5. In the Vehicle Operator Data Section- What is the Data Source who will maintain
the module information and how often? Specifically the MVR and CDL Drug
Testing. Will we have historical files to maintain?
MVR’s and Drug & Alcohol testing documentation is currently maintained
in MS Excel spreadsheet format and maintained by the DOT coordinator
(1 person) on a daily basis. City records retention policy applies to these
records.
6. Occupational Medical Surveillance Section- Who is the Data Source who will
maintain the module information and how often? This data must be maintained
and or archived for the lifetime of the employee in some cases. will we have
historical files to maintain? What is a JDE.
We currently have no data source for this information and will be utilizing
this product to create the record. However there may be hard copy data
pulled from various sources we will want to place into the product in
creating the database. This portion of the product will be utilized by Risk
Management staff only and totals 5 employees on a daily basis. Yes, we
do understand the longevity of the records retention requirements. JDE is
an acronym for JD Edwards, an Oracle Corporation product.

windows system? If so can you list them? We are particularly interested in reports
surrounding the following requirements.

requirements:

summary information, as selected and grouped by user

13. Does City of Fort Collins prefer a SaaS system or does City of Fort Collins plan to

systems into the new system?
Yes
15. If yes, how many data sets exist to be converted? Please list number of data sets
and system/format of each.
The City utilizes JD Edwards as a City wide standard. We do not
anticipate at this time utilizing anything other than employee name and
identification numbers to be downloaded to the RMIS. Currently the City
uses MS Excel spreadsheets for historical records of most safety
programs. The City also utilizes an LMS for training records. We do not
anticipate utilizing this system as part of the RMIS.

version of OHM into the new system?
If yes, how many data sets exist to be converted?
Does the data set include custom reports?

One of the keys features the City of Fort Collins is in need of, is to have
the data placed into the TPA database and regularly
converted/downloaded into the RMIS system to avoid duplicating work
efforts by risk management staff.
17. In lieu of a contract provision permitting the City of Fort Collins to terminate without
cause, is the City of Fort Collins agreeable to a service contract that does not
contain such a provision; rather, a service contract which affords an initial
guaranteed minimum commitment term of one (1) year with the option for the City
of Fort Collins to renew annually for one (1) year terms until such time four (4)
annual term options are fulfilled?
The City would need to be able to terminate the agreement without cause
but you may provide suggested language.

so, can you please describe the specifics of that system? Vendor Name, System
version, data base, DB size.
The City is not currently utilizing an RMIS system
19. We assumes that all terms and conditions can / will be negotiated between the City
and the “Vendor of Choice” at which time that vendor is identified. Please confirm
that it is not necessary at this time to provide redlines to the provided “Sample
Professional Services Agreement”.

(such as RS Means) as part of standard module” means?

time depending on the season, what percentage of these people would require a
user account?
10 Total Count employees will require user accounts at this time
25. Is it expected that all system applications will be rolled out in a single phase, or is it
the City’s intention to roll out the applications in sequence? If so what are the top
priorities for the initial release?

“Specifications. However, should the system chosen through the RFP
process is cost prohibitive given current budget allocations, the City may
Addendum 1 – 7493 Risk Management Software Page 6 of 6
decide to only utilize specific applications in order of business need: 1-
Occupational Medical Surveillance Module, 2-Facility Audit Module, 3-
Property Module, 4-Incident Claims Module, 5-Dashboard, Reports &
Search Functions, 6-Fleet / Driver Module, 7-Vehicle Operators Data
Module,
26. Can you identify which insures/TPAs we will need to convert data from and the
frequency (daily, monthly, quarterly etc.)?
CCMSI is currently the TPA for the City. This could change as providers
change over contract period. Data exchanges are anticipated to occur
weekly.
27. How are new claims/incidents reported today? Does the City want the new RMIS
system for initial claim/incident intake?
Reports of incident and injury are reported to Risk Management both
electronically or hard copy. Data from these reports are then input into
the TPA database. The intent is that the City of Fort Collins will continue
with this procedure, but to eliminate duplication of work, data will
regularly be downloaded from the TPA database to the RMIS system
electronically.
28. Do you have any more information on the City’s Audit needs? For example, what
type of Audits will need to be created, do you have existing audit forms you would
like to use?
We have our own audit form that is unique to our environment and we
would like that to be incorporated into the RMIS. Current audits include
hazard identification as well as administrative P&P audits and how they
are incorporated into work practices. Any additional audit forms created,
ie. Driver audits will be created in-house specific to the unique work
environment. Audit results reporting, reports delivery in PDF format,
photo downloads, follow-up / records of completion, e-mail notifications /
reminders, etc. Our current in-house auditing system scores individual
audited items based on a scale of 0-3. 0=N/A, 1=Fail, 2=Pass, 3=Best
Practice. Scoring should total at completion of audit.
29. Under the Vehicle Operator Data Module Function section, a question references
weights and scores based on drivers infractions. Do you have any more details
around the functional needs (ie: is this a report based on an algorithm calculation)?
The City does not currently utilize scoring of MVR records, but the intent
is to incorporate a system based on Colorado points system that would
identify at risk drivers with a basic scoring system where X to X = not
allowed to drive, X to X = Must attend driver training and X to X = allowed
to drive City vehicles. RMIS system should provide a basic addition
calculation from data input for each driver to identify scoring.
