Specifications include, but are not limited to: To purchase and implement a centralized Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system to create efficiencies and improve the effectiveness of the internal service departments that provide support to all County departments in its daily operations. This project will allow the integration, consolidation, and automation of business processes currently handled in separate systems as well as the elimination of duplicative, manual, and offline processes. The implemented ERP Solution must consolidate the County’s current collection of core resources within budget, procurement, financial, human capital and other business systems. The County’s current systems are outdated, disconnected and undersized, and not able to meet the needs of the County. The selected Proposer will implement a modern, integrated ERP software system with increased functionality, user access, reporting, automation, integration, and data structures. The ERP system will support the comprehensive needs of the County, including the internal service departments and end-user departments that use these core resources within their daily functions. The County requires responding Proposers to propose a fully integrated ERP proposer-hosted/cloud solution, including software, hardware specifications, implementation and project management, and other technology services for the entire scope of the project that may or may not include components owned by the proposer. The County recognizes that this project will have a significant impact on their staff and is looking to minimize that impact insofar as possible. To the extent proposer is able, the County is looking for the proposer to conduct a thorough business analysis at the start of each module and to provide the County with a pre-configured system using its best practices and experience as a model. The County expects to review and test this pre-configured system, requesting minimal changes as required.
