Bid Comments The State of Utah, Division of Purchasing (Lead State) is requesting proposals for cloud solutions in furtherance of the NASPO ValuePoint Cooperative Purchasing Program. The purpose of this Request for Proposals (RFP) is to establish Master Agreements with qualified Offerors to provide services related to cloud solutions for all Participating Entities. The objective of this RFP is to obtain best value, and achieve more favorable pricing, than is obtainable by an individual state or local government entity because of the collective volume of potential purchases by numerous state and local government entities. The Master Agreement(s) resulting from this procurement shall be extended to state governments (including departments, agencies, institutions), institutions of higher education, political subdivisions (i.e., colleges, school districts, counties, cities, etc.), the District of Columbia, territories of the United States, and other eligible entities subject to approval of the individual state procurement director and compliance with local statutory and regulatory provisions. The initial term of the Master Agreement shall be ten (10) years with no renewal provisions; however, Contract Vendors must submit an annual certification that they are still compliant with the mandatory minimum requirements and technical specification of the RFP.
Each state, territory, and participating entity is unique in how they currently employ cloud solutions; some are utilizing cloud solutions to augment services that their technology departments provide to end users and some have not entered the realm of outsourcing technical solutions to cloud solutions providers. This cooperative procurement effort’s objective is to provide states, territories, and their authorized political subdivisions with high quality cloud based service providers that have the ability to provide a menu of cloud solutions offerings that will ultimately increase the technology department’s overall efficiency, reduce costs, improve operational scalability, provide business continuity, increase collaboration efficiencies, and allow for expanded flexibility in work practices and system improvements.
The resulting Master Agreement contract(s) will provide Participating Entities with access to technical capabilities that run in cloud environments and meet the NIST Essential Characteristics. Sub-categories in scope are the three NIST Service Models, Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS).
The awarded contracts will allow Participating Entities to choose cloud solutions that meet the following descriptions:
