Re: Action Required from our Vendor Community – Jefferson Parish Transition to New

Financial Management System

Dear Jefferson Parish Vendor,

Jefferson Parish is pleased to announce that we are transitioning to a new Financial

Management System — an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solution by Infor Public Sector—

which will replace our current financial system. The new system is scheduled to go live on July 1,

2026, and represents a significant step forward in improving efficiency, transparency, and service

across our financial and procurement operations.

As part of this transition, Jefferson Parish will soon begin a phased migration from our

legacy Financial Management System to our new ERP. During this time, certain financial and

procurement activities will be limited or temporarily paused to shift workflows and data to the new

system. Specifically, this includes the issuance of new Purchase Orders, the awarding of new

contracts, and the processing of invoices for payment. We strongly encourage vendors to plan

accordingly to minimize any disruption to your operations.

Additionally, ALL VENDORS will be REQUIRED to register in the new Infor Supplier Portal

to interact with the Parish’s Purchasing Department to ensure continued eligibility for payments

and contract opportunities with the Parish. Through the new Infor self-service Supplier Portal, our

vendors will be able to better manage their profiles, respond to solicitations, track Purchase

Orders, and upload invoices, certifications, insurance documents, and licenses.

Registering in the Infor Supplier Portal is MANDATORY. To assist our vendor community,

the Parish Purchasing Department will host two Infor Supplier Portal training sessions—details

are below and in the attached flyer.

The following are noteworthy dates to prepare you for our transition to the new Infor ERP:

• May 8th – Supplier Portal Training at East Bank Regional Library (first of two training

opportunities)

• May 15th – Supplier Portal Training at General Government Building, Gretna (final training

opportunity)

• May 22nd – Final day for issuance of new Purchase Orders

• June 5th – Final day to submit invoices for payment

• June 13th – June 30th – full stop of accounting processes

We strongly encourage all vendors to submit invoices, payment requests, and any outstanding

documentation as early as possible, no later than June 5th, to help minimize potential delays.

Please be assured that every effort is being made to complete this transition as efficiently as

possible. We expect normal accounting operations to resume in early July as our Finance team

and Infor are committed to minimizing any disruption to our valued vendor partners.

If you have any questions or require assistance during this time, please contact our

Purchasing Department at 504-364-2690 or email My.Ngo@jeffparish.gov.

We appreciate your continued partnership and cooperation during this important transition.

Sincerely,

Cynthia Lee Sheng

Jefferson Parish President

PUBLIC NOTICE

Provide Landscape Architecture Services for the

Marrero Revitalization Project Design Services

The Parish of Jefferson, authorized by Resolution No. 148335, is hereby soliciting Statements of

Qualifications ((TEC) Professional Services Questionnaire) from persons or firms interested and

qualified to provide professional landscape architecture services for the Marrero Revitalization Project

located at previous municipal address 6613 Westbank Expressway, Marrero, LA (Council District 3).

General

Deadline for Submissions: May 12, 2026

The scope of work associated with this project consists of a neighborhood pocket park. Design of the

park should include resiliency features like site drainage improvements and green infrastructure to

manage stormwater and prevent flooding to reduce the risk of damage from future hazard events. The

design should also integrate green infrastructure into the park’s design; bioswales and permeable

walkways to mitigate flooding during heavy rainfall; use of resilient building materials to reduce future

storm impact; and use of native plant species to enhance soil stability and support local ecosystem.

Jefferson Parish anticipates the project will require the following supplemental services: civil engineer,

electrical engineer, traffic engineer, geotechnical services, land surveying, and resident inspection.

Compensation

Compensation for the required design services will be made on an hourly rate basis or a fixed fee basis,

or a combination of both, depending on scope and complexity of the work. The Parish reserves the

right to determine the method of payment (hourly or fixed) for each individual assignment.

For hourly rate work, the firm shall be compensated by the appropriate Jefferson Parish Department

on the basis of their certified and itemized burdened rate in accordance with guidelines established in

Attachment “A” to the Standard Professional Services Agreement for Jefferson Parish. A copy of

Attachment “A” may be obtained by calling the Jefferson Parish Department of Capital Projects at (504)

736-6833.

For fixed fee work, the fee shall be negotiated with the firm by the Jefferson Parish Department of

Capital Projects and shall be mutually agreeable to both parties.

Compensation for supplemental services, if required, shall be in the form of a “lump sum” or hourly rate

for each supplemental service, which shall be mutually agreeable to the Parish and the Consultant.

All costs associated with this project shall be subject to Jefferson Parish review and approval.

Minimum Requirements for Selection

1. The persons or firms under consideration shall have at least one (1) principal who is a licensed,

registered professional engineer, architect, or landscape architect in the State of Louisiana. A

Questionnaire);

3. The persons or firms under consideration shall have one (1) employee who is a licensed,

registered professional engineer, architect, or landscape architect in the State of Louisiana in

Questionnaire).
