From: Minnesota Department Of Administration
Dear Mr. Stecklow,
I received your request for data (see below), for the solicitation, contracts, and payment information related to the Peace Officer Standards and Training Board’s (POST Board) use of a license look up tool. We determined the tool was built under a Contract with Slalom, LLC, Contract #215852/30157, dated 6/21/2022-11/4/2022, for: development and delivery of the Peace Officer Standards and Training Board’s (“Board”) Peace Officer Public Records Search, Display, and Print. We also located Contract 206377, which was used to assess the suitability of the Salesforce platform for use by the POST Board.
The Department of Administration does not maintain the procurement file for those contracts, nor does our office collect payment records for contracts at other agencies. For the procurement file and payment data, please contact the POST Board directly.
A second part of your request was for the current contract between the State of Minnesota and Salesforce for its services that the POST board utilizes. As I understand it, the POST Board uses the Salesforce platform under an enterprise-wide contract, not as a separate contract. Information about how Salesforce is used across the enterprise may be available from MNIT Services, the agency that coordinates IT-related services for the state. I was not able to locate a contract with Salesforce in our agency.
I have provided the courtesy copies of the contracts that were available within my agency’s records. For everything else, you should make your request directly to the POST Board (for solicitation and payment records) or to MNIT regarding its enterprise contract supporting the Salesforce platform.
For the POST Board, you may contact: Erik Misselt, Executive Director. 651-201-7789, erik.misselt@state.mn.us<mailto:erik.misselt@state.mn.us>
