RFP 0078-02 Master Observation Database System (MODS)

The California Department of Technology (CDT), on behalf of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW), seeks a Contractor to implement either a low code/no-code configurable solution or a custom solution to develop and maintain a new Master Observation Database System (MODS) system that will provide the California Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB) program with the features and capacity to capture, store, process, update and share observation point data, and increase efficiencies by incorporating data into the database as element occurrences in a timely manner. The Contractor shall provide key services that include software development, infrastructure configuration, data migration, integration, training and maintenance & operations. MODS will replace the decades-old suite of databases and tools as a single database repository. The solution shall consolidate several currently disparate database systems and processes, improving the efficiency of the Biogeographic Data Branch (BDB) while allowing for greater processing capabilities of submitted observations.
