Company Profile
Dominion Voting Systems Inc. (“Dominion”) welcomes the opportunity to present our voting
system, Democracy Suite®1, in response to Request For Proposal issued by the City of
Philadelphia for an Election System.

In today’s election market, Dominion sets itself apart with a commitment to customer service and
the use of superior technology to provide you with the best tools possible to meet your election
needs. With our cutting-edge product, Democracy Suite, Dominion is prepared to equip
Philadelphia with the most reliable, transparent, and accurate voting system technology available.

Dominion is a company that has distinguished itself while pursuing excellence in customer
service by implementing a technical culture focused on achieving the highest levels of accuracy,
reliability and transparency. In 2010, Dominion deepened its roots as a leading company in the
elections industry with the acquisition of assets from both Premier Voting Solutions and Sequoia
Voting Systems. Today, Dominion’s human resource pool of over 280 employees, consisting of
seasoned election veterans and engineering experts has well over 2,000 years of combined
elections experience conducting accurate and successful elections with our customers.

Dominion is headquartered in Denver, CO, with office locations in Toronto, ON, Jamestown and
Endicott, NY, McKinney, TX, and San Leandro, CA. Dominion is strategically positioned in all 4
U.S. continental time zones to support its customer base of over 1,300 jurisdictions in 33 states.
Dominion is one of the largest and most trusted providers of elections technology solutions in the
United States and the world. As an example, during the U.S. Presidential Elections in November
2016, roughly 35% of registered American voters cast their ballots using our equipment.

Local Service & Support


We measure our success by the success of our customers.

Dominion’s project team includes key experienced staff, with extensive expertise in system
implementation, project management and customer service obtained through years of dedicated
work for our customers. The City will also benefit from support by our team in Pennsylvania who
have been providing elections services and support in Philadelphia, and throughout the
Commonwealth for many years.

From complex implementations in large counties to providing comprehensive support for small
counties, Dominion will use leading technology, combined with best practice project
management methodologies and a commitment to customer service, to ensure the highest level of
customer satisfaction.

Accuracy, Accountability and Security

Democracy Suite uses advanced image processing and digital scanning technology to provide a
high level of transparency and to make auditing simple and efficient. Our marginal mark
technology ensures clear voter intent prior to the ballot being cast, giving voters the opportunity
to correct an improperly marked ballot.

Additionally, every single ballot in the election is imaged and appended with Dominion’s
patented AuditMark, a record of how the system interpreted the voter’s intent. With this feature, a
range of election stakeholders including observers, supervisors, candidates, advocates, and
auditors can perform software independent ballot-level auditing. Dominion is the only company
to provide the exclusive AuditMark ballot-level audit trail.

Security from both external and internal threats to the voting system is of paramount importance.
Democracy Suite’s security protocols meet and exceed EAC requirements. All electronic records
are digitally signed, all election records and database files are encrypted, and the entire election
database is hardware encrypted.

End to End Elections Management


Democracy Suite Election Management System

Democracy Suite powers the entire voting system out of a single comprehensive database, with
all the tools needed to simplify and streamline the elections process. All voting channels –
whether voting absentee or overseas, accessible voting, or in-precinct voting – are supported and
powered by Democracy Suite.

All pre-election and post-election tasks take place out of the same database – from ballot
programming to results reporting on Election Night, Democracy Suite is a complete, end-to-end
elections solution. Ballots are all created in the same database, the Election Event Designer
module. Democracy Suite provides a single, powerful and versatile platform for election
management, and is designed to suit the needs and requirements of jurisdictions large, medium,
and small.

Paper Ballot
Democracy Suite includes a paper-based optical scan system. Components – precinct and
accessible – use or create a paper ballot, and every single ballot in the election is imaged and
appended with the AuditMark. The ImageCast optical scan ballot is 8.5” wide and can vary
between 11”-22” in length, and can be printed in four colors.

Precinct Tabulation
With over 100,000 units deployed worldwide, Dominion’s ImageCast Precinct tabulators have
been widely used in elections across North America and internationally for almost a decade. The
ImageCast Precinct is a robust, lightweight, and reliable optical scan tabulator.
At only 14lbs, the ImageCast Precinct is Dominion’s most compact tabulator, with all the
necessary features to meet Pennsylvania requirements. The ImageCast Precinct is designed to be
‘plug and play,’ making set up simple, efficient, and straightforward for operators. It also features

City of Philadelphia
Bid #B1903107
Election System
Page 4 of 247
a user-friendly touchscreen interface for accessing administrative functions and providing voter
feedback messages.

In addition, our Central Count Solution, the ImageCast Central, offers a high speed central count
system that is accurate and highly scalable to meet all of your needs.

Accessible Voting
Dominion’s Democracy Suite was designed to provide a high level of accessibility, enabling all
voters – regardless of ability – to vote in a private, independent and confidential manner. One of
the most exciting components of the proposed system for Philadelphia is the ImageCast X, a
precinct-based ballot marking device that includes accessible voting interfaces.

Fully integrated into the Democracy Suite platform, the ImageCast X takes advantage of
commercially available technologies, and is driven by a robust, secure and flexible application
developed by Dominion. The use of compact, commercially available hardware makes the
ImageCast X a cost-effective and versatile accessible voting solution. It requires less space to
warehouse and is more affordable than larger proprietary solutions, while at the same time
offering full ADA compliance. The ImageCast X features the latest technological advances in
accessible voting technology, providing more options for voters with accessibility needs to vote
privately and independently.

Flexibility & Sustainability


Dominion believes that election officials need solutions that can evolve and adapt to changes that
may occur due to technological advances or legislative mandates Philadelphia can be confident
that we will be a long-term technology partner. Democracy Suite is a modular solution that can be
modified, upgraded, or expanded on a component basis, thus preserving each customer’s
investment.

Dominion’s pursuit of ongoing innovation is fueled by the joint efforts of our employees and the
wisdom of our customers. Our collaborative approach to innovation is what has made us an
industry leader – we are more than an elections vendor, we are a partner.

In addition to working towards enhancing our existing ImageCast product line, moving forward -
and, in line with market demand - Dominion will be focusing on leveraging COTS-based
technologies for our new product offerings. Increasingly, election officials and voters alike expect
to be able to leverage modern, every day technologies. Democracy Suite is leveraging more
commercially available off-the-shelf hardware to deliver greater convenience, transparency, and
accessibility to voters – as well as sustainability and greater efficiency for election officials –
ultimately leading to significant cost-savings for constituents.

In order to continually offer our customers cutting-edge and state-of-the-art technologies,


Dominion conducts annual federal certification campaigns, as well as regular state-level
certification campaigns. We understand that needs and requirements in Philadelphia will continue
to evolve dynamically, and so will our product offering for our Pennsylvania customers.

Elections are Dominion’s only business, and, as such, our business is focused on these core
values: relevant and timely product innovation, and exemplary customer service. Combined, these
values make us the partner of choice for election officials across the United States, and globally.

It is our sincere desire to work with the City of Philadelphia to support the free and fair election
process. We are actively pursuing this business opportunity with confidence in our solution - one
which will meet and exceed requirements and expectations of election administrators and voters
as outlined in the RFP.

As an established election provider in the United States, we have a diverse customer base with
jurisdictions in 19 states that have successfully implemented our Democracy Suite system,
including in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and also in the states of Tennessee, California,
Colorado, Louisiana, Nevada, New Mexico, and New York, among others. We are keenly aware
of the realities involved and what it takes to make a smooth transition to a new voting system
platform and we are prepared to ensure your success.

Being a selected customer support vendor in Pennsylvania for many years, we understand the
local, county and commonwealth-wide election landscape. We firmly believe that we have the
products, resources and capacity to do the job to your complete satisfaction and provide the best
pathway to your continued success.

Please do not hesitate to contact Dominion should you have any questions. We look forward to

3.5 Physical Footprint

3.5.1 Number of Machines


The City currently has 3,735 full-face voting machines, serving a population of
1.05 million registered voters. There are 1,692 divisions and 825-850 polling places
within the City. (The number of registered voters is dynamic and subject to
increase, given the recent population growth within the City of Philadelphia.)

The City anticipates having at least 2 voting machines and 2 electronic poll books
for each polling place. The number of machines required for a given polling place
may be higher, depending on the size (population) of the division(s) associated
with that polling place.

For voting machine suppliers, please provide the following information:

a) An estimate of the number of machines required to replace the City’s


existing machines. Your estimate should be based on queuing theory and
replacement rates or other appropriate methodology. Please include the
rationale for your estimate.

Based on the details above, Dominion has provided the following voting machine and
tabulation hardware, which is detailed on the Pricing Form in Appendix G:

Item Total Methodology


Voting Machines 2,550
ImageCast X with Ballot
Marking Device Printer

Central Tabulation 2 kits


ImageCast Central

Precinct Tabulation 1,135


ImageCast Precinct

As detailed, the above estimates are included in our detailed pricing sheets. We are open to
discussing the estimated unit totals and applicable cost upon request or in response to the Best
And Final Offer phase of the proposal process.

City of Philadelphia
Bid #B1903107
Election System
Page 42 of 247
b) The amount of space required for an individual voting machine to be fully
operational at a polling place. This is the total amount of space required for
the machine and any associated equipment or peripherals required to
operate the machine at a polling place, e.g. table, stand, scanner.

