that can meet OSFI's stated content migration business and
technical requirements. As a result of the RFI, a technical

After the assessment was concluded, it was determined by the
client that the Tzunami Inc. solution met and exceeded all of
OSFI's business migration rules and technical requirements.

MINIMUM ESSENTIAL REQUIREMENT (Mandatory)
The Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions
(OSFI) has a requirement to migrate the enterprise document
contents from the Open Text Livelink 9.1.3 document management
system to the target Microsoft SharePoint 2010 platform.

The Content Migration Solution must meet the following
requirements:
1. At the closing date of the Advance Contract Award Notice
(ACAN), the Content Migration Solution must be available as a
COTS product and have been formally released as ready to install
software product with no customization required.

2. The Content Migration Solution must extract document content
from the source Livelink system, specifically Livelink version
9.1.3 and the Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Enterprise database.

3. The Content Migration Solution must not alter OSFI's Livelink
9.1.3 configuration. Specifically, no modules are installed on
the Livelink server configuration and no changes are required to
the :
a.	Livelink Admin server configuration (opentext.ini file)
b.	Livelink content database
c.	Livelink external filestore

4. Core metadata values are automatically transferred from
Livelink 9.1.3 (source) to the SharePoint 2010 (target),
specifically core metadata values such as,
a.	Name (document name)
b.	Description
c.	Created By (Livelink user)
d.	Created (date / timestamp)
e.	Modified By (Livelink user)
f.	Modified (data / timestamp)
g.	Mime Type (document type)

5. The Content Migration Solution must perform the mapping of
Livelink documents and transform the Livelink metadata to the
specified SharePoint Content Type in OSFI EDRMS Solution by
addressing the following scenarios:
a.	Process the Livelink content recursively from a starting
folder.
b.	Map Livelink document metadata to a specific SharePoint
content type and transform the required SharePoint columns based

hyperlinks to the migrated document's new document URL in
SharePoint without editing or altering the contents of the
original Livelink document. After migration, the mapping or
transfolination of the Livelink hyperlink must reference the
target document's new URL in the SharePoint library.

(metadata) for a given Livelink document, map and transform the
Livelink attribute's value to the identified Content Type column
in SharePoint
a.	The Content Migration Solution must not modify or add columns
to the predefined content type definitions in the EDRMS solution
when mapping Livelink Category / Attribute information to
SharePoint
b.	The Content Migration Solution must distinguish between
Livelink Category versions and allow a specific Category version
and its Attribute values to be mapped or skipped

9. The Content Migration Solution must provide a detailed audit
trail of the migration activity with detected migration errors.

10. The Content Migration Solution must provide the ability to
save and preserve migration audit trails for future access and
reference after the migration activity is complete.

particular supplier and no reasonable alternative or substitute
exists, for additional deliveries by the original supplier that
are intended either as replacement parts or continuing services
for existing supplies, services or installations, or as the
extension of existing supplies, services or installations, where
a change of supplier would compel the entity to procure
equipment or services not meeting requirements of inter
changeability with already existing equipment or services,
including software to the extent that the initial procurement of
the software was covered by this Chapter, respectively.

supplier which are intended either as parts replacement for
existing supplies, or installations, or as the extension of
existing supplies, services, or installations where a change of
supplier would compel the entity to procure equipment or
services not meeting requirements of inter changeability with
already existing equipment or Services, respectively.
