GENERAL INFORMATION

1. INTRODUCTION

The Enterprise Business Solution (EBS) Division of the Office of Management and Finance in the City of Portland (collectively, the “City”) is responsible for the ongoing support and enhancement of the City’s SAP enterprise resource planning (ERP) system. The City’s SAP ERP system software solution incorporates Citywide standardization and use of best-practice business processes and provides consistent financial, purchasing, payroll, and human resources functionality Citywide. As additional, expanded, and/or modified system software and functionality are required by the City, the EBS Division is responsible for planning, performing, and managing the blueprinting, configuration, development, testing, change management, training development and delivery, and implementation of the new, expanded, and/or modified SAP ERP system software and accompanying business processes. The City is seeking a Contractor to oversee the implementation of SAP’s Public Sector Collections and Disbursements (PSCD) module using best business practices for the public sector. The primary goal of this project is to implement the module for use by the Office for Community Technology (OCT) in managing all utility license and franchise agreements. A secondary goal is to implement PSCD in a manner that meets all of OCT’s business requirements while positioning it to be used for other City programs in the future. Therefore the underlying structure of PSCD must be designed from a citywide perspective.

2. BACKGROUND

The City requested proposals for ERP software to best meet the City’s business needs and functional requirements and selected mySAP2005 ECC 6.0. The City SAP ERP system software and accompanying best-practice business processes were implemented in two phases: Finance and Logistics (FILO) on November 27 2008 and Human Capital Management (HCM) on June 10, 2009. Following the implementation, a select number of the EBS Project staff formed the EBS Division and assumed responsibility for the ongoing support and enhancement of the ERP system. City SAP ERP System Function Groupings The City of Portland runs SAP ERP 6.0 / NW7.02 EHP6 for all financial and human resources business processes. The following SAP FILO and HCM business modules and functions, along with the supporting Technology (TECH) and Help Desk (CHD) functions, form the set of functionality currently in use by the City:

The City values and supports diversity and is dedicated to advancing equity in public contracting by increasing opportunities for State of Oregon certified Minority, Women and Emerging Small Business enterprises (“M/W/ESB”). The Social Equity Contracting Strategy promotes M/W/ESB economic growth and encourages partnering and mentoring between large and small M/W/ESB firms on City PTE contracts. Therefore, the City has established an overall aspirational goal of 20% in awarding PTE prime consultant and sub-consultant contracts to State of Oregon certified M/W/ESB firms. Proposing firms are encouraged to use the State’s OMWESB website (http://www4.cbs.state.or.us/ex/dir/omwesb/) for identifying potential M/W/ESB subconsultants. All Proposers shall address the following in their proposals:

PART III

PROPOSAL EVALUATION

SECTION A

REVIEW AND EVALUATION

1. EVALUATION CRITERIA

A Selection Review Committee (Committee) will be appointed to evaluate the proposals received. For the purpose of scoring proposals, each Committee member will evaluate each proposal in accordance with the criteria listed in Part II, Section C. The Committee may seek the assistance of outside expertise, including, but not limited to, technical advisors. The Committee will require a minimum of ten (10) working days to evaluate and score the proposals. The choice of how to proceed, decisions to begin or terminate negotiations, determination of a reasonable time, decisions to open negotiations with a lower scoring Proposer, and any decision that a solicitation should be cancelled are all within the sole discretion of the City. The proposal evaluation process consists of a series of Evaluation Phases that will lead to the identification of a finalist. Each proposal response will be evaluated in accordance with the following evaluation criteria: Evaluation Phase #1 – Written Scoring: Responses meeting the mandatory and responsiveness requirements will be further evaluated as part of Evaluation Phase #1. One hundred possible points are available at Phase #1. This step consists of a detailed review of the responses as follows: Phase #1 Evaluation Criteria Criteria

Evaluation Phase #2 – Oral Scoring: If oral interviews or presentations are determined to be necessary, this next step may consist of oral presentations, reference checks, and further clarification of the Proposer’s response. The number of proposals on the “short list” depends on whether the Committee believes such proposals have a reasonable chance of leading to the award of a contract. Proposers invited to participate in Evaluation Phase #2 will be given additional information regarding the City’s desired content a reasonable time before the scheduled Evaluation Phase #2 oral interviews or presentations are held. The scoring of the Phase #2 will be as follows:

