Digital Delivery workflows

The Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) has issued a Request for Proposal (MDT-315330-NO) seeking a vendor to research, develop, and document digital delivery workflows and best practices. The procurement spans multiple computing service categories, including advisory and research services, document management, IT staff augmentation, and transportation-related contracted services. Potential offerors must submit comprehensive proposals through the eMACS system, with key deliverables focused on developing digital workflow methodologies and documenting best practices for the department. The solicitation requires vendors to upload responses addressing offeror qualifications, provide detailed scope of services documentation, and potentially earn bonus points by certifying compliance with Executive Order 12-2016 on Equal Pay for Montana Women. Evaluation criteria include a rigorous reference check process where previous clients will rate vendor performance across six dimensions: project delivery, resource allocation, service knowledge, business relationship quality, communication effectiveness, and overall recommendability. The proposal submission window opens on August 15, 2023, and closes on October 3, 2023, with a contact point of Nicole Orta (norta@mt.gov, 406-444-9282) for any clarification or questions.

While no specific set-aside designations or enterprise restrictions were explicitly detailed in the provided documents, the procurement appears open to qualified vendors with demonstrated experience in digital workflow development. Vendors must be prepared to submit confidential information with a Trade Secret Affidavit and provide comprehensive client references that substantiate their capabilities. The reference evaluation can contribute up to 20 points to the overall proposal score, emphasizing the importance of documenting previous successful engagements. Although the exact budget range is not specified in the documentation, the project involves sophisticated computing and research services across multiple technological domains. Potential respondents should have robust capabilities in digital transformation, workflow optimization, and transportation technology integration. Vendors will need to demonstrate expertise in researching and documenting complex digital processes, with a particular focus on creating scalable and efficient workflow solutions for a state transportation department.
