Job Description
- The project will begin with a kickoff meeting between the Client and the Contractor(s). This will allow the Contractor(s) to meet the Department's project manager and discuss project expectations.
- The Department's project manager will be the Contractor's primary point of contact. The project manager will answer questions about the department, review deliverables, and support the Contractor(s) with overall project needs and assistance.
- Contractor(s) will be provided with access to client systems and personnel. This will help the Contractor(s) complete the inventory of technology contracts and the assessment of technology needs.
- After completing the four deliverables in section 2 above, which are necessary inputs to the final RFP, the Contractor(s) will work with multiple stakeholders on an iterative RFP process. Contractor(s) will receive a draft template and will be expected to complete an initial draft, after which there will be four levels of review:
- Technology Review: this review will involve the Department's project manager, who will assist with the additional reviews.
- Stakeholder Review: this review will allow stakeholders who provided input in the Needs Assessment to review the initial draft of the RFP.
- Finance Review: this review will involve the Department's Financial resources, which will ensure it is consistent with the expectations of Client Procurement.
- Client Procurement Review: the final review will include deliberations with Client Procurement personnel. The Office of Procurement must sign off on the final RFP before it can be made available to the public.
- The Department requires users to conduct all interviews and meetings onsite. This includes at least one weekly meeting with the Department's project manager. This meeting will review the Contractor's schedule and identify any risks or issues.
- This is a priority project for the Department. Contractor(s) are expected to complete the first four deliverables and a complete draft RFP within three months of the project kickoff meeting
Qualifications and Experience:
- At least five years of customer-facing technology project management experience.
- At least three projects where Contractor worked with technology users and gathered technology requirements, with at least one involving a department or other law enforcement agency.
- At least three examples of meaningful work on Requests for Proposals (RFPs), with at least one example as a primary author.
- PMP certification is preferred but not required if experience substitutes.
- Detail-oriented, heavy focus on documentation and production support needs post-project, such that the project delivers all that is needed to support organizations.
- Thrives in a collaborative environment
- Self-starter with the ability to multitask, prioritize, and scale.
- Strong presentation skills, excellent verbal and written communication skills, with an ability to influence others.
- Experience creating Word document and Excel spreadsheets.
