04/27/2015 Up to three proposers elevated and notified for software demonstrations
June/July 2015 Software demonstrations and Implementation Presentations
July 2015 Elevate and notify semifinalist or finalist proposer(s)
July/August 2015 Discovery sessions completed (1-2 days per elevated proposer, if
necessary)
September 2015 Complete contract negotiations and Statement of Work (SOW)
A.11.1 Software demonstrations and implementation presentations will be held on-site at the County’s
offices and can cover all functional areas listed in this RFP. The County expects to elevate up to
three (3) proposers for demonstrations. Demonstrations will include both presentations on
software and implementation services. It is highly recommended that proposed key members of
the proposer’s implementation staff for this project be present at the demonstration and lead
presentation of any implementation topics. To avoid unnecessary delays, the County expects that
proposers will be available for software demonstrations and on-site Discovery sessions on the
dates identified on the procurement schedule and to identify any potential issues or conflicts in
their response to this RFP using Attachment 2 (Proposal of Offeror Form). Proposers that cannot
demonstrate their software by the time the County requested may be eliminated. The agenda and
software demonstration scripts will be distributed to proposers that have been short-listed for
software demonstrations approximately two to three weeks in advance of the demonstrations.
Software demonstrations will also include discussions on implementation. The County reserves
the right to change the dates as needed.
A.11.2 Discovery sessions will consist of an additional on-site meeting with elevated proposers to focus
on implementation issues. After software demonstrations, it is expected the County will elevate
up to two (2) proposers. Each elevated proposal team will receive a Request for Clarification
(RFC) letter that will ask proposers to clarify any necessary parts of the initial proposal. In
addition, the RFC letter will identify a schedule for the on-site Discovery session that will
include a detailed discussion of implementation issues. It is the expectation of the County that all
key project team members will be available for the on-site Discovery sessions.
A.12 Evaluation Criteria The County will review all proposals received as part of a documented evaluation process. For each
decision point in the process, the County will evaluate proposers according to specific criteria and will
then elevate a certain number of proposers to compete in the next level. Proposers not previously elevated
may be elevated at a later date.
The sole purpose of the proposal evaluation process is to determine which solution best meets the
County’s needs. The evaluation process is not meant to imply that one proposer is superior to any other,
but rather that the selected proposer can provide and has proposed the best software and implementation
approach for the County’s current and future needs based on the information available and the County’s
best efforts of determination.
PAGE 10 OF 44
The proposal evaluation criteria, which will be developed by the County prior to opening of proposals,
should be viewed as standards that measure how well a proposer’s approach meets the desired
requirements and needs of the County. The criteria that will be used to evaluate proposals may include,
but are not limited to the following:
Cost
Response to Attachment 13 (Functional Requirements)
Software Demonstrations
Implementation Approach
Past Experience with Similar Organizations and References
Proposed Integration to Other Modules / Systems in RFP Scope
Technical Compatibility
Overall Understanding of the County’s Needs and Project Risk Mitigation
Project Management Approach
Compliance with Contract Terms and Conditions
In-state resident preference
Resident veterans preference
The County reserves the right to determine the suitability of proposals on the basis of any or all of these
criteria or other criteria not included in the above list. The County’s selection team will then make a
recommendation to be approved by the County Commission to elevate proposals for final contract
negotiations.
A.12.1 IN-STATE RESIDENT PREFERENCE

Please note that the County currently does not conduct business licensing, but wants to explore this area
should in the future it requires business licensing functions.
C.2 Project Scope – Implementation Services The County is aware of the level of effort required for an ERP implementation. The County also
understands the importance of a disciplined implementation that includes services for project
management, system design and documentation, testing, and training. The County also desires a project
where implementation consultants will help configure the ultimate solution and provide in depth
consultation regarding process efficiencies and best practices.
C.3 Project Scope – Organization Scope The following organizations (all County departments) are included in the scope of this project:
PAGE 20 OF 44

Department Name Number of
Employees
Department Name Number of
Employees
County Commission 5 CEO 12
Assessor 30 Sheriff 131

