1. SECTION 1 - REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS

1.1. Introduction

Kenya Commercial Bank Limited (hereinafter referred to as “the Bank”) is a leading

commercial banking group in the East African region, renowned for its diversity and growth .

In addition to Kenya, it has other subsidiaries namely; KCB (Tanzania) limited, a banking

subsidiary operating in Tanzania, KCB (Uganda) limited, a banking subsidiary operating in

Uganda, KCB (Sudan) limited, a banking subsidiary operating in Sudan, KCB (Rwanda) limited,

a banking subsidiary operating in Rwanda and KCB Burundi a banking subsidiary operating in

Burundi.

The objective of this RFP is to provide the bank with information about their capability to plan,

install, implement and manage this process from end to end with structured methodologies

and skilled personnel on a fixed time schedule and within budget.

1.2. Aims and Objectives of the project

The bank has embarked on a project to procure and implement a solution for document and record management. Such a system is envisaged to have the following primary features among others:

Document Capture - the ability to scan physical documents and

convert into electronic format.

Document indexing - the ability to assign parameters to a scanned

electronic document in such a way that it is possible manage the

document and retrieve it from an electronic storage.

Workflow - the ability for a scanned and indexed document to

undergo processes that simulate what happens with physical paper

by moving through different persons and stages for review,

comment, approvals, noting, etc.

2014

Page 5: KENYA COMMERCIAL BANK LTD - KCB Bank Group · PDF fileKENYA COMMERCIAL BANK LTD ... The bank has embarked on a project to procure and implement a solution for ... after the final agreement

Records Management - the implementation, for electronic records, of such

processes as retention, archiving and destruction as normally happens with

physical records. The archival as well as the retrieval of achieved documents is as

seamless and fast as possible

Security - the overlay of the defined security processes normally applied to

physical documents onto the electronic documents and processes.

The document management system will have the following benefits for the Bank:

a. Ease of document storage and retrieval for routine use - in many instances in the

course of business several people may need to refer to the same document at

different times. In a pure paper-based system this is achieved by passing the

documents around or making several copies, with the resultant versioning

problem. With the document management system all users can refer to latest

version of the stored image copy of the document and also access earlier versions

as necessary.

b. Ease of workflow for reviews and approval by electronic routing of the image of

the document thus greatly reducing on turn-around times and ensuring the

workflow rules are strictly followed. Such processes as Account Opening and

Credit approvals will be greatly eased by use the DMS.

c. Audit trailing - with a DMS, any document can be related to any other document

in the electronic archive (including references and locators for physical

documents). This will greatly aid the audit process as well resolution of problems.

For example a payment can easily be traced to a voucher and back to an order,

tender document, etc at a click of button. Audit will also be able to audit large parts

of the process without the necessity for time-consuming manual retrieval of large

volumes of documents.

d. Systems integrations - creation of an electronic storage will enable integration of

data between various systems and documents. For example a customers

Accounting Opening documents, will be linked to the customers account, to all

correspondence with that customers, etc thus providing a single view of the

customer available at an authorized user’s computer.

Centre, Shared Services Centre, HR, Securities Documentation Centre etc.

The objective of this RFP is to identify a solution provider who will be able to supply,
