation and integration details, and case studies. The RFI does not include any information about pricing, set-asides, incumbents, funding requirements, or other financial details, and is solely focused on gathering technical and administrative information from vendors.

This RFI is not a solicitation, and responses will not be accepted as offers or constitute a binding contract. The RFI emphasizes that all submitted documents will be considered public records under the California Public Records Act, and respondents are advised not to include any confidential or proprietary information. The intent of this RFI is to gather information to validate project objectives and requirements for possible future solicitations. The deadline for submitting responses is November 8, 2024, at 10:00 am Pacific Standard Time.

Opportunity text

The California Department of Technology (CDT) and the California Network and Telecommunications (CALNET) Program in conjunction with CDT Office of Information Security (OIS) are seeking input from the vendor community on managed security services in alignment with the State¿s Cal-Secure strategic plan. The CALNET Program has released this Request for Information (RFI) to solicit product descriptions, constraints, limitations, and considerations that the State may use in developing future bidding opportunities around cybersecurity solutions to support State and local government entities. The CALNET Program is requesting interested vendors provide critical feedback to the various components identified within the different tabs of the RFI Workbook. Please do not provide traditional marketing materials, as the State would like to understand how your solution meets the requirements identified, or how the requirements create issues or limitations for your service delivery. The CALNET Program and OIS will compile all responses and determine the best approach for the State to achieve cyber security compliance in accordance with the five phases outlined in the Cal-Secure strategic plan. The CALNET Program recognizes the time and resources associated with compiling and providing feedback to RFI efforts. Vendor input is critical for CDT, OIS, and the CALNET Program determining the best approach and contract vehicle for State entities to procure cyber security services.