Legal 9 Criminal Justice Training Authority 2
Alternative Sentencing 55 Housing 3
Juvenile Services 50 Golf Course 11
San Juan Water Commission 6 Communication Authority 46
C.4 Project Scope – Implementation Deliverables To ensure quality throughout the implementation, the County’s project will include, at a minimum, the
following deliverables. Each deliverable will be the responsibility of the vendor and will be formally
presented to the County for review and sign off. For projects with multiple phases, the County expects
each phase to contain each deliverable (unless noted otherwise)
1) Comprehensive Project Plan – Detailed listing of tasks for the entire project that includes the
following for each task: due date, responsibility, and predecessors. Tasks to include on the project
plan will include all implementation activity, deadlines, milestones, sign offs, review periods, and
deliverables.
2) System Design Document – Work product that identifies both the business process decisions as
well as system configuration decisions for each in scope business process and system feature.
3) Testing Scripts – Test scripts based on the functional requirements and system design document
that require successful completion of each item in scope (functional requirements) and the set-up
of the system (system configuration).
4) Training Documentation – Complete system manual for how to use the configured system.
C.5 Project Scope - Hosting Services and/or Software as a Service The County is interested in obtaining the best system that will meet the overall needs of key stakeholders
for many years. One consideration for the evaluation will be long-term risk mitigation and overall cost of
ownership, including that of hardware. While the County would be capable of hosting the system
internally, it would prefer a vendor hosted system or software-as-a-service deployment. However, any
such hosting contract would need to be accompanied by service level agreements that set clear
expectations for system availability, performance, security, operating procedures, and customer service
and support responsiveness.
C.6 Project Schedule The County has a limited staff, but is focused on maintaining momentum for the project and achieving the
project’s anticipated goals. The County desires to implement the ERP solution according to best
practices. Currently, the County expects to implement financials first, then human resources. Further, the
County assumes that such a phased implementation will require approximately 18-24 months. These
assumptions do not represent solution requirements, but vendors are encouraged to consider County
resource availability in preparing their proposals and recommended implementation phasing.
PAGE 21 OF 44
C.7 Project Staffing The County will make every effort to staff the project appropriately and understands that staffing a project
is important to its success. The following table lists resources that the County expects to be available for
the project, their applicable areas of knowledge/assumed roles in the project, and the maximum
participation levels in the project.
County Staff Participation
Assumed Role Maximum Participation (FTE)
Project Manager 1.0
Finance Lead 1.0
Procurement Lead 1.0
HR Lead 2.0
Payroll Lead 1.0
Community Development Lead 0.5
IT Lead 0.5
C.8 Statement of Work The County will require the development of a detailed statement of work, including a high-level project
plan, prior to contract signing. The statement of work will include and describe at least the following and
may include additional items the County deems necessary:
Project scope
Project milestones
Project deliverables
High level project schedule (listing of phases and go-live dates)
Project resources
Project roles and responsibilities
Project change control procedures
C.9 Number of Users It is difficult for the County to envision exactly who will use the system as implementation of the system
will result in a major change in the way that the County does business. Proposers should plan, however,
on having all County departments with access to the system for at least a few users to enter transactions.
The following user counts identify expected users within each functional area. Additional users may be
required for extra help and proposers should plan to provide sufficient system access for the County to
fully implement its desired business processes. Proposals should include services to complete
implementation and any appropriate training services to prepare all County staff for using the system.
(Note: Employees are counted in multiple columns).

C.10 Interfaces Interface requirements have been included with the functional requirements. Proposers should respond to
each functional requirement, including the interface requirements, to identify the proposed scope. Any
positive response – “Y” or “Y-ND” listed in Attachment 13 (Functional Requirements) is considered to
be in scope and all pricing for the proposed scope included in the submitted milestone pricing. Interfaces
to the County’s existing systems are critical to the project success
Proposers are required to complete Attachment 17 (Interface) and indicate if the proposed interfaces are
included in scope
C.11 Data Conversion The County understands the level of effort required to convert data and is interested in converting only
essential data required for the new system. Proposers are required to complete Attachment 11
(Conversions) and indicate the proposed data conversions that are included in scope.

