[State Entity Name] Office of Secretary of State [Description of Work] OSS SVRS/ERS Staff Augmentation FY14 The Minnesota Office of Secretary of State (OSS), Elections Division is seeking Professional/Technical Services to augment existing development staff on several active projects involving voter registration and election reporting: OSS created and deployed a new Statewide Voter Registration System (SVRS) in June of 2004, and since that time has continued to maintain and enhance the system. SVRS includes voter registration, absentee balloting, precinct and district maintenance, and other voter-related functionality. Additional features and enhancements are planned for the 2013-14 elections which will need to be substantially complete by November of 2014. SVRS is written in C#/.NET using a Microsoft SQL Server database, and deployed on a web farm. OSS developed an Election Reporting System (ERS) beginning in 2000, using Active Server Pages (ASP) and SQL Server. ERS is written in C#/.NET using an Microsoft SQL Server database. This system is also deployed on the web farm and is responsible for ballot data creation, election night reporting, media file generation, and county reporting. Associated products are the online Polling Place Finder, which allows a voter to view polling locations and current election and ballot data, and the Voter Information Portal (VIP), which provides voters with the ability to look up the status of and update their voter registration or absentee ballot information, and view candidates on their ballot. We currently employ staff to manage, design and develop these applications, but augment our development teams with consultants in order to meet short-term schedules and to provide other skills. The focus of the projects will be to complete and deploy versions of SVRS, ERS and VIP as needed, in time for the 2013 and 2014 Election cycles. Stakeholders include OSS Management and OSS Elections Division. The continuing development of the Statewide Voter Registration System is a central component of the agency strategic plan, given the importance of elections in the state and recent state and federal laws. The Election Reporting System is a visible and critical part of the election process, which provides election data to the media and public.