The proposed solution for the voting machine consists of the ImageCast X with Ballot
Marking Device printer, which is designed as a compact unit that fits onto a standard
sized voting booth measuring approximately 6 square feet.

c) Estimated voter throughput based on space requirements for voting


machines at a single polling place.

Our experience in conducting vote center models in other large jurisdictions throughout
the United States indicates the ImageCast X can exceed 125 voters per day per machine.
However, the throughput for individual polling places will ultimately depend on a
number of factors including the number of voting machines and length and complexity of
the ballot. Dominion’s proposed solution has the flexibility to layout the ballot in an
efficient manner and the intuitive properties of the ImageCast X maximizes efficiency
and voter throughput.

d) For EPB suppliers, please provide the following information:

a. An estimate of the number of poll books required to support the City’s


voting population and number of polling places. Please provide the
rationale for your recommendation, e.g. ratio of voters to poll books.
b. The amount of space required for each poll book to be fully operational
within a polling place. This is the total amount of space required for the
machine and any associated equipment or peripherals required to operate
the machine at a polling place, e.g. table, stand, scanner.
c. Estimated voter throughput based on space requirements for poll books
at a single polling place.

Not applicable. For the purposes of this RFP, Dominion is not providing a pollbook
solution.

3.5.2 Warehouse/Storage Facility


The City plans to secure a new warehouse location for storage of election system
hardware and equipment. The City may optionally request the vendor to identify
warehouse space to be leased for all necessary components of this solution.

Describe the storage facility requirements for the hardware and equipment
required for your solution. In addition to square footage, please indicate any
requirements regarding climate, security, and electricity.

Please provide an estimate of the total square footage required for the complete
proposed solution, in addition to square footage required for individual
components. The square footage must be sufficient not just for storage of the
proposed solution but must also consider the space required for maintenance and

Dominion is confident that the reduced footprint of the voting machines would drastically reduce
the square footage required for warehousing the new election system for the City of Philadelphia.
Utilizing creative warehousing space saving solutions such as custom designed carts and shelving
system similar to other large entities such as
Dominion estimates a warehouse
space of 15,000 square feet to 20,000 square feet would adequately store the new voting system.

Ultimately the overall footprint of the system will depend on several factors including, but not
limited to, total number of machines and residual items purchased and the customized storage
solution selected by the City (examples and options provided below).

With consideration of the testing requirement for Philadelphia, additional space may be required
depending on the preferred method of preparation and testing. Options can include preparing and
testing simultaneously or performing the preparation and testing over a period of time, in which
case the voting units could be placed on carts and stored vertically on racks.

For example, in other jurisdictions, election officials run the Pre-Election Logic and Accuracy
Test weeks before the election on a small group of voting units at a time in a “Testing Area”
similar to the picture below of the warehouse. recently

We also work with , and other large


entities, to work out the logistics of warehousing and testing elections equipment, including
security aspects such as camera placement and badge access doors.

To the left is a picture of the individual carts, which
can hold 10 ImageCast X voting units, along with
their accompanying printers. These carts are also
used to deliver the voting units to the voting
locations. While the system is very efficient on
space considerations, we would look to work with
the City to customize a warehouse, storage and
testing solution based on the current election rules.

If all ImageCast X units must be accessible for


testing at one time, it makes sense to store them
logistically so that they are accessible at one time.
We have the ability to offer several commercially
available storage and transportation options carts
that will efficiently provide for storage in the
warehouse and transportation to the voting locations.

The example provided above represents a durable


and space efficient option featuring an open front
cart on heavy duty casters that is rugged enough to
withstand storage and transportation activities. This
option offers maximum protection to the voting units
against hard jolts and damage which guards against
critical delays, costly damage and time impacting repairs.

Another option includes a cart that can be customized to your specifications. The cart rolls on
four sturdy casters and a front door provides for easy access to the voting units. Side handles aid
in movement and provide points to secure the units in transport. It can be designed to hold 4
ImageCast X units and their BMD printers.

City of Philadelphia
Bid #B1903107
Election System
Page 46 of 247
These carts would be designed to allow two carts to be rolled under an 8 foot long workbench.
The carts would be aligned to open, one on one side of the workbench and the other on the other
side, placing 4 units would go on one side of the workbench from one cart and the other 4 on the
other side of the workbench. A power cord with 8 receptacles would hang over the work
bench. All 8 ImageCast X units can be plugged in at the same time allowing the batteries to
charge. Below is a picture of a sample workbench.

Using this combination of transportation cart and workbench for the Working Space and Storage
Area for the ImageCast X with BMD, it will take 30 square feet of floor space per workbench.
There will need to be 30 square feet in addition for aisles and spacing per workbench. A total of
60 square feet per 8 ImageCast X voting units. That is 7.5 square feet per voting unit.

Other options for precincts requiring fewer voting units are pelican cases or rolling cases that can
be used to transport 2 ImageCast X voting devices and the accompanying BMD printer. The
varying sizes of available pelican cases and rolling bags also allow for customizable foam inserts
that can accommodate associated hardware such as the ImageCast Central, scanners, activation
stations, and other materials.

There are numerous other transportation cases and carts in a variety of configurations available on
the commercial market. For example, working with the Dominion developed a
fully customized all-in-one Election Supply Carrier that held multiple voting units, supplies, and
everything needed to set up operations in individual precincts. We would look to work with the
City of Philadelphia to create a fully customizable and scalable solution to meet your
transportation and storage needs.

Environmental Storage Conditions


For optimal product life, storage limitations should adhere to the following specifications:

ImageCast X

• Storage Temperature min/max: -20°C ~ 60°C


• Operating and/Storage Conditions (Relative Humidity): From 0% ~ 90% RH
noncondensing
• Pack the ImageCast X tablet into its provided packaging box with foam inserts to provide
vibration and impact protection.

In order to obtain maximum battery life, periodic maintenance of the internal backup battery is
important. It is therefore recommended that the internal back-up battery is charged for at least
12 hours every eight months when the unit is in power off mode/storage. It is equally important
to ensure that the internal battery is fully charged before the unit is deployed on Election Day.
The Battery Status is indicated using visual indicators once the ImageCast X is powered up.

To charge the battery, connect the unit to a standard 120V, 60Hz AC Power Supply and wait for
the device to power up. Insert Technician Smart Card and enter the corresponding PIN. Once
the Technician menu is available, select "Power off" and wait for the device to power down.

ImageCast Precinct

• Storage Temperature min/max: From -25°C - 60°C


• Operating and/Storage Conditions (Relative Humidity): From 20% - 80% RH non-
condensing
• Place the tabulator inside the re-sealable bag into the provided packaging box with foam
inserts to provide vibration and impact protection.
• Store the packaged tabulator box under conditions specified.
• Alternatively, leave the tabulator on the Ballot Box but place the Ballot Box dust cover over
it to keep it free from environmental elements.
• Store the tabulator (and Ballot Box, if applicable) in a dust-free, clean environment.
• Perform periodic charging of the back-up battery module for 12 hours every 9 months.
• The tabulators should not be stacked on top of one another for storage unless they are in their
respective carrying cases or packaging boxes (Suggested Maximum Stack
= 4 Boxes High)

3.6 Shipping
Please describe the shipping requirements for transporting hardware and
equipment. Include requirements for initial transport to the City’s warehouse and
from the warehouse to polling places.

Drayage & Deployment

Based on direct experience with large entities such as

Dominion understands
the logistical aspects of deploying elections equipment on a large scale. However, each customer
and warehouse has a unique set of circumstances that requires some modification.

The ImageCast X units are put into the storage position and placed along with the accompanying
BMD printers and power supply into the transportation cart located right underneath the
workbench they were prepared and tested on. The Delivery Label that is printed off of the
Democracy Suite laptop in the warehouse is placed on the Transportation Cart. The cart is sealed
for security and taken to a holding area in the order that they will be loaded on the trucks.

The Transportation Carts are 42” X 26”. In recent times, the drayage companies have been using
several different size vans with ramps. Typically they are 16 to 20 feet long. For this example we
will use the 20 foot van. Its cargo space is 7’ 4’’ wide by 16’ 8” long (88” X 200”). 112
ImageCast X voting devices could be shipped in 14 Transportation Carts on a single van.

This above logistical plan for warehousing and transportation is just an example of how we
transportation could work in Philadelphia. We know that warehousing and deployment does not
fit into the one size fits all category. As we have done in the past with other large entities such as

we will sit down with you to develop the best


solution for you for Philadelphia.

3.7 Disposal
Please describe any services your organization offers for disposal of existing
voting equipment.

Dominion will work with the City of Philadelphia to develop a plan for proper removal. In an
effort to observe all individual client needs with consideration of all local, state, and Federal
requirements, we coordinate disposal and recycling efforts during the implementation phase.

Dominion’s program is beneficial to our customers as Dominion manages the safe removal of the
equipment, and also reduces the amount of landfill waste that would otherwise result.

We are happy to work with the City to develop a customized disposal and recycling plan that is in
line with the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania’s ITP-SEC015 relating to cleaning of electronic
media, surplus or recycling of IT resources, reassigning electronic devices, cleaning electronic
media, failed media, and chain of custody procedures. Our plan works in conjunction with the
phase in of new equipment and properly considers the volume and types of hardware and specific
materials to be disposed of and recycled.

