DESCRIPTION

A government entity in Manitoba, Canada is seeking a vendor to provide financial budgeting software along with ongoing support services for an initial five-year term. The current system presents challenges such as inflexible and non-transparent calculations, a non-intuitive user interface, and insufficient integration with key internal systems, causing staff to use manual workarounds and external tools for budgeting and reporting tasks.

Required features include flexible and transparent calculations, a user-friendly interface, and robust integration capabilities—particularly with the Avanti Human Resources Management System for salary and position planning. The system must allow the creation of multiple budget versions, what-if scenario modeling, and support flexible, dynamic reporting (ideally with Power BI integration). Additionally, it should provide granular user permissions to control data access and support both ad hoc and formal reporting needs.

Interested vendors must submit questions about the RFP by March 31, 2026, with the final proposal deadline on April 16, 2026.