Section D: Contract Terms and Conditions
Below are important contract terms and conditions that the County expects to be part of an agreement
with the finalist proposer(s). Please indicate your willingness to comply with each condition by noting
any exceptions per the instructions in section B.8 of this RFP. Contract terms in the final agreement
should include but will not be limited to those listed below. The County will carefully evaluate any
exceptions to the terms and conditions listed below.
D.1 Key Personnel The County requires assurances as to the consistency and quality of vendor staffing for its project. Key
points of the County’s key personnel provision include:
D.1.1 The County shall have the ability to interview and approve key personnel proposed by the
vendor.
D.1.2 The County shall have the right to dismiss key personnel from the project.
D.1.3 Vendor key personnel may not be removed from the project without the County’s approval.
D.2 Implied and Express Warranty The Proposer will expressly warrant that the proposed and implemented system will conform in all
material respects to the in scope requirements and specifications as stated in this RFP including the
functional requirements in Attachment 13 (Functional Requirements) for a period no less than 12 months
after final acceptance. The rights and remedies provided herein are in addition to and do not limit any
rights afforded to the County by any other clause of this proposal.
D.3 Express Warranty Remedy The County requires that the vendor commit to repair or replace any function not working in the system
during the life of the warranty. In the event a problem cannot be fixed or replaced, the vendor will refund
the full amount paid for the software, implementation and any paid hosting and/or maintenance costs.
D.4 System Acceptance For purposes of acceptance of the system (or portions thereof), the County intends to use a two-staged
acceptance procedure for each phase and for the entire project. Key points include:
D.4.1 “Conditional Acceptance” will occur at or prior to go-live. The County will have up to forty-five
(45) days to test the system (“pre-live testing”) before going live.
D.4.2 The County will have a 90-day period after Conditional Acceptance to “live test” the system.
Live testing is the County’s opportunity to verify that the system complies with the functional
requirements and any other written specifications delivered to the County by the vendor during
the course of the project.
D.4.3 If after the live testing the system performs in accordance with the system specifications
(including the design document and functional requirements), the County will issue “Final
Acceptance.” The 90-day time frame for Final Acceptance shall be extended if problems are
found in the live test. Specifically, the County expects to document the date the problem is found
and the date it is certified as fixed. The acceptance period would pause when issues are reported
and would restart on the date the problem is certified as fixed. The warranty period shall begin at
the time of Final Acceptance.
PAGE 25 OF 44
D.5 Milestones The County requires that all payments be based on successful completion of milestones. After the
County’s acceptance of the milestone, the vendor will invoice for any applicable milestone payments. The
milestone payment amount shall either be a fixed fee or hourly based on the amount of time spent on the
milestone up to a not-to-exceed limit.
D.6 Additional Users and Modules The County will require “price protection” for a minimum of two (2) years from the effective date of the
agreement for additional County users and modules that are listed in the proposal but are not initially
purchased.
D.7 Restrictions on Growth The County requires that any proposed licenses or fees to access the software be adequate to allow the
County to use the system unrestricted for all business purposes of the County and the County agencies,
departments, and other third-party entities listed in this RFP. The County will not be subject to expansion
fees, additional license purchases, or fees for additional users, increases in County employee count,
budget size, population size, or data storage requirements for a period of 10 years from the effective date
of the agreement.
D.8 Delivery of the Project Plan and Other Key Deliverables The project plan is to be delivered within a contractually specified timeframe after contract signing. Delay
or failure to complete in a timely manner in this regard will result in the assessment of liquidated damages
up to $1,000 per day. Other key deliverables (Design Document, Go-Live Date, and any other deliverable
that can be deemed substantially the responsibility of the vendor) will also be subject to the assessment of
liquidated damages up to $1,000 per day if the vendor misses these key timeframes.
