RFP 19-022 NM - PMO Program & Project Lifecycle Management Platform

PROJECT VISION AND OBJECTIVES:  
Vision:
CDOT envisions the solution to be comprised of one or more interoperable tools for different capabilities that can be implemented over time through configuration, not custom development.
Ideally, the solution will become an enterprise-wide platform to support the complete Program and Project Management Lifecycle from end-to-end, supporting multiple levels of CDOT statewide stakeholders across functions, regions and headquarters.
Objectives:

1. Identify a solution that best supports the Level 1 Process Areas with an initial implementation priority on Project Level processes.
2. Support a dispersed, multi-disciplinary team coordinating on tasks and deliverables across CDOT’s program-project lifecycle.
3. Ability to group and aggregate projects, identify program needs, prioritize projects and distribute funds at various levels. Increase the ability to move projects into “what-if” scenario planning and have a flexible “sandbox” space for modeling options.
4. Support ability to proactively manage performance of programs and projects through metrics-based dashboards, aggregating projects at various portfolio levels (i.e., regional, statewide, other).
5. Allow for the creation of reliable forecasts (e.g. costs, resources), utilizing data from across the program and project lifecycle, to make strategic and tactical decisions.
6. Increase accessibility to required information, to support day-to-day operations and decision making, both at a program and project level.
7. Create a centralized and standardized way to enable efficient and effective process workflow, collaboration, and data entry at the program and project level. Focus on usability and accessibility.
8. Support data and process continuity across the program and project lifecycle. Also, have the capability to align programs/projects to the STIP and see downstream impacts on asset improvements.
