The City of Des Moines is issuing a non‑binding Request for Information (RFI) to gather details about commercially available investment management software and associated support services. The goal is to understand market capabilities, estimate costs, and potentially shape a future solicitation for a solution that can track individual investments, cash flows, bank balances, provide GASB‑compliant reporting, integrate with general‑ledger/ERP systems, and support AI‑driven functions. Respondents must submit a sample implementation plan, SLA, and detailed responses to functional and technical questions covering data import/export, automated workflows, ad‑hoc reporting, market pricing, AI features, hosting, training, and customer service. No pricing proposals are required, though publicly available license costs may be included.
