Massachusetts DOR RFI for migrating network file shares to Microsoft SharePoint

The Massachusetts Department of Revenue is gathering vendor input for a possible migration of its network shared drives to Microsoft SharePoint. - Government buyer: Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Executive Office for Administration and Finance (A&F), Department of Revenue (DOR); A&F Information Technology (A&F IT) would manage the project. - OEM and platform: Microsoft is the named OEM; Microsoft SharePoint is the intended destination platform. No other OEMs or vendors are named in the opportunity. - Environment: Approximately 30 TB of files across 23 servers and 730 top-level folders, used by 12 DOR business units. DOR intends to decommission the network drives after migration. - Requested vendor input: Describe the migration approach, review and validation process, project phases and estimated timeframe, staffing, communications and scheduling for DOR staff, software tools, and an estimated cost. - Important requirement: Microsoft Purview data-classification labels and data loss prevention (DLP) are in place and must be applied before files move to a cloud environment, consistent with DOR's stated IRS-related requirement. - Procurement status: This is an information-gathering RFI for planning; it does not itself procure migration services or commit the Commonwealth to a future solicitation or award.
