The purpose of this RFP is to select a vendor that can satisfy the States need for a
Calendaring System for the state website.
The system should provide citizens insight into what the State is doing. News and events calendar will provide a consistent and rapid way to
inform citizens about date sensitive information. Executive Branch departments
and agencies should put all news and events about their operations online and readily
available to the public.
A new Calendaring system will need to address the following issues:
Calendar centric information is posted in multiple repositories. This causes the
constituent to look in multiple locations to find information.
Agencies are creating HTML pages and posting their events in bulleted listed. Data
sensitive information cannot be searched for in this format.
Agencies release date sensitive information via GovDelivery
Some agencies have date sensitive information that they are statutorily responsible to
post. This information needs to be visible from a top level.