All communications shall be through the contact(s) referenced in Part II, Section A.2 of the RFP. At the City’s sole discretion, communications with members of the evaluation committee, other City staff, or elected City officials for the purpose of unfairly influencing the outcome of this RFP may be cause for the Proposer’s proposal to be rejected and disqualified from further consideration. The City has the right to reject any or all proposals for good cause in the public interest, and the Chief Procurement Officer may waive any evaluation irregularities that have no material effect on upholding a fair and impartial evaluation selection process. NOTE: In the City’s discretion, litigation between the City and a Proposer may be cause for proposal rejection, regardless of when that litigation comes to the City’s attention and regardless how the Proposer’s proposal may have been scored. Proposals may also be rejected if they use subcontractors or subconsultants who are involved in litigation with the City. Proposers who are concerned about possible rejection on this basis should contact the City before submission of a proposal for a preliminary determination of whether its proposal will be rejected. 2

SCORING PROCESS

For Evaluation Phase #1, the sum of all points earned by a Proposer from all proposal evaluators will be the Total Overall Score for Phase #1. The Evaluation Committee may focus on only a limited number of proposals by developing a “short list” to move on to Evaluation Phase #2 based on the scores from the written proposals or may proceed directly to contract negotiation and award. If Proposers move to Evaluation Phase #2, then the proposal scores from Phase #1 will not be used during the oral interview/presentation process and will be scored based on the Phase #2 criteria alone. Following completion of the Evaluation Phase #2 scoring, each Proposer’s Evaluation Phase #2 score will be added to their Evaluation Phase #1 score to determine their Total Overall Score. The highest scoring proposal, based on their Total Overall Score, may be identified as the Finalist.

3. CLARIFYING PROPOSAL DURING EVALUATION

At any point during the evaluation process, the City is permitted, but is not required, to seek clarification of the proposal. However, a request for clarification does not permit changes to a proposal.

SECTION B

FINAL SELECTION

1. CONTRACT NEGOTIATION

The consultant selection process will be carried out under Portland City Code Chapter 5.68. Following the Evaluation Committee’s final determination of the highest scored Proposer, the City will issue a Notice of Intent to Award and begin contract negotiations. The City will attempt to reach a final agreement, including a detailed scope of work, project schedule, and fee schedule, with the highest scoring Proposer. However, the City may, in its sole discretion, terminate negotiations and reject the proposal if it appears agreement cannot be reached. The City may then attempt to reach a final agreement with the second highest scoring Proposer and may continue on, in the same manner, with remaining Proposers until an agreement is reached.

2. CONTRACT DEVELOPMENT

The proposal and all responses provided by the Proposer may become a part of the final contract. Any information included as part of the contract shall be a public record and not exempt from disclosure, including items redacted from the proposal. The form of contract

RFP 116108

Page 15 of 43

shall be the City's Contract for IT PTE Services found in RFP Attachment B. 3. REVIEW AND PROTESTS

REVIEW: Following the Notice of Intent to Negotiate and Award, the public may view proposal documents. However, any proprietary information so designated by the Proposer as a trade secret or confidential and meeting the requirements of ORS 192.501, 192.502 and/or ORS 646.461 et seq., will not be disclosed unless the Multnomah County District Attorney determines that disclosure is required. At this time, Proposers not awarded the contract may seek additional clarification or debriefing, request time to review the selection procedures or discuss the scoring methods utilized by the evaluation committee. PROTESTS: Protests may be submitted to the Chief Procurement Officer only for formal solicitations resulting in contract(s) individually valued at or above the Formal Solicitation Process Dollar Threshold (reference http://www.portlandoregon.gov/bibs/article/74585), and only from those Proposers who would receive the contract if their protest was successful. Protests must be in writing and received by the Chief Procurement Officer within seven (7) calendar days, UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED, following the date the City’s Notice of Intent to Negotiate and Award, Notice to Short List, or notification for non-responsiveness was issued. The protest must specifically state the reason for the protest and show how its proposal or the successful proposal was mis-scored or show how the selection process deviated from that described in the solicitation document. No contract will be awarded until the protest has been resolved. Protests must be timely and must include all legal and factual information regarding the protest, and a statement of the form of relief requested. Protests received later than specified or from other than the Proposer who would receive the contract if the protest was successful will not be considered. The exercise of judgment used by the evaluators in scoring the written proposals and interviews, including the use of outside expertise, is not grounds for appeal. The Chief Procurement Officer may waive any procedural irregularities that had no material effect on the selection of the proposed contractor, invalidate the proposed award, amend the award decision, request the evaluation committee re-evaluate any proposal, or require the bureau to cancel the solicitation and begin again to solicit new proposals. In the event the matter is returned to the evaluation committee, the Chief Procurement Officer shall issue a notice canceling the Notice of Intent to Negotiate and Award. Decisions of the Chief Procurement Officer are final and conclude the administrative appeals process.

