Request For Proposals
Grant County is seeking proposals for an Electronic Permitting and Tracking Program (EPTP), with a primary emphasis on developing a land use permit tracking program for planning and upgrade the County's current Building Permit System used by the Building Department, or replace it with a program that is deemed equivalent, including a number of specified modifications included within a Request for Proposals/Bid Packet (RFP Packet).
Vendors are encouraged to team up with other vendors if doing so would result in a proposal that will produce the best solution for the County's need.
The County will enter into a contractual agreement with the company/companies or firm(s) to be selected as part of this RFP process. The purpose of the agreement will be to: (1) implement an upgrade of the current Building Permit System or program (on an IBM AS 400 platform) for permitting and tracking; or (2) develop a new application for the Building Permit System; and (3) a new planning permit system application for the Planning Department which complies with all specifications set forth in the RFP Packet. All proposals must interface with the Terra Scan system currently in use by the County. All systems - whether upgraded or new - must be compatible with Laser-Fiche document management systems.
Project expectations are fully set forth in the RFP Packet, which may be obtained beginning Wednesday, July 17th at:
