An RFQ released Monday from the California Department of Fire and Forestry Protection (CalFIRE) seeks an online solution for the State Fire Training Unit's training and professional certification system for firefighters and other personnel.
"The contractor will provide a streamlined database management system to incorporate a business office solution with records management and classroom management solutions within the SFT," the RFQ says.
Quote submissions are due June 10.
The project will replace the existing Class and Certification Data System (CaCDS) and implement a new data warehouse.
The current application is at end-of-life and uses a FoxPro data and application engine that Microsoft no longer supports, CalFIRE says. The system supports 50 academies and 4,300 instructors, and has issued approximately 125,000 certifications, according to the department.