3. KICK-OFF MEETING

RFP 116108

If requested by the City, the Contractor shall begin work by attending an orientation meeting to take place within five (5) Business Days following execution of the contract. The Contractor shall then develop and maintain a comprehensive schedule for all elements of the project

5.2

Procedure and Timetable. Unless otherwise specified, the City shall commence the Acceptance Test no later than ten (10) Business Days after receipt of a Deliverable. Contractor shall provide, at no additional cost, reasonable and appropriate support, assistance, and consultation regarding the Deliverable in order to facilitate Acceptance Testing.

5.3

Failure of Acceptance Test. The City will notify Contractor if a Deliverable or a portion of a Deliverable, fails to pass an Acceptance Test and will specify in reasonable detail the identified failures and possible reasons for failure. After City’s notification, Contractor shall correct the Deliverable, or the affected portion, within ten (10) Business Days and notify the City that the Correction has been completed. After Contractor’s Correction notification, the City shall perform a second Acceptance Test. If the Deliverable, or portion of the Deliverable, fails to pass the second Acceptance Test, the City shall notify Contractor in writing, and the City may, in its sole discretion: (a) terminate the Contract or Task Order with no further liability; (b) request Contractor to replace the Deliverable or defective portion of the Deliverable at no additional cost to the City, c) request Contractor make further corrections to prepare for retesting again; (d) accept the Deliverable at a reduced cost to be negotiated between the Parties; or (e) issue an Acceptance Certificate entitled “Acceptance with Exception(s).”

If the City issues an “Acceptance with Exception(s)” the City will list the exception(s) and the date for Contractor’s correction. If exceptions are corrected by the listed date(s) the City agrees to commence further Acceptance Testing of the Deliverable or affected portion(s). If the Deliverable passes the Acceptance Tests, the City will issue a Certificate of Acceptance. If a Deliverable fails a second Acceptance Test (or in the event of a single Acceptance Test, the Acceptance Test) in no event shall there be an increase to the original price agreed to by the Parties for the Deliverable.

5.5

If the City elects to accept the Deliverable even with the failure(s), then the City may request that Contractor issue a refund to the City in an amount equal to a percentage of the full fee value of the Deliverable that the Parties mutually determine represents the loss of functionality of the Deliverable.

5.6

The City shall have the right to revoke “Acceptance with Exception(s)” if the City granted an “Acceptance with Exception(s)” based on Contractor’s commitment to correct the defect within a reasonable period of time, but the defect has not been so corrected. The City shall also have the right to revoke Acceptance if the City accepted the Deliverable without discovery of the defect, and the Acceptance was reasonably induced by Contractor’s assurances or by the difficulty of discovery of the defect before Acceptance. Revocation is effective only if it occurs within a reasonable time after the City discovers or should have discovered the reasons for revocation.

Introduction

1.1

Project Overview The goal of this project is to provide a system to administer and manage all franchise arid utility license agreements for the Revenue Bureau's Office for Community Technology.

1.2

Background and Purpose The Office for Community Technology (OCT), a division of the Revenue Bureau, was established by Portland City Code 3.114.010. OCT negotiates and manages franchise agreements for entities seeking authority to use the city rights-of-way, including cable, utilities, and telecommunications companies. In addition, it administers the City's Utility License Law, which is a tax assessed on utilities within Portland. See PCC 7.14 (Appendix C) and administrative rules UTL 3.01-3.07 (Appendix D). OCT is responsible for generating over $70 million annually to the City's general fund. The administration of the franchises and license agreements has increased more than fourfold over the past three years requiring the need for a more efficient process to gather, store, and access various data requirements. Currently approximately 375 franchises and agreements are managed and tracked using various Excel spreadsheets and Word documents. The lack of a single database to manage all of the processes needed to effectively manage the program results in a system that is inefficient and prone to error. Data is inaccessible, resulting in sub-par reporting capabilities and poor data management. The current system provides many opportunities for improvement:

Reduce duplicate data entry. Currently information is entered in several spreadsheets and the same information is also entered in SAP. Having all of the data entered in one system will not only save time but will greatly improve the quality and accessibility of the data. Improve reporting capabilities. Currently access to data is cumbersome because the . data is maintained in multiple places, and reporting requires the manual consolidation of that data. Having all of the pertinent data in one system will greatly improve the availability of data, and pre-defined system reports will provide much needed reporting capabilities. Implement e-government solutions. Providing online capabilities such as license application, company revenue reporting, and payment submission will increase customer service while promoting process efficiencies. Supporting objectives: • Integrate business processes • Enable process workflows • Improve the accuracy, reliability, and timeliness of data Page 3 of 41

