Web Priorities Notes - Aug 28, 2024

Updates

Canada.ca Re-Procurement Project: Request for Information overview

• We wanted to talk to stakeholders to understand the industry landscape
• To draft the RFI, we collaborated with other GC departments such as
  • CDS, ESDC, Canadian Centre for Cyber Security etc…
• Three vendors responded to the RFI
• Our team has looked at the responses to develop the RFP
• We held some industry events to get insights and clarify some questions
• Vendors could still come into the RFP process even if they haven’t participated in RFI
• We will be doing a RFI “round two” and posting a draft RFP
• The whole process is to mitigate risk, that the vendors won’t be able to develop what we need

RFI Preliminary Results

• Vendors said they could:
  • meet Official Languages requirement
  • meet privacy requirements, and data will remain in Canada
• Some venders said they could:
  • meet Cloud hosting requirements
  • integrate into the GC Digital Ecosystem

Also: Vendors are aware of accessibility requirements

RFI Preliminary Results

• There are components outside the current Managed Web Service Technology that vendors think we should leverage
• We need to work on more convenient access
• Can harness AI for some tasks
• There are ways to personalize a visitor’s experience

NEXT STEPS RFI Hold industry events
