Organization overview and procurement intelligence available on paid plans.
The organization seeks to implement a cloud-based SaaS platform for labor relations and collective bargaining management to replace its current reliance on spreadsheets, static documents, and manual tracking systems. The software will centralize records, support contract negotiations, grievance administration, arbitration and discipline management, ULP proceedings, EEOC claims, litigation tracking, and ensure contract compliance monitoring.
Key requirements include clause-level tracking of contract changes, automation of milestone and audit trail processes, public records compliance, robust security (including encryption at rest and in transit), SOC 2 Type II compliance, defined incident response protocols, Section 508 accessibility, and clear data ownership with export capabilities. The solution should allow for negotiation management, discipline tracking, costing tools, data migration, integrations, reporting, analytics, and ongoing support and training. Centralized storage for agreements and related documents, full version control, comparison across bargaining cycles, and granular access controls are essential.
The contract will span three years, and the selected vendor must provide support, updates, training, and a well-defined licensing model. All questions regarding the RFP are due by April 23, 2026, and a non-mandatory pre-proposal meeting is scheduled for April 20, 2026.
