Financial Software Systems

Central Health has issued Request for Information (RFI) 2610-001 to gather market intelligence regarding financial software systems. This RFI is intended to educate the Finance and Procurement departments on current technology capabilities, functionality, integration options, and budgetary costs to assist in developing a formal scope of work for a future Request for Proposals. The information collected will be used to inform a procurement process that may include vendor demonstrations, which are tentatively scheduled to occur at least once per quarter. It is explicitly noted that this RFI is not a solicitation for award and no contract will be issued based solely on the responses received. The desired software solution must support a wide range of core accounting and specialized functions, including accounts payable, accounts receivable, procurement, grant tracking, capital project management, and fixed asset management. Key technical requirements include compliance with GASB and FASB standards, HIPAA-compliant data center security, and robust audit trails. The system must also demonstrate strong integration capabilities via API with existing platforms such as UKG, Concur, JP Morgan, Agiloft, EPIC, and Snowflake. Additionally, the software should offer automation features like electronic three-way document matching and the ability to track HUB vendor spend and NAICS codes at the transaction level. The RFI was issued on September 30, 2025, with a final response deadline of September 30, 2026. Respondents are encouraged to submit their information through Bidnet, which is the preferred method, though printed copies may be delivered to the Central Health Purchasing Office in Austin, Texas, provided the procurement authority is contacted in advance. The procurement process includes specific milestones for question submissions and quarterly demonstration completions to ensure a thorough evaluation of potential solutions.
