Dear Industry Partners,
Greetings from TESDA!
TESDA has started the implementation of ICT Projects, based on its approved Information Systems Strategic Plan for CY 2016-2017. One of the projects is the development of the application systems for the agency, known as TESDA Mission Critical Information Systems (TMCIS). (Please see attached for the description of the information systems). The total budget for this project is Php22,000,000.00 as published in our Agency Procurement Plan (APP). Please note that the APP value may still change.
Initially, there are seven (7) application systems based on the services and programs offered by TESDA, However, industry partners may provide additional inputs to improve the scope and functionality of the systems.
The components will include: a) Software and Development Programming; b) Supply of Hardware (servers only) and Systems Software products; c) Database Migration Services; d) Training; e) Change Management Services; and f) Security, Vulnerability, Scanning and assessment penetration.
We are issuing this Request-for-Information (RFI), to gather additional relevant inputs for the finalization of the Terms of Reference (TOR). This is to ensure successful tender for the said project and quality service that will be provided by the industry partners.
May we request for your reply on or before Monday, 20 June 2016 via e-mail to the Labor Market Information Division/Planning Office, the project proponent office: mislmid@tesda.gov.ph. Kindly FAX also a copy to +63 893-19-66. To ensure we receive your reply.
Thank you for your kind attention and usual cooperation!
Very truly yours,
MARISSA G. LEGASPI

OTHER RELEVANT INFORMATION FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF TMCIS
• Open, non-proprietary, whenever necessary or required, TMCIS Information System should have superior LAN and WAN performance, highly secured features/functionalities and uses agile software development techniques, i.e. spiral methodology; special emphasis is on fast and accurate reporting of data and information for policy and decision-making purposes by TESDA; uses web-enabled workflow system to connect the head offices, regional offices and other stakeholders;
• Interoperability features or with ready interface facilities that will enable DOLE, CHED, DEPED, DTI, LGUs, NAMRIA and other government agencies that share data/information with TESDA;
• Should have the computer-assisted manual procedures to assure an alternate/backup and/or complementary system in case of total or partial breakdown of the computer-based LAN and WAN systems. This work includes the formulation of corresponding processes, procedures and policies. Backup and synchronization utilities should also be developed.
