Retailer Partner Management System
Status: Oregon Lottery is currently drafting the solicitation documents.
The Lottery is in the process of modernizing its business applications. A step in this process is for Lottery to move away from 3 legacy, disparate, and feature lacking applications that support its retail business to a modern and integrated system that enables better service.
Lottery is seeking a cloud-based technology solution and a services partner to be a long-term business enabler and assist it through a series of modernization efforts centered around providing an integrated approach to customer relationship management and partner account management to ensure that our retail partners are an important conduit of our customer-obsessed mindset and culture.
In May 2021, Lottery received funding approval to advance this project, over the next year Lottery intends to engage potential partners and make final selections for both a technology solution as well as a services partner. The entire engagement is expected to incorporate multiple projects over a period of years based on a roadmap developed with the selected services partner and Lottery’s identified business needs. The initial engagement and release of a working software solution is planned for Mid-2022.
