What the buyer is requesting
Details
Swan Hill Rural City Council (Council) invites suitably qualified and experienced organisations to provide information regarding the digitalisation and automation of Council's Project Management Governance Framework (PMGF).

Council is seeking information from organisations with demonstrated experience in project governance, business process automation, Microsoft 365 solutions, systems integration, knowledge management, reporting and change management.

This Request for Information (RFI) is intended to assist Council in understanding available market capabilities, potential implementation approaches, indicative costs and associated delivery considerations prior to determining a future procurement activity.
Background information / Compatibility requirements
Details
Council delivers a diverse range of infrastructure, asset renewal, operational and strategic projects across multiple service areas.

To support consistent project governance and delivery practices, Council has established a Project Management Governance Framework (PMGF) which provides the processes, controls, templates, reporting requirements and governance mechanisms used to manage projects throughout their lifecycle.

While the PMGF provides a structured framework for project delivery, many associated processes currently rely on manual document preparation, spreadsheet-based reporting, email-based approvals and decentralised information management practices.

Council is seeking to investigate opportunities to digitally enable and automate elements of the PMGF to improve governance compliance, information accessibility, organisational learning, reporting efficiency and decision-making.

Council's preference is to leverage existing investments within the Microsoft 365 ecosystem wherever practical. However, Council is also interested in understanding whether supplementary platforms, tools or technologies may provide additional value.

Information obtained through this RFI will assist Council in defining project scope, procurement requirements, implementation options and indicative budget estimates for a future PMGF digitalisation initiative.