3.8 Architecture / Infrastructure
3.8.1 Architecture Model
Describe the software architecture of the proposed solution (two-tier or three-tier
environment, etc.). Describe each architecture layer and provide a diagram of the
system architecture.

Democracy Suite Election Management System is the only fully integrated voting solution on the
market. Democracy Suite has the ability to drive all voting channels that a jurisdiction may
utilize.

Election info from the voter registration system is transferred to the Election Event Designer
module. From there, election officials use the Election Event Designer module to lay out and
prepare paper ballots. Once the ballot is laid out, a camera-ready PDF file is produced. Election
Event Designer drives the preparation of the election data for the ImageCast X, ImageCast
Precinct, and ImageCast Central units. It also prepares the election files for the central scanners
and adjudication.

Once ballots are marked and tabulated at Vote Centers or polling stations, centrally scanned
ballots are tabulated and imported into the Results Tally and Reporting module. Results Tally
and Reporting will output election night consolidated reports, including but not limited to the
Election Summary Report.

The following diagrams provides a visual representations of the workflow and the network of
Dominion’s proposed solution, including all facets of the ballot production and ballot marking
process.

City of Philadelphia
Bid #B1903107
Election System
Page 52 of 247
3.8.2 Network Design and Administration
The City Commissioners’ Office currently has several private networks that link
computers within and across 8 remote transmission centers (RTCs) for election
night reporting. The RTCs are located throughout the city; two (2) are central /
headquarters locations for election related operations. Election night results are
transmitted from RTCs to a designated website owned by the City
Commissioners.

The selected Applicant will be expected to manage the City Commissioners’


private network(s) for election night reporting.

Prior to implementation of a solution, the selected Applicant may be asked to


evaluate the City Commissioners’ existing network infrastructure for election
night reporting and make a recommendation to either maintain the existing
infrastructure, upgrade it or replace it. If an upgrade or replacement is
recommended, the Applicant will be responsible for network design and
implementation. In any case, the Applicant will be responsible for network
administration.

Given the Applicant’s potential role in network design and implementation,


Proposals must include the following:

1) Detailed specifications for recommended network setup and related


equipment

Dominion has the ability to have the tabulation, adjudication and scanner workstations
connected to servers via a closed local-area network. In fact, a closed, local-area network
is the preferred implementation practice as it allows for concurrent scanning, adjudication
and tabulation without the need for direct manual transfer of results files and data.

The ImageCast Central workstation is comprised of a Dell all-in-one computer and


Canon G-1130 scanner, which is connected to the computer via USB. The Adjudication
workstation is comprised of a Dell computer and monitor.

ImageCast Central and Adjudication workstations can be networked together. Up to fifty


(50) ImageCast Central workstations and fifty (50) Adjudication workstations can be
networked together at the same time. The ImageCast Central scanning stations and
Adjudication stations are connected with a Gigabit Ethernet network.

2) Performance standards (throughput, processing volumes, response times,


etc.) that the system will satisfy if installed on the recommended
equipment.

Dominion’s products are highly scalable as voting machines (ImageCast X with BMD)
and central processing scanners (Canon G1130 scanner for the ImageCast Central

City of Philadelphia
Bid #B1903107
Election System
Page 54 of 247
system) can easily be added or redirected to adapt to any changing needs of the City.
Below we provide general throughput information

ImageCast Central
The Canon DR-G1130 is a solid, consistent scanner which can scan ballots 8.5” by 11”
and up to 22”. The maximum throughput is 4,000 ballots per hour.

ImageCast X BMD
Our experience in conducting elections throughout the United States indicates that the
ImageCast X has the flexibility to layout the ballot to increase throughput. Dominion
believes that an average voter will take the same amount of time to mark and print a
ballot as was done previously with Direct Recorder Electronic units, 125 voters per day
per machine. Therefore four (4) ImageCast X units per vote center would be sufficient in
managing the workflow in a Vote Center.

ImageCast Adjudication Workstations


For a fully developed adjudication system using 50 workstations, similar to other large
entities using the Adjudication functionality, the system can provide an approximate
throughput of 3,600 ballots per hour. However, the actual number of Adjudication
workstations can be scaled for increased or decreased volume based on the City’s
assessment.

3) Security measures to minimize vulnerabilities and mitigate risk of security


threats

Dominion implements security protocols that meet or exceed EAC VVSG 2005
requirements. All of Dominion’s security protocols are designed and implemented to
stay current with the rapidly evolving EAC security requirements set forth by various
iterations of the VVSG. Dominion’s security technology is unprecedented insofar as it
takes into account every aspect and every component of the Democracy Suite platform.
This includes – but is not limited to – the full encryption of election projects, iButton
security keys, Compact flash cards, election data, software applications, elections results
files, and data transmission. In addition, Dominion developed a custom ballot
authentication system built around an (optional) secure ballot paper stock and in-tabulator
authenticators.

Dominion confirms that all data-at-rest will not be stored outside of the continental
United States.

Democracy Suite integrates a role-based access control system for all software and
hardware components. Each user accessing the system is the member of one of the
predefined or custom-made roles. Each role has its own set of permissions, or actions
that users of that role are allowed to perform. This access control approach provides
authentication and authorization services and can be granular according to the
jurisdiction’s needs and organization. Complete user and role membership management
is integrated within the Democracy Suite EMS Election Event Designer client module.

City of Philadelphia
Bid #B1903107
Election System
Page 55 of 247
The Democracy Suite EMS platform implements role-based user management for
provisioning access control mechanisms on each election project. Managing access
control policies is integrated within the User Management activity of the EMS EED
module. This activity is permitted only for users with administrative privileges.

Democracy Suite utilizes hardware-based security tokens (iButton security keys) in the
process of access control for ImageCast tabulators. These password paired hardware
tokens contain data encryption information used in the voting process (encryption and
signing keys). Without a valid security token, and paired access password, the
administrative functions of election tabulators are effectively locked.

All of these activities and controls, and more described below in response to specific
section requirements, are integrated within the Democracy Suite platform. Dominion
utilizes authentication and authorization protocols that meet EAC VVSG 2005 standards.
In addition, Dominion’s solution relies on industry-standard security features to ensure
that the correct users based on a user role or group are granted the correct privileges.
Finally, each jurisdiction is responsible for ensuring that only authorized personnel have
access to both the system and tools used for installation and configuration purposes. All
back end system, and tabulator operations are continuously and completely logged at all
times to maintain a complete record of all election-related processes.

Proper password management relies on multiple activities and controls, namely:

• Input data validation


• Data quality
• Utilization of one-way (hash) cryptography
• Computer generated passwords for greater entropy and protection from dictionary
attacks
• Different password strength profiles for different user levels
• Utilization of hardware tokens for storing user credentials (two-level authentication
security: something you know and something you have)
• User state machine (initial, active, inactive)

The system does not enforce aging or complexity, but Dominion recommends
establishing best practices that meet the City’s requirements and are in line with IT
policy.

To protect any modification of software by malicious users, the Democracy Suite


Election Management System integrates the Microsoft .NET Framework code signing
process, within which, Dominion Voting digitally signs every executable and library
(DLL) during the software build procedure. After the installation of Election
Management software, only successfully verified EMS software components will be
available for use. Digital signature verification is performed by the .NET Framework
runtime binaries. If a malicious user tries to replace or modify any EMS executables or
library files, the digital signature verification will fail and the user will not be able to start
the EMS application.

City of Philadelphia
Bid #B1903107
Election System
Page 56 of 247
Data generated by the Democracy Suite platform is protected by the deployment of FIPS-
approved symmetric AES and asymmetric RSA encryption. The Democracy Suite
Election Management System uses these techniques to encrypt election files prior to their
use on ImageCast tabulators. Once the polls have been closed, the ImageCast tabulators
encrypt all of the results files prior to transmitting them back to EMS.

SHA-256 hashes are used for all data integrity and verification. Should an intrusive
process or altering of any file occur, hash values will be, in turn, altered as well. With
that said, any presence of an intrusive process will be detected, as the hashes of any
altered data will not match the value initially determined.

For communication channels (as well as data storage) a combination of security


techniques for data integrity, authenticity and confidentiality is implemented. Democracy
Suite integrates AES or RSA encryption algorithms for data confidentiality, along with
SHA-256 and HMAC digital signatures for data signing (data authenticity and integrity).

File Type to Security Algorithmic Mappings

From the initial state of the election project, until the deactivation state, the EMS system
maintains an activity log within the EMS Database. This activity log contains every
action that any of the users have performed within the system and represents a detailed
audit log that can be analyzed and printed in the form of an audit report. The audit record
information cannot be modified or permanently deleted using the EMS client
applications. It can, however, be exported for archiving purposes as part of the record
retention policy. Keeping in mind that audit log information can contain a significant
amount of information, it is the responsibility of the administrative user to perform

City of Philadelphia
Bid #B1903107
Election System
Page 57 of 247
regular archiving of the log. During the voting phase of the election event, ImageCast
devices also keep an activity audit log which tracks events happening on the device itself.

cloth, a dust clearing brush, or vacuuming of key locations on hardware. Additionally,
Dominion will train the City employees to remove and clean all uptake rollers to
manufacturer specifications.

