RFQ-ITS 26-0063 Project Portfolio Management (PPM) Dashboard

The California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection is seeking a solution to enhance its Project Portfolio Management capabilities through the implementation of a robust PPM Dashboard built within its existing Microsoft 365 environment, leveraging Microsoft Planner Pro and Power BI. The Department's Project Management Office requires an integrated system that enables comprehensive tracking of project progress, resource allocation, financial expenditures, schedule metrics, and identified risks or issues across all current and future initiatives. The solution must deliver consistent, executive-level dashboards that provide clear visibility into portfolio health and performance, ensuring leadership has timely, accurate insights to inform decision-making and strategic planning. The system must seamlessly integrate with current tools and support data entry and reporting workflows without disrupting existing operations. Responses are due by August 26, 2026, at 2:00 PM Pacific Time, with the solicitation issued under number 0000039983 and posted on August 5, 2026. The procurement is open to qualified vendors capable of delivering a scalable, secure, and user-friendly PPM dashboard tailored to CAL FIRE’s operational needs. The primary point of contact for inquiries is Charles Jackson-Kirkpatrick, and all work is to be performed in California. This initiative is critical to improving project oversight, enhancing transparency, and aligning departmental efforts with organizational goals through standardized reporting and real-time analytics.
