Lincoln Electric System is seeking a replacement for its field work-management application, including software licensing and implementation services. - Buyer: Lincoln Electric System (LES), a municipal electric utility in Nebraska; Procurement Department, City of Lincoln. - Procurement: Mobile work-management software and implementation to replace SAP Work Manager. No specific proposed product, part number, user count, or device quantity is identified. - OEMs and named technologies: SAP (SAP Work Manager, SAP EAM, SAP ECC, SAP S/4HANA, SAP IS-U), Esri (ArcGIS), Microsoft (Microsoft 365 Power Apps, Entra ID), and Google (Google Maps). SAP and Esri are core integration platforms; LES does not prescribe a replacement-software OEM. - Other named vendors/prospective bidders: AlphaOak; AlxTel, Inc.; ArborMetrics Solutions LLC; ARCOS; CGI; Cognizant Technology Solutions U.S. Corporation; DocPoint Solutions; EPI-USE America, Inc.; Sew.ai; Improving; JAYANAS LLC; Havensight Consulting; MCG Energy Solutions, LLC; Prime Vendor Inc.; SAP America, Inc.; SevenOutsource; TRC Companies; and Zayo Group LLC. - Requested product: Cloud-hosted, browser-accessible and/or mobile work-management software, with license pricing requested for Years 1–5. It must support Android, Windows, and/or Apple devices, including offline work and synchronization. - Functional requirements: Create and execute SAP work orders and notifications; record crew labor and materials; support barcode scanning and meter workflows; use digital forms and attachments; display GIS maps and location information; and provide configurable roles, workflows, administration, and dashboards. - Integration and safeguards: SAP remains the enterprise asset, financial, customer, and meter-data system of record; Esri ArcGIS remains the geospatial system of record. Requirements include readiness for SAP ECC-to-S/4HANA transition, U.S.-based hosting, encryption, access controls, audit logs, backups, disaster recovery, availability commitments, and LES ownership of its data. Optional AI capabilities are also addressed. - Services requested: Discovery and design, project management, configuration, integration, implementation, testing and acceptance, training and materials, go-live stabilization, post-go-live support, and closeout documentation. Pricing also requests milestone costs, travel and other costs, optional services, and hourly rates for project management, technofunctional consulting, and development/programming. - Schedule and term: The project is expected to start in 2027, with go-live required in 2028 before the incumbent application reaches end of life. The pricing worksheet requests five years of license pricing, but does not establish a confirmed contract term or annual-subscription structure. - Contract requirements: Contractors must protect LES confidential information and comply with LES facility, personnel, network, access, and safety requirements. The standard service agreement and security terms apply; quantities and costs are not provided.