Dominion will conduct Preventative Maintenance on a biennial basis, after one calendar
year after delivery or election event, or per contract requirements. Preventative
maintenance consists of standard steps and checklists for each type of ImageCast Ballot
Marking Devices and accessible voting system component. Preventative maintenance for
Dominion’s Democracy Suite is designed to minimize all maintenance, and is primarily
focused on the mechanical components. Compliance with the requirements set out in the
product maintenance guides and warehousing specifications is mandatory. Dominion
will be responsible for repairing voting system components and overseeing preventative
maintenance during the warranty period.

We will coordinate all repair and maintenance actions with the City or Authorized User.
Dominion will track and retain documentation on maintenance and repair activities. The
City will be given paperwork stating completion of work performed and status of the
Voting System. Warranty and repair parts shall be new. At the conclusion of the
warranty period and at the discretion of City officials, responsibility for this function can
be transferred to Philadelphia staff (or a suggested third party), who have completed a
Dominion technician training course. Dominion can also be contracted to continue to
provide preventative maintenance support at our standard service rates. Dominion also
offers different, optional extended warranty agreements, which allow the customer to
select a plan which meets their specific needs.

2) A proposed service and maintenance schedule.

Below, we provide the general service and maintenance information and a sample
checklist for your review:

ImageCast X with BMD


The ImageCast X is a Ballot Marking Device, meaning it does not store any votes cast
data. Log data is viewed and/or downloaded to a removable USB thumb drive from the
ImageCast X’s administrative menu, accessed with a Technician Smart Card and a PIN.

Dominion typically works with its customers to develop appropriate processes and
procedures around equipment maintenance based on your existing operations to suit the
new system. The ImageCast X system relies on COTS equipment from leading global
manufacturers and as such, the equipment is robust and resilient, and requires little
maintenance between election events.

ImageCast X – Tablet Battery Maintenance


In order to obtain maximum battery life, periodic maintenance of the internal backup
battery is important. It is therefore recommended that the internal back-up battery is
charged for at least 12 hours every eight months when the unit is in power off
mode/storage. It is equally important to ensure that the internal battery is fully charged
before the unit is deployed on Election Day. The Battery Status is indicated using visual
indicators once the ICX is powered up.

3.10.2 Technical Support

Describe your support model, which should include the following:

1) Problem resolution procedures, including problem severity classifications,


response times and “fix” times for each level of severity.

During the normal course of implementing Democracy Suite, Dominion staff will work
closely with customers to establish clear and timely information flow. This
communication helps reduce the number of problems and support early identification of
problems that require resolution through the Problem Escalation Procedure (PEP). Key
to a successful PEP is ownership of a problem. The following table outlines the problem
escalation path for the Dominion Team:

City of Philadelphia

Election System
Page 71 of 247
The Dominion Project Manager will follow a well-defined and proven PEP process is
depicted at a high level in the diagram below, Problem Escalation Procedure, and further
details provided in the applicable sections.

Dominion has successfully applied to the proposed PEP to implementations in


and many other Dominion implementation projects. The proposed
process has the following key steps:

Problem Identification – Customer identifies a problem or Dominion proactively


identifies a problem.

Problem Analysis – The Dominion Project Manager will work with the individual that
identified the problem and Dominion staff to clearly characterize the problem, assess its
severity, and determine the initial mitigation strategy. The Dominion Project Manager
will describe, document, and log the problem in Dominion’s automated ticket tracking
system. Dominion’s Project Manager will notify appropriate Customer/Dominion staff
of the severity and risk of the problem.

Problem Mitigation Plan (PMP) – The Dominion Project Manager will lead a team to
identify the root cause, determine/document mitigation approach, and identify the
management point of contact for approval of the PMP.

system will also be used to retain/reference repair orders and all other documents
reflecting any work performed on any voting system component. Once a call/email is
received, a work ticket is created and the initiating party will be contacted by a member
of the service team.

Initial contact will be established after notification. At that time, additional


troubleshooting instructions may be provided to help the service team better respond to
the failure or defect. If the defect or failure cannot be addressed in this manner, a service
representative will make the appropriate arrangements for resolution.

During the course the project, Dominion’s Project Team works closely with the City of
Philadelphia to establish clear and timely information flow. This communication helps
reduce the number of problems, and supports early identification of issues that require
resolution through the Problem Escalation Procedure (PEP).

2) Escalation procedures (including on-site service) that will apply where


resolution is not immediately achieved.

The Dominion Project Manager will follow a well-defined and proven PEP process is
depicted at a high level in the diagram below, Problem Escalation Procedure, and further
details provided in the applicable sections.

Dominion has successfully applied to the proposed PEP to implementations in


and many other Dominion implementation projects. The proposed
process has the following key steps:

Problem Identification – Customer identifies a problem or Dominion proactively


identifies a problem.

Problem Analysis – The Dominion Project Manager will work with the individual that
identified the problem and Dominion staff to clearly characterize the problem, assess its
severity, and determine the initial mitigation strategy. The Dominion Project Manager
will describe, document, and log the problem in Dominion’s automated ticket tracking

City of Philadelphia

system. Dominion’s Project Manager will notify appropriate Customer/Dominion staff
of the severity and risk of the problem.

Problem Mitigation Plan (PMP) – The Dominion Project Manager will lead a team to
identify the root cause, determine/document mitigation approach, and identify the
management point of contact for approval of the PMP.

Mitigation Execution – The team will execute the approved PMP and track resolution.

Problem Escalation – The Dominion Project Manager will escalate a problem based on
exceeding the resolution target time or at their decision.

Problem Close-Out – The Dominion Project Manager will document the problem,
resolution and lessons learned. They will also close out the item on the problem and risk
logs.

Since problems do not always occur during normal business hours, key stakeholders will
be provided with emergency contact information that will allow our team to be reached
outside of business hours (e.g. evenings, weekends, holidays, etc.) and on an emergency
basis.

Dominion Voting Systems’ business is built on supporting customers to conduct elections


in an error-free, secure and on-time manner. The Dominion team designed our PEP to
ensure that we address problems before they have an impact on an election. Higher
levels of service are provided during critical periods. Escalation always takes place a
position with a wider and deeper pool of resources at his/her disposal, to assist in
resolution.

Agreed. Dominion has included the cost of training for the City of Philadelphia in the applicable

We accomplish this through tailored training using various training formats, implementing adult
learning principles, and proper course pacing. Training and curriculum particular to the
resources, staff and needs of the City will be developed as part of the implementation meetings,
and materials will be provided before implementation for both hardware and software functions.
Additionally, we understand he requirement that training should be conducted by employees of
the applicant; however, in an effort to satisfy all of the requirements of the City’s RFP package,
Dominion may hire a third party consultant, who qualifies as a disadvantages business, to assist
with certain aspects of the training plan.

i) Preserving records;
j) Printing, designing, and formatting election reports;
k) Troubleshooting common issues;
l) Safeguarding and preventing tampering and unauthorized access to all

m) Post-election care, maintenance, and storage

Agreed. At Dominion Voting Systems our training platforms focus on providing poll
workers and election administration staff with the necessary knowledge to implement a
voting system that will smoothly and efficiently process voters. We accomplish this
through training customization, utilizing various training formats, implementing adult
learning principles, and proper pacing within our courses.

Training customization begins with tailoring our courses to a specific jurisdiction’s


needs. Courses cover both hardware and software, and they detail all phases of the
election. One aspect of the customization is utilizing different formats when creating
training, including instructor led classes in person, instructor led classes online, and self-
paced online eLearning.

In all formats, we base our training on the main principles of adult learning. Adults learn
best when material is presented in a variety of ways. To this end, our trainers utilize
auditory, visual, and hands-on training techniques. Our classes follow the “Explain,
Demonstrate, Do” method. Students hear an explanation of their responsibilities, see it
demonstrated, and then have a chance to practice it themselves. For example, our online
eLearning presents case studies and step-by-step simulations to enable learners to
experience the hardware or software virtually without having to unpack a voting unit.

To maximize retention, training classes must be properly divided and paced. In our case,
poor retention means an unsuccessful election, which is unacceptable. Our training
materials are divided into small, manageable pieces that enable our instructors to cover
information without exhausting a student’s attention span. Each section of our training
lasts no longer than ninety minutes, and then a student’s knowledge is thoroughly
checked through hands on exercises and progress checks.

City of Philadelphia
Bid #B1903107
Election System
Page 81 of 247
Dominion Voting understands that training must support the local jurisdiction’s election
process. We work in conjunction with election staff to define custom training for each
jurisdiction, so it will fit into the normal election process.

We will also work with Philadelphia to create any custom training materials that all
parties deem necessary. Any source files or camera-ready images will be available to be
given to Philadelphia as needed.

Instructional Design
At Dominion Voting our instructional design follows a Nine Step Model. This model
starts with defining what the final student performance is and what the goal of the course
needs to be. Once that final performance is defined, we consider performance analysis
and identify “What is the least they need to learn?” next we would determine unit
identification and unit level exercises, perform a content analysis, define sequencing and
delivery methods, and finally validate the course.

This process ensures the course won’t flood students with information irrelevant to the
final student performance. It also helps with content retention because the information is
presented in small, manageable chunks with plenty of progress checks and exercises.

