We anticipate the selection of a vendor or vendors by May 10, 2024.
Ongoing Support & Maintenance
MnCCC and the Human Services User Group are seeking a long-term partner. In addition to a quality software product, the vendor should provide a high-quality level of ongoing support for the software tool. In addition to support, the vendor should outline a robust maintenance plan and schedule to ensure the software tool is well maintained and continues to function at a high-level of performance.
It is expected that the selected vendor will participate in monthly and quarterly user group and advisory committee meetings and select subcommittee meetings.
