Questions to proceed with SWAN RFP

Before the proposer considers responding to SWAN’s RFP, it is required that the two questions below be answered YES in order for the proposal to be considered by SWAN.

If the proposer has answered no to one or both questions, do not submit a proposal to SWAN. Any proposal received that has answered no to either of these questions will be rejected.

If the proposer has answered yes to each of these questions, you will be prompted to list these libraries below.
 

References

To assist SWAN in evaluating the success of similar ILS migrations and understanding their potential impact on member libraries and operations, the Vendor must provide three customer references that meet the following criteria:

  • References should be as large as or larger than SWAN in terms of database size and user characteristics, as outlined in Sections 5.2 and 5.3.
  • Preference will be given to consortia, especially those that do not impose standard policies on their members.

These references will be used to assess the Vendor’s experience and the potential impact of the proposed solution on SWAN and its member libraries.
