Pre-RFPInformation TechnologyDetected Jun 8, 2026

The Town of Rimbey is implementing a Privacy Management Program to meet new provincial Access to Information and Protection of Privacy legislation adopted in June 2025. Administration has drafted multiple policies (1901–1905) and a new POPA/ATIA bylaw (Bylaw 1028/26) and brought them to the June 8, 2026 Committee of the Whole with a stated legislative compliance deadline of June 11, 2026. This program will require administrative structures, records management processes, access request workflows, training, and fee administration, which typically depend on secure information systems and tools.While the documents focus on policy, the scope implies potential needs for records management software, FOI/ATIP tracking systems, secure data storage, and privacy/compliance training services as the Town moves from policy adoption to day‑to‑day operation. Vendors can position solutions that help the Town operationalize the new program, automate request handling, and maintain compliance with the Acts.

Documents reference Access to Information Act and Protection of Privacy Act, creation of an Access and Privacy Officer role, and ongoing staff training obligations.