Current Environment

A. Overview of existing processes OCT manages approximately 50 franchisees and 250 licensees. In addition, the Utility Program administers subprograms including the Wireless Program, Compliance Program, and an aggressive audit schedule. OCT primarily uses various Excel spreadsheets, Word documents, and Outlook to track all of the necessary information for each licensee andlor franchise, including: • • • • • • • • •

Company contact information Financial data Interest calculation Franchise terms and expiration dates Ordinance, insurance, and bond information Types of interest to charge accounts Pole locations Company types Correspondence

Processes are slow and sometimes redundant. With various people accessing and updating multiple documents and spreadsheets, the data is prone to error. Multiple Excel files lack the features the Program requires to reduce redundancies, streamline processes and reduce errors. Without a comprehensive database, the Program experiences challenges, including, but not limited to: records being overwritten with newer data, manual reentering of data into several different spreadsheets to generate reports, and penalty and interest (P&I) calculations being calculated manually. All financial information must be entered into the City's financial system, SAP. To meet this requirement, the Program creates billing documents in SAP to record the receivable Page 5 of 41

OCT Utility License and Franchise Agreement System Detail Business Requirements

against the customer record and to recognize the revenue. Incoming payments are posted in SAP to clear the receivable and record the cash receipt. Any additional financial postings, e.g. interest, late fee, etc. are posted in SAP as well. All of this information is also entered into various Program spreadsheets. These challenges inhibit the Program's ability to provide a historical account record, provide accurate allocation of payments (e.g. regular payment, late fee, penalties, audit settlements, etc.), prepare account records for litigation purposes, and meet the program's reporting needs. Refer to Appendix B for current process diagrams.

B. Rationale for a new system 1.

2. 3. 4.

2.3

Current database has limited functionality 1.1. Inability to generate all needed automated reports 1.2. Disparate information contained amongst several Excel spreadsheets 1.3. Lack of modem features such as automated correspondence, billing, payments, and reports 1.4. Current use of SAP does not provide an efficient and effective receivables management system 1.5. Not all data is saved; data can be overwritten in the spreadsheets 1.6. Not all data is collected 1.7. User must do multiple manual calculations, e.g. quarterly payment amount, etc. 1.8. No multi-user capabilities 1.9. Limited search capabilities 1.10. Inability to track account type (1 ) Regular/Active (2) Exempt 1.11. No document imaging, scanning, or ability to attach documents 1.12. No manual interest capabilities 1.13. No administrative fee table or automated calculations 1.14. No customizable reports 1.15. Limited views of account information 1.16. No start/end date for contracts Program staff spends several hours entering and re-entering data in multiple places and performing hand calculations Redundancy and manual entering slows businesses processes Slow business processes leads to reduced service delivery

Value Provided to Customer A. Improved productivity or reduced rework 1. By placing all of the necessary data elements in one database, redundant work will be reduced and administrators can work on other tasks.

Page 6 of 41

OCT Utility License and Franchise Agreement System Detail Business Requirements

2.

3.

Currently, the amount of reentry and manually-entered correspondence reduces productivity. It is important to include as many flexible, automated, and electronic features in the new system. Automated reports and the ability to retain historical data will also contribute to increased productivity as program administrators will be able to analyze program data over time (instead of reentering data into spreadsheets just to keep up).

B. Cost savings or increased revenue 1. Reductions in human error by eliminating manual calculations and removing redundant work may reduce overall program costs.

C. Streamlined business processes 1. 2.

Creating a multi-user database allows real-time updates and access to audited account information that the database currently lacks. Increased automation of calculations, correspondence, and compliance pipeline will improve account tracking and business processes.

D. Automation of previously manual tasks 1.

Automated reports, P&I, correspondence, billing, and calculations will reduce human error, streamline processes, and increase productivity.

E. Ability to perform entirely new tasks or functions 1. 2.

F.

By reducing the amount of data re-entry, this will streamline processes and allow administrators to perform new tasks and functions. A new system may require additional or different tasks and/or functions.

Conformance to current standards or regulations 1.

The current P&I calculations are not to code. This could cause problems during litigation. Conforming to the code will be imperative in the new system.

G. Improved usability compared to current applications 1.

The rationale for creating a new system is to meet the program goals of accurately calculating the tax and preparing documents for possible litigation. The current system does not address these base goals.
