Project and Portfolio Management Tool

The State of Texas is seeking a qualified vendor to provide, implement, and support an enterprise Project and Portfolio Management (PPM) tool. The desired solution must offer robust capabilities for project, program, and portfolio management, including user-definable portfolio types and comprehensive views comparing planned versus actual project summaries. The tool should enable tracking of billable and labor cost rates, resource creation and planning, and support integration through web services APIs. Vendors are expected to provide details on API utilization for seamless integration with other systems.

In addition to standard PPM features, the software must incorporate advanced AI capabilities, such as project data analysis, outcome prediction, trend identification, and resource optimization. The system should identify patterns within project data and generate actionable recommendations to enhance project performance. Resource optimization features based on real-time data and demand are also required, alongside templates and frameworks to streamline project initiation and management.

The scope of implementation includes configuration, integration, testing, training, deployment, documentation, and ongoing support. The selected vendor should ensure the solution aligns with both business processes and industry best practices. License options for the enterprise PPM software are to be detailed as part of the proposal. The contract is set for a one-year period, and all vendor questions must be submitted by January 16, 2026.
