RFI for Capital Planning Software Solution

General: The Texas Facilities Commission manages over fourteen (14) million square feet of state-owned properties including office spaces, storage areas, warehouses, schools, medical labs, parking lots, and garages throughout the state. TFC does this with a combination of in-house and contracted staff for the various specialties and trades needed to build, support and maintain these properties. TFC's Planning and Design Division is responsible for long-range facility planning, conducting facility condition assessments, prioritizing the State's deferred maintenance backlog, and developing capital budgets in support of legislative appropriations requests. Any resulting software capability is intended to serve as a decision-support tool for TFC within their current statutory role and is not intended to establish new regulatory authority, policy-making functions, or ongoing service obligations beyond those already assigned to and resourced by TFC. Purpose: The purpose of this RFI is to solicit information from certified software vendors, resellers, and implementers on: Capabilities of commercially available capital planning software. Typical licensing, pricing, and implementation models for such software. Typical support model, staffing and budgetary needs to maintain the solution. Recommendations on how the State of Texas should approach implementation to ensure complete functionality. Common challenges to avoid when selecting and implementing this type of software. Capabilities to support space inventory management, space allocation and assignment tracking by occupying agency, and space utilization/consolidation planning integrated with facility condition and capital planning data.
