LETTER OF INTEREST
SUBJECT - On behalf of its client the Department of National Defence (DND), Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC) has a requirement for the provision of Solutions Integrator (SI) services to support the development and implementation of a modern, flexible and integrated Military Personnel Management (MPM) capability, encompassing Human Resources (HR) and Payroll for the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) as further described in this LOI.
BACKGROUND - The SI requirement is one of several requirements which fall under the realm of DND's Military Personnel Management Capability Transformation (MPMCT) Project. An initial Letter of Interest (LOI # W8474-11MP01/A) was published in September 2010 to notify industry of Canada's intentions with respect to the MPMCT Project requirements and to seek industry feedback. The following subsequent LOI's have also been published to update industry on the ongoing MPMCT Project status and its evolving procurement approach:
W8474-11MPO1/B published 2012-03-15; W8474-11MP01/C published 2012-06-18; W8474-11MP01/D published 2012-10-29; W8474-11MP01/E published 2013-01-15; and W8474-11MP01/F, published 2013-05-10.
Copies of the above noted LOI's can be obtained by contacting the SI Contracting Authority directly.
PURPOSE OF THIS LOI
A) To notify industry of Canada's intentions with respect to the MPMCT Project SI requirement and seek out input and feedback from industry regarding these intentions and the development of the bid solicitation document.
assess and comment on the adequacy and clarity of the draft SI Statement of Work and other draft technical documents as currently articulated;
comment on the contemplated SI requirement procurement strategy and fee structure and whether it is feasible for industry to propose an accurate, comprehensive solution at reasonable cost, in response to any resulting SI Request For Proposal (RFP) and if not, make suggestions for improvements;
suggest potential alternative solutions that would meet the MPMCT SI requirement; and
identify any issues, concerns or recommendations regarding the SI requirement and associated procurement approach..
POTENTIAL REQUIREMENT - The DND MPMCT Project has been established to manage the development and delivery of a new MPM capability which involves developing a modern regulatory and policy framework, transforming MPM business processes and implementing a modern, integrated Information Management system based on the Commercial Off-The-Shelf Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software, Oracle PeopleSoft. The new MPM capability is to be called "Guardian".
An Integrated Project Team (IPT) concept has been established as part of the MPMCT Project delivery concept. An IPT is a cohesive integrated team comprised of Canada and industry professionals that delivers business benefits through business transformation and IM/IT solutions. The MPMCT IPT is composed of DND/CAF and contractor organizations brought together into a single project team structure led by the DND MPMCT Project Manager.
To support the MPMCT IPT, the professional services will be required from multiple third party contractors, one of which will be the MPMCT SI contractor.
Through a contemplated bid solicitation, PWGSC and DND will seek to select an MPMCT SI contractor to provide professional services required to support the development and implementation of various aspects of Guardian (as further described in the LOI), including, but not limited to, Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) application development and integration, business process transformation, information integration and data migration.
POST SUBMISSION REVIEW MEETINGS - Representatives from PWGSC and DND will make themselves available to respondents to this LOI for individual Post-Submission Review Meetings to be held at a location in the National Capital Region. The intent of these meetings will be to provide an opportunity for a face-to-face discussion between DND, the Contracting Authority and the respondent concerning feedback and suggestions pursuant to their response to this LOI and other topics pertinent to the development of the contemplated bid solicitation. The Post-Submission Review Meetings will be closed meetings between Canada and each Respondent (and its team members). Scheduling will be determined by PWGSC.
FAIRNESS MONITOR - Please also note that Canada has retained the services of an independent third party Fairness Monitor (PPI Consulting Limited - Mr. Howard Grant) for the MPMCT SI requirement. For the purpose of carrying out its Fairness Monitor related obligations, the Fairness Monitor will be granted access to industry responses and related correspondence received by Canada pursuant to this LOI (and any subsequent RFI and any resulting RFP) and may act as an observer at any follow-up meetings.
This is not a bid solicitation. A contract will not result from this activity. This RFI will not necessarily result in any procurement action and potential contractors are not to earmark stock or facilities relative to the work described herein..