Delivery Methodology
At Dominion Voting we strive for the best customer service in the business and our
flexibility to deliver training in multiple formats gives our customers a choice of many
different delivery methods for training.

Instructor Led – Training conducted on-site with a certified election systems trainer.
These in person classes are structured to provide the students the best opportunity to learn
with a face to face trainer. All Dominion Voting Training courses are offered in this
delivery method.

Instructor Led Web Based – Instructor led WebEx classes are ideal for customers who
need training but onsite training is not possible. These classes are structured with online

City of Philadelphia
Bid #B1903107
Election System
Page 82 of 247
instructor led lectures and discussion along with offline homework and lab assignments.
Web Based blended classes are offered for any of Dominion Voting’s software training
courses.

Self-Paced e-learning – Dominion Voting offers a complete library of self-paced e-


learning courses which includes both hardware and software training. These courses are
designed to deliver training in a unique format while keeping the student engaged and
active.

Our online training courses provide step-by-step explanations of the needed information.
We use the best eLearning tools such as Captivate and Articulate to create interactive and
engaging training. At the end of a course, a student is required to pass an assessment to
receive a certificate of completion.

The Respondent shall describe methods available to track which users need training by
specific task, whether training has been completed, and when refresher training should be
scheduled.

4) For EPB solutions:

a) Programming
b) Set up and shut down
c) Syncing, exporting, and importing data

For the purposes of this Request For Proposal, Dominion is not proposing an electric poll
book.

5) ‘Train the trainer' training for designated City staff so that they can conduct
additional public trainings. Training should be conducted by employees of
the Applicant.

Our Train the Trainer course provides a comprehensive overview for your staff to train
Election Day poll workers. This course focuses on teaching trainers to become better at
delivering training, covering everything to be included in a poll worker training
class. Topics include:

• Training Techniques
• Learning Styles
• Presentation Skills

d) Applicant’s repair and maintenance policies and proposed service level
agreements

Dominion and its team use a


Customer Relations
Management system (CRM)
database to capture service calls
to ensure all issues are resolved
effectively. Once a call/email is
received, a work ticket is created
and the initiating party will be
contacted by a member of the
service team.

Initial contact will be established


after notification. At that time,
additional troubleshooting
instructions may be provided to
help the service team better
respond to the failure or defect.
If the defect or failure cannot be
addressed in this manner, a
service representative will make
the appropriate arrangements for
resolution. The diagram to the
right summarizes this process.

If a failed component is under


warranty, a Dominion technician
will schedule an onsite visit to
repair / rectify the defective or
failed component. Where a
failed or defective component is
not covered by warranty, a
request for an on-site visit to
assess and repair the failed / defective component may be made. Normal rates will
apply.

Dominion will provide ongoing support to City officials and collaborate with other
Element Project Managers in the timelines agreed upon by Dominion and the City of
Philadelphia in order to ensure proper project oversight and prompt problem
escalation.

e) Applicant’s internal quality assurance procedures and any internal or
external test data and reports available to the vendor concerning the
voting system and/or EPBS.

As part of our quality assurance initiatives, Dominion Voting tests our equipment to
the highest standards in the industry. Our quality assurance and testing plan is multi-
layered and designed to complement any testing on the part of the City. Key
attributes of the test plan are as follows:

1. EAC Certification – Dominion products are certified as EAC compliant. This is


the highest certification standard in the industry and is your assurance that all
products have undergone the highest level of testing. Testing reports are available
through the EAC

2. State Requirements Testing – Dominion Engineers work to configure the EAC


certified platform to meet the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania’s specific certification
requirements.

3. State Certification Testing – Dominion’s team works with the Commonwealth


of Pennsylvania to demonstrate compliance of the system with state requirements.

4. Acceptance Testing – Each component of the system is tested for functionality at


the customer site. Dominion will provide training and documentation to Fresno
officials to assist them in undertaking this task.

5. End-to-End Test – Dominion will work with the City to conduct end-to-end
testing. We recommend that this test is completed following EMS training on a
project reflecting Election Day requirements. In this test, an election project is
created, and a representative sample of tabulators are programmed. Test ballots with
known results are prepared and cast. Results are uploaded into the election
management system and reports are generated. The results are then compared to the
expected outcomes to verify the system is performing properly. This test is
performed on site at the customer warehouse.

6. Pre-Election Logic & Accuracy Testing – In advance of all elections, Dominion


Voting recommends that Logic & Accuracy Testing of each voting system is tested
with final Election Day ballots. This complete end-to-end test provides certainty that
the system will perform as planned on Election Day. This test is performed on site at
the customer warehouse.

7. Automated Test Deck Creation - The creation of automated, comprehensive test


decks is an optional service provided by Dominion to assist customers in conducting
Logic & Accuracy testing. Using the Election Day database a series of pre-marked
ballots are generated based on a computer algorithm designed to provide the highest
assurance of system accuracy. When scanned these decks create known outcomes
that can be compared with tabulated results. The elimination of error due to mistakes
in hand-marking provides a higher degree of confidence in test results.

f) Data recovery procedures

Dominion will provide Philadelphia with a detailed Data Recovery plan. Below we
provide a brief, high-level overview of some of Dominion’s data recovery
procedures.

Dominion maintains a parallel system for every information technology system. The
parallel system is kept on standby mode and deployed if needed. All database servers
also make scheduled copies of their data to the NAS storage device and can be
restored if needed. All equipment used in our systems is based on redundant internal
architectures – dual power supplies, RAID disks, etc.

The Dominion head office is in Denver, CO. Should this site be compromised, a
variety of disaster recovery plans are in place:

a. Software and IP are stored in multiple locations.


b. Technical specifications are stored in multiple sites.
c. Most service staff are based in the United States, but service personnel are also
across North America and Europe. Dominion offices are located in four time-
zones for the convenience of our customers.
d. Fully redundant data center environments one primary and the secondary in hot
standby mode, in the case of an issue with the primary data center environment
the secondary will assume the primary role.

All Dominion employees utilize the same standardized procedures and collaboration
techniques to ensure the most seamless transition in case of accident or other business
continuity threat.

g) A list of all programs that will be executed during the use of the
solution, as well as a list of all files storing program data. For each
program in the list, the intended function of the program must be

i) A list of all files that will contain information from the Philadelphia
SURE database

Dominion’s Operations and Technical teams will compile a list of all files that will
contain information from Philadelphia’s SURE database. The list will detail what
each file from the SURE database contains.

j) A file format specification for each file or program.

Dominion will provide detailed file format specifications for each file and program
connected to the Democracy Suite Election Management System and accompanying
ImageCast equipment.

k) Detailed specification of the audit log, including but not limited to:

i. A complete definition of the audit log format.


ii. For each audit log entry, a precise statement regarding the event
that causes said entry to be generated.

Dominion’s system maintains a complete and comprehensive audit of events


according to Philadelphia policy, State and Federal requirements.

From the initial state of the election project, until the deactivation state, the EMS
system maintains an activity log within the EMS database. This activity log contains
every action that any of the users have performed within the system and represents a
detailed audit log that can be analyzed and printed in the form of an audit report. The
audit record information cannot be modified or permanently deleted using the EMS
client applications. It can, however, be exported for archiving purposes as part of the
record retention policy. Keeping in mind that audit log information can contain
significant amount of information, it is the responsibility of the administrative user to
perform regular archiving of the log. During the voting phase of the election event,
ImageCast devices also keep an activity audit log which tracks events happening on
the device itself.

Available log reports include:

Election Database Audit Log: The auditing activity displays this auditing report on
the screen of the EMS client applications. The reports found in the Audit Log Report
Group are associated with the logon account usernames that have been created within
the Election Management System Election Event Designer and Election Management
System Results, Tally and Reporting (e.g. Admin, Tech advisor, and RTR Admin.)
That is to say, the produced reports will log each action that a specific user performed
at a certain point in time. These reports show details such as User Name, Report for
Time Period, and Action details. The report is generated in simple text format and
can be exported into PDF, HTML or MS Excel format. The created report is stored

on the EMS server and signed using the election project key to ensure its authenticity.
Reports are created with the assigned date, and multiple reports can be generated and
printed.

EMS System Logs: There are three types of EMS system logs, which are system
errors, warnings and information. Each EMS application records its own set of log
files. These logs account for activities that are not specific to a particular election
database. Some of this information is also logged in the Windows Event Viewer.

Windows Logs: In addition to the EMS system, the Windows Event Viewer logs
information relating to the operating system and computer hardware, including any
system errors (i.e. power failures, hardware failures, data errors, etc.).

Election results (including the scanned ballot images and log files) are stored on the
compact flash memory cards on each individual ImageCast tabulator. Each file type
(result files, ballot images and log files) may be imported into the Results, Tally and
Reporting application of EMS together or separately. This allows for the flexible
management of results after the election occurs. Since ballot images take a
significant amount of time to import, your jurisdiction may decide that they are
imported after the results have been completely tallied. Result and log files,
however, take only a few seconds to load. All ImageCast log files are visible through
the Results, Tally and Reporting application and are stored in the EMS database. In
EMS, a directory of audit files is accessed in the graphical user interface and can be
printed or stored in a separate location. Operators with Administration privileges can
access these files at any time.

