RFP-RC-2021-026 - Design Services for Development of GIS Project for RCSD#1

Rockland County Sewer District No. 1 is requesting from qualified professional consultant firms, proposals for the development and preparation of a Geographic Information System (GIS) Program Design and Phased Strategic Implementation Plan or roadmap for the District that will detail step-by-step plan of action, including an implementation schedule for the selected design.

The firm must have demonstrated experience in relevant GIS Program Design projects that will include detailed documentation and diagrammatic illustrations including alternative approaches. The firm must also demonstrate experience in Phased Strategic Implementation projects that the GIS solution design was implemented.

Recommended third-party Software and upgrades, such as ESRI, and or hardware shall have budgetary pricing provided in the response.  The County will determine whether it is in its best interest to purchase directly using various government contracts.

To the extent that a third-party product is required, the vendor should explicitly state the name of any third-party products. For each third-party product, proposals must include a statement surrounding whether the vendor’s contract will encompass the third-party product and/or whether the County will have to contract on its own for the product.  If third-party software is purchased through the awarded firm, the County prefers that the software vendor serve as the administrator for all third-party software contracts. Finally, the vendor should provide proof that they have access to the third-party software source code (own or in escrow) and that the vendor has the ability to provide long-term support for the third-party software components of their system.
