Common use of Ongoing Improvements Clause in Contracts

Ongoing Improvements. Since the Department is vitally interested in investing in solutions which have long-life and upgradeability to provide continuing and enhanced capabilities over time, including migration to evolving standards, each Bidder must describe its solution’s ability to adapt to or to incorporate improved technology. Fully describe how you would identify progressions in technology and integrate them into products previously installed at customer sites. Examples might be incorporation of an emerging wireless standard or upgrades to the core operating system and application software. The Department is seeking a solution that adheres to industry standards and open systems architectures as versus proprietary solutions. Each Bidder must identify whether its solution includes proprietary aspects and, if it does, will provide in its proposal a schedule and a plan to the Department for the Provider’s migration to industry standards - or state that it intends to continue pursuing its proprietary approach.