Audit log records cannot be deleted nor modified. Users with proper authorization
levels can generated and view the audit report. Audit reports cannot be deleted.

l) A list of all user interfaces. For each user interface in the list a
description must be provided, as well as information on what user roles
are authorized to access said interface.

Dominion will provide the City of Philadelphia a comprehensive list of all user
interfaces that the Democracy Suite Election Management System and accompanying
ImageCast equipment. This list will provide information on what user roles are
authorized to access that interface.

Below Dominion has provided a very brief overview of the ImageCast X’s user
interface options with a concise description.

• Visual Mode: Voter navigates their ballot using one of the available accessibility
tools and the visual display.

• Audio Mode: Visual display can be disabled, and the voter uses headphones to
navigate an audio ballot using one of the available accessibility tools.

1) A comprehensive list of deliverables to be provided, in accordance with the


Scope of Work described in Section 2 of this RFP.
2) All assumptions relied upon to develop the work plan and estimate, and all
conditions for its fulfillment as proposed, including City responsibilities.

Dominion is pleased to present our comprehensive solution for election equipment and services
for consideration by the City of Philadelphia. Dominion is the election provider for more than
1,200 jurisdictions across 33 states. Dominion has demonstrated our ability to deliver successful,
secure and transparent elections through our products, experienced people and sense of
partnership. Dominion Voting is fully invested in your success.

Dominion is more than just a vendor or a service provider – we are a company that works with
you as a partner. Over the last decade, Dominion has been continuously learning and soliciting
feedback from our customer base to ensure that our technology meets not only the needs of our
customers, but also the constituents they serve. We know that it has become imperative for
elections technology vendors to provide systems that are more efficient, flexible, scalable,
sustainable, secure and transparent than ever before – and Dominion is leading the way.

Below we provide a high-level overview of our proposed solution beginning with our Democracy
Suite and related Core Technology of the system, followed by a description of optional modules,
UOCAVA and Mobile Ballot Printing, that increase efficiency and reduce the costs of election
administration.

Democracy Suite
At the heart of our complete voting system solution is Democracy Suite, a robust and tested
Election Management System that drives all voting channels out of a single comprehensive
database; mail-in ballots, in person voting, accessible voting, and Uniformed Overseas Citizens
Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA)/Remote Accessible Vote by Mail(RAVBM). All pre-election
and post-election tasks utilize the same database. From ballot layout to results reporting on
Election Night, Democracy Suite is a complete, end-to-end elections solution that provides a
single, powerful and versatile platform for election management.

Existing functionality and ongoing development of Democracy Suite centers around providing
free and fair elections while considering the needs of our customers for easy to use and intuitive
products, efficient processes, and accurate and transparent results for all ballots cast.

Democracy Suite is comprised of two modules: Election Event Designer and Results, Tally and
Reporting.

Election Event Designer

City of Philadelphia
Bid #B1903107
Election System
Page 95 of 247
The Election Event Designer (EED) has all the tools needed to build the election project. From
the importing of your election data, ballot layout, audio, languages, machine settings to creation
of election files for each voting unit, Election Event Designer sets the stage.

We understand that ballot programming is a complex task that requires a high degree of accuracy
and control. Dominion has developed tools to make this process more efficient, ensuring
accuracy and peace of mind for your election staff. For instance:

• Election definition data may be entered manually, or imported from the voter registration
systems using the Election Data Translator utility. The Election Data Translator utility
allows the import of the election definition from the City’s election files further
simplifying the election definition process for Philadelphia.
• Once election data is imported, the City can review the data, make any applicable
changes, set up the layout and design of the ballots, and then undergo a final overview of
the ballots. At this point, audio components of the election are completed to the
specifications and requirements of Philadelphia.
• Templates used for creating custom ballot layouts and options can be reused from
election to election, and imported into newly created election databases. Election
definition data as well as the templates used for creating elections allow jurisdictions to
create uniform, easy-to-read, and space efficient paper ballots.
• Election Event Designer uses the City’s geopolitical and election data to calculate the
appropriate ballot styles and generate full-sized press-ready ballots in industry-standard
PDF format. EMS lays out a variety of import ballot formats and can be used allow for
the easy import of translated ballot content in jurisdictions using multiple languages.
• The Election Event Designer allows the City to set up the tabulation, the tallying types
(for reporting purposes), and the various election processes required by Philadelphia (test
decks, logic and accuracy testing).
• Once Philadelphia has completed all the initial steps of election definition using the
Election Event Designer, the system will not allow a significant database change to take
place. A designated City election official would have to go back into the system to make
those corrections. This safeguarding mechanism ensures strength in our system and
provides a system of checks and balances to assure that all election set up processes are
transparent and completed correctly.

The Democracy Suite system supports ballot layouts consistent with Commonwealth and
Philadelphia guidelines and requirements. The ballot is 8.5” wide, and standard ballot lengths for
the ImageCast Central are 11” to 22” ballots. The number of voting positions depends on the
ballot style and the length of the ballot. The system can generate and process a 22” double-sided
portrait ballot that can accommodate 500 voting positions.

Results Tally and Reporting


Results Tally and Reporting (RTR) module allows for the upload of results files from in-person
and central tabulation equipment. The consolidated results are verified, tabulated and published.
RTR offers maximum flexibility to create predefined reports, in addition to a variety of standard
Election Day reports including election summary, Statement of Votes Cast, Cards Cast and RCV
round by round report. RTR also houses the algorithm for Ranked Choice Voting contests.

City of Philadelphia
Bid #B1903107
Election System
Page 96 of 247
Results files may be automatically uploaded to Results Tally and Reporting and consolidated
results are available for verification prior to publishing.

An additional efficiency built into the Democracy Suite RTR module is that reports can be
generated as ballot processing continues uninterrupted. Under legacy systems, pulling reports
causes a disruption to ballot processing. This efficiency enables the City to better respond to the
community requests for real time election data; results are instantaneous.

• Once data is uploaded, the City will store all log files, data, and images.
• All data is reviewed, and published, then reported. These checks and balances occur
prior to publication, thus reducing errors and increasing transparency.
• Reporting options are highly flexible. The City can choose to complete a normal,
standard based report, or on-the-fly election reports that are highly customizable, that can
meet any of the needs of the office and its constituents. Democracy Suite has the
flexibility to output data in many common file formats such as excel, pdf, html, CSV and
XML.

AuditMark
Every single ballot in the election is imaged and appended with Dominion’s patented AuditMark,
a record of how the system interpreted the voter’s selections. This ballot-level audit trail allows
election officials and other stakeholders to review not only the ballot images, but also the
tabulator’s interpretation of each ballot.

City of Philadelphia
Bid #B1903107
Election System
Page 97 of 247
Each image is labeled with the tabulator, batch, and
sequence number within the batch, which corresponds to
the physical ballot in the stack. The AuditMark is
appended directly to the image showing how the vote
was interpreted at scan time. This AuditMark will also
include any adjudications applied to the ballot for voter
intent. Even if ballots for a given batch are mixed after
scanning, these multiple records provide a way of
correlating the digital Cast Vote Record data to the
image scanned and finally to the physical paper ballot.
While the AuditMark allows ballot-level auditing, it is
never tied to the voter.

Dual Threshold
When a hand-marked ballot is scanned by an ImageCast
tabulator – at the precinct level or centrally – a complete
duplex image is created and then analyzed for tabulation
by evaluating the pixel count of a voter mark. The pixel
count of each mark is compared with two thresholds
(which are customer configurable, to determine what
constitutes a vote).

If a mark falls above the upper threshold, it is


determined to be a valid vote. If a mark falls below the
lower threshold, it will not be counted as a vote.
However, if a mark falls between the two thresholds
(known as the “ambiguous zone”), it will be deemed as
a marginal mark and the ballot will be flagged for
adjudication where a team will review a voter’s intent
and the outcome noted in the system.

ImageCast X
Today, voters and election officials are increasingly looking to leverage everyday technologies to
improve the voting process and experience. Dominion is listening to our customers, and has a
designed a touchscreen, in-person Ballot Marking Device that combines the flexibility, efficiency,
and simplicity of modern technology, with an underlying platform of security and performance –
Democracy Suite. The ImageCast X Ballot Marking Device can support different voting models,
including early voting.

In addition to its touchscreen functionality, the ImageCast X Ballot Marking Device was designed
as a voting solution for all. The fully ADA-compliant ImageCast X offers several options for
voters with accessibility needs to vote in a private and independent manner. It presents the ballot
in audio only, visual only, or both audio and visual modes, depending on personal preference.

The ImageCast X is compatible with a range of accessibility devices that voters can use to
navigate through the ballot and make their selections. The system is compatible with a hand-held
controller called the Audio Tactile Interface (ATI), sip and puff device, or paddle device.

Voters make their selections on the ImageCast X, which then prints a paper ballot. The printed
choice summary ballot contains a written summary of the voter’s choices, as well as a 2D barcode
that is read by Dominion’s ImageCast Central tabulator. No votes are stored on the ImageCast X
touchscreen unit. The ImageCast Central tabulators store and tabulate all votes.

The ImageCast X is comprised entirely of COTS (commercial-off-the-shelf) hardware. The


flexibility and ease of use of this device makes it the best option for the changing election
landscape.

