DESCRIPTION

The Port seeks a vendor to implement a cloud-based digital community engagement solution designed to complement and improve in-person engagement practices. This platform should empower port staff to build stronger community connections by providing accessible, equitable, and secure tools that are consistent across major devices and platforms.

The solution must include comprehensive multilingual translation capabilities, ensuring information is accessible to speakers of diverse languages. Robust, secure, and efficient data collection features are required, supporting multiple sources and formats, with AI-assisted content moderation tools to monitor, flag, review, and remove inappropriate user-generated content. The system should offer configurable templates and content authoring tools, enabling staff to create and present project information with ease using various media formats such as text, images, videos, charts, and tables.

Vendors must provide customizable dashboards and visualization tools to facilitate data-driven insights and informed decision-making. The deployment should be capable of starting with a pilot phase and scaling up as needed. Additional requirements include support for single-sign-on authentication and full compliance with the state's public records act, encompassing retention policies, export capabilities, and secure data storage.
