The City of San Diego is conducting market research to identify qualified vendors that can deliver an enterprise‑wide Geographic Information System (GIS) platform, associated solutions, and ongoing implementation and support services. The RFI seeks detailed information on functional coverage, migration and implementation costs, licensing models, integration capabilities, and compliance with City IT standards (including Okta SSO, WCAG 2.1 AA, and U.S. data residency). Respondents must submit a single searchable PDF (≤ 50 MB) and accompanying Excel workbooks via the PlanetBids portal, including a signed cover sheet and optional hard‑copy copies. No contract will be awarded from this RFI; the City will use the responses to shape a future competitive solicitation.
• Core functional areas requested include platform hosting, web‑mapping/app development, field/mobile data capture, imagery/remote sensing, 3D/digital‑twin, utility/network modeling, spatial analytics, AI/ML, and public‑open‑data portals.
• Mandatory technical requirements: Okta single sign‑on (SAML 2.0/OIDC), 256‑bit encryption (HIPAA/FIPS 140‑2), monthly patching, 24‑hour remediation of high‑severity vulnerabilities, and 90‑day post‑contract data retention.
• Integration must support a long list of existing City systems (SAP, Salesforce, PowerPlan, Snowflake, Geotab, Nearmap, etc.) and the current Esri ArcGIS ecosystem, with optional custom‑application migration.
