Baselining and Technical Discovery

The contract titled Baselining and Technical Discovery is a subcontract aimed at conducting a 100-day technical discovery to evaluate existing systems, identify functional and technical requirements, and lay the groundwork for Agile project delivery. This initiative will establish a clear baseline of current capabilities, uncover gaps and dependencies, and define a scalable roadmap that supports iterative development and long-term maintainability. The work is intended to ensure all stakeholders have alignment on objectives, constraints, and success metrics before full-scale development begins. The contract is issued by the Texas Department of Information Resources under NAICS code 541512, which corresponds to custom computer programming services. It has no set-aside designation and carries an open response window through June 18, 2031, allowing flexibility in proposal submissions. Performance locations are not specified, indicating potential flexibility in implementation, though work will support Texas state objectives. The contract’s focus on technical discovery positions it as a critical preparatory phase designed to reduce risk and increase efficiency in subsequent Agile initiatives.
