Rocky View County is embarking on a transformative journey to enhance operational efficiency and streamline business processes. To pursue this goal, the County is seeking proposals from experienced and qualified consultants to conduct a comprehensive Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Requirements Analysis and Readiness Review, followed by the development of a Request for Proposal (RFP) document (Scope of work) in collaboration with the County’s appointed project team members, and to serve as an advisor for the ERP evaluation and selection process. This integrated approach aims to ensure a seamless transition towards modernizing the County's systems and processes. The primary objective of this initiative is to evaluate the County's current systems, functional processes, and infrastructure in-depth, focusing on assessing the County's requirements and readiness for ERP implementation. The assessment will delve into various aspects, including but not limited to, the County's technological capabilities, data management practices, operational workflows, and organizational readiness for change. By conducting this thorough evaluation, the County aims to gain valuable insights into its strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and potential challenges in new ERP adoption. The findings and recommendations derived from the ERP needs analysis and readiness assessment will be pivotal in guiding the County's decision-making process regarding the adoption of a new ERP solution. These insights will inform strategic decisions related to system upgrades, process optimizations, and resource allocations, ultimately paving the way for enhanced efficiency, transparency, and accountability within the County's operations. Furthermore, following the completion of the ERP Requirements Analysis and Readiness Review, the selected Consultant will spearhead the development of a robust RFP scope of work document that will be issued to the open market (through Alberta Purchasing Connection-APC) for the selection and implementation of a new ERP system. This RFP will serve as a comprehensive blueprint outlining the County's requirements, expectations, and evaluation criteria for selecting an ERP vendor. Additionally, the Consultant will serve as an advisor for the ERP RFP evaluation and selection process, ensuring alignment with the County's strategic objectives and budgetary considerations. This multifaceted initiative underscores Rocky View County's commitment to embracing innovation, optimizing resources, and delivering enhanced services to its residents and stakeholders. By leveraging the expertise of qualified Consultants and adopting a strategic approach to ERP implementation, the County aims to position itself for long-term success and sustainability in an ever-evolving digital landscape.