ImageCast Central
Most central count solutions that exist in the market today are large, expensive, proprietary
solutions that are not scalable, efficient, or easy to use or maintain. Dominion ImageCast Central
is engineered for simplicity and efficiency.

The ImageCast Central can be used to tabulate the results from all voting channels (by mail
ballots, ballots marked using the ImageCast X Ballot Marking Device, and ImageCast Remote:
UOCAVA/RAVBM ballots. ImageCast Central is designed to simply run ballots until there are
none left. The system is extremely scalable; an additional ImageCast Central unit consists of a
computer, software, and a scanner. The ImageCast Central is designed to scale based on the
largest number of ballots a jurisdiction receives in one day. The sophisticated software evaluates
the ballot image. If there is an outstack condition with a ballot, the system sends the image to
Adjudication, where human eyes review any issue. The ImageCast Central is an efficient, robust
and scalable solution that will meet the needs of Philadelphia at a fraction of the cost of
proprietary scanners.

City of Philadelphia
Bid #B1903107
Election System
Page 102 of 247
ImageCast Adjudication
As ballots are being scanned on the ImageCast Central, the Adjudication software allows for the
electronic review of outstacked ballot images, in real time. Outstack conditions ranging from
overvotes, undervotes, blank ballots, blank major contests and marginal marks to certified write-
ins. The Adjudication module allows for the efficient
processing of ballots that require resolution of voter
intent on a ballot-by-ballot basis. Ballots with write-
ins that are tabulated on the ImageCast X Ballot
Marking Device, will also be sent through
Adjudication for resolution. This system eliminates
the need to purchase or print additional ballots, take
days to manually adjudicate and re-scan days after the
election is over. Simply scan the ballots and
adjudicate the ballots on the same day. Adjudication
also offers a robust, ballot-level audit trail. Each ballot
scanned by the system is appended with an AuditMark.

When a ballot is reviewed in the Adjudication module,


and a user makes an adjudication decision, the ballot
image is appended with a record of that decision:
which user took what action at what time. This allows
election officials to ensure that adjudication decisions made by authorized users can be further
scrutinized and reviewed, and reversed if necessary, with a clear audit trail of which decisions
were made concerning a particular ballot.

Dominion’s adjudication module provides increases in both efficiency and functionality that
competitors are unable to furnish. While the system focuses on voter intent issues that need to be
resolved in adjudication, Democracy Suite and the applicable equipment continuously tabulates
ballots. Being able to run and tabulate ballots nonstop allows the City to save time and create
efficiencies that other systems do not allow. Our COTS equipment and software allows
Dominion to add equipment as the City’s needs evolve, while always having a solution that can
outperform high-speed proprietary units proposed by our competitors.

OPTIONAL SOLUTIONS

ImageCast Remote: UOCAVA/RAVBM


Democracy Suite’s ImageCast Remote UOCAVA/Remote Accessible Vote by Mail (RAVBM)
offers a secure and efficient means for overseas and military voters as well as voters with
disabilities to receive, mark, print and return their ballot to their local elections office. ImageCast
Remote UOCAVA/RAVBM ensures the security and transparency of the voting process while
preserving the privacy of UOCAVA and Voters with Disabilities.

An accessible ballot is in a readable format and allows for a voter to utilize their individual
assistive technology. Fully integrated and supported by Democracy Suite, the ImageCast Remote
UOCAVA/RAVBM allows election officials to conduct a seamless election, without the need for
a separate database or election project. Ballots returned can be processed on the ImageCast
Central, eliminating the need to duplicate ballots or process UOCAVA/RAVBM ballots on a
separate system.

Mobile Ballot Printing


Easily print ballots whenever and wherever needed with Dominion’s Mobile Ballot Printing
module. Fully integrated with Democracy Suite, the Mobile Ballot Printing module allows
jurisdictions to provide “Vote Anywhere” locations in a cost-effective and flexible manner. The
ballot for Mobile Ballot Printing is generated out of Democracy Suite with all appropriate
watermarks and color. The system is hardware “agnostic,” giving you the flexibility to use your
existing print hardware or leverage other commercially available off-the-shelf (COTS) printers.

The Mobile Ballot Printing module has a user-friendly interface that presents clear information
about ballots available to print and features audit reports to track how many times each ballot
style has been printed. Dominion has several certified Oki Data printers to choose from that will
best meet the printing needs of Philadelphia. In today’s modern era systems, ballots are imaged
and have lower print specifications. Having the ability to print as many ballots as needed without
worry of additional cost, makes the Mobile Ballot Printing system a natural augmentation to the
Philadelphia elections office.

Risk-Limiting Audit Capability
Democracy Suite at its core produces all necessary data for the City to perform Risk Limiting
Audits. A Risk Limiting Audit presumes that the voting system is incorrect and customizes an
audit package based on the acceptable risk limits and determines the proper number of ballots for
review as an acceptable audit sampling.

Dominion is very proud to have assisted 58 of 64 Colorado counties that utilize Democracy Suite
in the first ever statewide Risk Limiting Audit. To fulfill each Colorado county’s obligation to
perform a Risk Limiting Audit, Dominion prepared an export of ballot images, cast vote records,
and all data necessary for the ballot manifest, which were integrated with a third party open
source module.

Project Management and Implementation Activities


Dominion provides end-to-end elections services that are customized for individual clients.
Above we described the hardware and software included in our proposed solution. Below we
provide an overview of the project management and implementation activities.

Project Initiation & Kick-Off Meeting


The designated Dominion Project Manager and the Dominion Technical Lead will meet with the
City to discuss and finalize the following activities:

1. Review project governance structure, project roles and responsibilities


2. Project Management Artifacts Review
a. Review and adjust the following with a view to finalize immediately following
contract signing:
i. Project plan activities, schedule and milestones
ii. Issue tracking & escalation plan
iii. Risk mitigation plan
iv. Communication plan
v. Conflict resolution plan
3. Training Plan finalization
a. Review and adjust training sessions and schedule
4. Review Architectural & Technical Specifications deliverables

Requirements Gathering, Gap Analysis & Application Configuration


A key phase in the initial stages of the project implementation will be a gap analysis performed
by the Dominion team, and subsequent configuration will be developed and implemented.

Through this thorough analysis, Dominion will identify if there are aspects of system
functionality which need to be customized in order to meet the City’s statutory requirements.
Dominion technology is used in dozens of states across the United States, each with its own set of

City of Philadelphia
Bid #B1903107
Election System
Page 105 of 247
particular and unique requirements. Below we describe the steps involved in customizing the
system to the City’s environment.

The Dominion Voting Democracy Suite Election Management System (EMS) is a highly
configurable election system that can be adapted to meet the needs of any jurisdiction. Dominion
will work closely with Philadelphia to ensure that the system is deployed in a manner that meets
all jurisdiction requirements. The following steps are typically required:

Create Election Data Import Bridge


In this series of steps, Dominion works with the IT professional responsible for the
creation and maintenance of the EIMS database to create a bridge that allows the direct
import of geopolitical data into the Democracy Suite EMS. This step dramatically
increases the speed and accuracy of the creation of the election database within the
Democracy Suite EMS. In this way, election divisions, contests, candidate names,
propositions and other essential data need not be input twice, reducing the likelihood of
user error.

Customization of Configurable Options


During this stage, the City will provide final input and approval on ballot layouts, reports
content, and the configuration of the options of the ImageCast voting terminals. This step
takes place at the same time as the data import bridge is created and results data export
file is created and provided to the IT system managers.

End-to-End Test
All Dominion systems are certified and tested to the highest standards. As a part of our
internal quality assurance process, all systems undergo a rigorous operational test prior to
release to the customer. This end-to-end test simulates real-election conditions and
utilizes Election Day configurations. An election database is created, ballots are produced
and cast on the appropriate voting systems, polls are closed, results are transmitted to the
Results Tally & Reporting application of the Election Management System, and City
reports are generated. Dominion understands that all systems must undergo a rigorous
operational test prior to production release.

Procurement and Delivery


Procurement will be conducted in a manner that allows the coordination of supplies and
consumables to be shipped directly to the City. During the procurement phase of the project, all
of the commercial off the shelf components used in our election system are purchased. Dominion
will deliver all required equipment to the City based on the timeline outlined in the project plan.

While it would be preferable for all parties to identify final quantities of all supplies and
consumables required for Election Day on the initial contract, provision in the project plan has
been made to allow incremental orders to be placed following change management processes.
The City always has the opportunity to work with the Dominion Project Manager to place
additional orders at any time.

Installation & Acceptance Testing

City of Philadelphia
Bid #B1903107
Election System
Page 106 of 247
The City is responsible for User Acceptance Testing, and Dominion will provide an onsite
presence to support acceptance testing performed by the City. Acceptance testing involves a
visual inspection of the voting platforms, successfully completing a series of internal diagnostics,
and successfully tabulating ballots from a sample test election. Dominion provides documentation
and training for client technicians, as well as warehouse set-up guidelines for inbound acceptance
testing.

