Description
This NRFP invites Proposals from interested suppliers for the provision of a cloud-hosted software platform that will provide key decision-making technology to support prevention, preparedness and response activities (the “Platform”) for use by BC Wildfire Services (“BCWS”) within the Ministry of Forests (the “Ministry”). The Contractor will be required to provide access to a common operating platform that can be accessed by BCWS using remote devices such as android phones, iPads and iPhones in field settings and offer online and offline capabilities.
BCWS will use the Platform to deliver wildfire management. This type of technology will significantly increase situational awareness for staff working in the field and in response offices, enhancing the ability for BCWS to prepare for and respond to wildfires across the Province of British Columbia. It will support BCWS’ core prevention, preparedness and response processes and strengthen its ability to communicate current and future state to responding resources, stakeholders and the public. The Province is also seeking Platform integration, installation and configuration services (the “Integration and Implementation Services”), training for BCWS personnel (“Training Services”) and on-going support services (the “Support Services”). The Province also expects enhancements to the Solution, such as developing additional integrations as on-request Integration and Implementation Services.
Further details as to the scope of this opportunity and the requirements can be found within this NRFP.
