II. PURPOSE OF REQUEST FOR INFORMATION
The City of Philadelphia (City) is embarking on a significant initiative to upgrade and modernize
its administrative business processes and related legacy technology systems that currently support
its business operations. As part of this initiative, the City intends to implement a new Capital
Program Management Information System. The City, through its Office of Innovation and
Technology (OIT), has issued this Request for Information (RFI) in order to solicit statements of
interest, capabilities, and Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) cost estimates from all Respondents
interested in, and capable of, providing commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) software as part of the
City’s solution.
Respondents are asked to provide OIT with information regarding their available COTS products
and solutions, subject to the following guidelines:
Identify only COTS products that are modifiable or configurable to meet specific City
requirements, and that focus on interoperability, reliability, usability, availability, capacity
and scalability
Present the software solution’s interoperability and operational requirements in accordance
with the International Organization for Standardization Open Systems Interconnection
(OSI) model
Include an architectural diagram of the solution with a description of the solutions
scalability; responses may include one or more models or solutions
Describe the configurability of the software to meet the specified requirements and
services.
Responses should include implementation, integration, and/or configuration services. If, the
software can be installed and configured only by the Respondent, that must be clearly stated in
the Response, including the reasons why that is the case.
Respondents may, in the City’s discretion, be invited to engage in discussions with the City’s
project team and/or demonstrate their products, services and solutions.
No contract will be awarded pursuant to this RFI. Anyone who does not respond to this RFI is not
precluded from responding to any future solicitation issued by the City. The City intends to
procure software for this project as soon as reasonably possible, in accordance with the City’s
procurement laws and practices for software purchases, which may include, but are not limited to,
the use of existing City contracts or certified cooperative purchase agreements. Respondents will
not be bound by the ROM cost estimates provided in their responses to this RFI in a future
procurement. The City also reserves the right to not procure any software.
