COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: This item will be presented to the full board on May 20, 2024.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Identity and access management (IAM) has become the security foundation for a remotely connected world. Identity has become the ultimate control surface, combining context, continuousness and consistency to provide a complete understanding of the identity of the user and the device. This approach enables secure and reliable access by establishing explicit trust in a zero trust world. Recent developments in generative and classic AI are introducing new opportunities and threats that will continue to drive IAM transformation that CapMetro works to stay ahead of as part of our cybersecurity strategy. Gartner has placed World Wide Technology’s Sailpoint solution in the top right corner of their magic quadrant and is one of the top customer recommended identity and access management solutions.
DBE/SBE PARTICIPATION: No SBE goal was assigned to this procurement, which is for software services.
PROCUREMENT: On September 28, 2023, a Request for Proposal (RFP) was issued and formally advertised. By the due date of December 7, 2023, 6 proposals were received. The evaluation team met on December 20, 2023, to discuss the matrix results of evaluations of all proposals and requested oral discussions with three firms.