Preparation for Acceptance Testing


Dominion will provide guidelines and checklists to the City for acceptance testing and

materials will be provided before implementation for both hardware and software functions. In
addition to formal training, our specialists will work to transfer the required knowledge and skills
to relevant City staff, with the objective of ensuring that City staff is empowered to manage all
aspects of the system’s availability and functionality. Dominion takes pride in our ability to
transfer to local officials the skills necessary to conduct even complex elections with autonomy.

Election Programming
The creation of the election database is a critical step in the election implementation. Given the
very limited time available between the certification of the final ballot and the distribution of
UOCAVA / Mail ballots, it is very important that timelines are appropriately managed. Dominion
employs an iterative approach to ballot and report creation, where successive rounds of proofs are
provided to election officials as more information becomes available. Using this approach, in
many cases ballots have already been approved by the time they are certified, maximizing the
time available for pre-election testing and logistics.

The following are the basic steps involved in election programming:

Final election data provided to programming team – Final election data is provided to the
programming team. This should be provided at the earliest possible date.
Election Programming Quality Assurance – On completion of election programming, a back-
up of the final data structure is transferred to the Dominion Team for verification and testing. The
purpose of this test is to ensure that no unintended errors have impacted the data structure.
Test decks generated – On completion of programming quality assurance, the test decks are
created for use in Logic and Accuracy testing.
Ballots and ballot audio generated and approved - On completion of programming quality
assurance, ballots (including audio and paper ballots) are generated. Ballot proofs and electronic
ballot image files are generated and provided to the City Officials. The City Officials carefully
review each ballot. When City officials are satisfied that the ballots are correct, they initial each
ballot, and when they are satisfied that all ballots are correct, they sign-off on their accuracy, and
the image files are provided to the printer.
Ballot printing and distribution – Ballot printing and distribution are the responsibility of the
printer and the City Officials. Dominion will provide a recommended ballot inspection process
that should be followed to ensure that all ballots produced are of sufficient quality.
Memory Media Programming – Memory media for the ImageCast X and ImageCast Central
devices is programmed.
Receive test ballots from printer – The receipt of test ballots is the milestone that triggers the
beginning of L&A testing.

Logic and Accuracy Testing


City officials and their staff will conduct logic and accuracy testing of voting equipment, using
processes, procedures, and support provided by Dominion. The Dominion project team will be
available throughout the L&A process available to assist on an as required basis. Training for
City officials on the L&A process will take place prior to Logic and Accuracy testing.

City of Philadelphia

Election Support
The Dominion project team will reach an agreement with the City on their specific roles during
ballot scanning and Election Night. Dominion’s on-site support resource will have the necessary
skills to assist the City to ensure the polling location opens in a timely fashion and that the
equipment functions properly. In addition, a key role for the on-site support resource is to assist
the City with tabulation and results reporting. Dominion’s active voting support strategy can be
customized to meet the City’s specific needs.

Post-Election Debrief Meeting


Within 30 days following election event, Dominion will coordinate a post-election debrief
meeting to discuss post-election events and activities with Philadelphia. The debrief meeting is an
opportunity to review lessons learned from both Dominion and the City, evaluate success factors
and areas for improvement for process enhancement in future election cycles. On completion of
these reviews, project documentation and the project plan will be revised to reflect learning from
the first election.

4) A description of how private networks for election night reporting will be


setup and managed.

The Results Tally and Reporting (RTR) application creates an export which is designed
specifically for Philadelphia reporting. When the authorized user creates the export out
of the RTR application, a Philadelphia-compliant file is created. From the RTR
workstation, the results file is typically copied onto an external memory device for upload
to the state-wide reporting system on a different computer via the Internet and the City’s
discretion.

Standard results reports are generated using Server Reporting Services. These reports
can be exported in multiple widely used data formats including .xls, .pdf,.xml, .html, .csv,
.doc, .tif, txt and ascii.

RTR exports results data in XML by default. In addition, the application can import
customized XSLT transformations, thus allowing election results to be presented in any
format such as Microsoft Excel Format (.xls) and Comma Separated Value (.csv). W3C
defines a language that transforms XML files into more readable formats, such as clear
text files, HTML, XHTML, other XML formats, SVGPDF, etc. Any number of XSLT
transformations can be defined. When an XSLT transformation is created, it is
automatically attached to all transfer points set within the system. This means that, in
addition to the XML results file, the system will create other output file formats defined
by the XSLT transformations.

5) A description of how software upgrades, customizations or configurations


will be implemented. Describe your software development and
implementation methodology, including version control, error correction,
pre-delivery testing and de-bugging procedures, and post-installation
testing.

Upgrades
Any software changes, upgrades, modifications, updates, patches, etc. are typically
included in upcoming full releases of the software. Customers will have ongoing
visibility as to which future version of Democracy Suite will include any Philadelphia-
specific changes. Once the version is federally certified, in conjunction with the State
certification, Dominion will devise an upgrade plan for customers.

Documentation is updated in tandem with software upgrades or updates, and customers


receive updated documentation when upgrades or updates take place. Dominion reserves
the right to update and reissue updated documentation outside of the context of an
upgrade or an update, in order to ensure that customers have the most recent version of
all materials.

City of Philadelphia

For any firmware update required, Dominion will provide the necessary firmware files to
Philadelphia and review the correct procedures outlined in the documentation and
training provided. The assigned Project Manager will ensure all proper communication
procedures and documentation is provided to the City and other Element Project
Managers.

Software Development Methodology


Within Dominion Voting, information security best practices are fully integrated within
the system from initial design, through development, ongoing testing, and deployment.
Our dedicated engineers practice a holistic approach to information security that is
broken down into two major functionalities:

• Risk identification and assessment


• Risk control

Risk identification and assessment


When defining the security specification of Democracy Suite system, three pre-requisite
steps within the risk identification and assessment are performed:

1. Asset Identification: Includes people, procedures, data and information, software and
hardware.
2. Information Classification: According to assets’ sensitivity and security attributes.
3. Risk Assessment: Includes threat identification and vulnerability assessment.

Dominion considers security to be commensurate with its risks. Information gathered


during the above steps drive the decision process for appropriate security mechanisms
and controls implementation.

The tangible and non-tangible assets, which exist within the Democracy Suite platform,
are identified as:

• Server side computing platforms (both software and hardware).


• Client side computing platforms (both software and hardware).
• Network infrastructure (optional, both software and hardware).
• Tabulation devices (both software and hardware).
• Pre-voting election data.
• Voting election data.
• Post-voting election data.

The qualitative risk assessment dictates all critical information assets have the highest
possible security impact on the overall election process and the loss of any of the critical
election information assets would cause the election system to fail. The probability of
critical election information asset loss depends not only on the architecture and design of
the system, but also on the motivation of potentially malicious users. Thus, it is expected
that a motive will always exist and therefore, the probability of loss mostly depends on
the Democracy Suite system internals.

Risk Control

City of Philadelphia
Bid #B1903107
Election System
Page 119 of 247
The quantitative risk assessment clearly identifies possible threats to the system, driving
decisions to minimize vulnerabilities through implementing a variety of countermeasures
such as deterrent, preventative, corrective and detective controls, such as:

• Deterrent controls reduce the likelihood of a deliberate attack.


• Preventative controls protect vulnerabilities and make an attack unsuccessful or
reduce its impact.
• Corrective controls reduce the effect of an attack.
• Detective controls discover attacks and trigger preventative or corrective controls.

NIST, EAC, and VVSG security requirements has led to the deployment of hardened
environment characteristics including:

• The Democracy Suite EMS platform is deployed as a private local system. No public
network connections are allowed or needed. The EMS platform can be deployed
even without local network access, executing all of its components from the single
physical hardware device.
• The Democracy Suite EMS platform implements multi-level access control
mechanisms based on roles and permissions. Only authenticated and authorized
personnel can access and use the system. Implementing proper security procedures
and policies within the election organization is outside of Dominion Voting Systems
control.
• The Democracy Suite EMS platform uses Self Encrypted Drives as data storage with
real time hardware based encryption.
• All data in rest or transport are digitally signed and encrypted using NIST approved
algorithms (SHA-256 and AES-256).
• All systems during process of installation follow strict hardening procedures based on
the latest vulnerability risks and include regular vulnerability tests with Nessus tool.
• Adjudication is deployed on the EMS client computers and communicates only with
EMS through the use of a closed network.
• Communication between the EMS platform and central level ImageCast Central
devices (ICC) through the use of a closed network.
• Communication between the EMS platform and precinct level ImageCast X Ballot
Marking Device (ICX-BMD) is performed only using the USB flash drives.
Democracy Suite ballot counters do not require or have network interfaces.
• Central devices are locked from a functional point of view and only administrative
personnel can unlock them using the iButton security key and administrator
password.
• ImageCast X devices are locked from a functional point of view and only
administrative personnel can unlock them using the smart card and administrator
PIN.

6) Any other project management or implementation strategies or techniques
that the Applicant intends to employ in carrying out the work.

Gap Analysis and Application Configuration


As alluded to in Section 3.13 - Statement of Work, a key phase in the initial stages of the
project implementation will be a gap analysis performed by the Dominion team, and
subsequent configuration will be developed and implemented. Through this thorough
analysis, Dominion will identify if there are aspects of system functionality which need to
be customized in order to meet the State’s statutory requirements. Dominion technology
is used in dozens of states across the United States, each with its own set of particular and
unique requirements. Below we describe the steps involved in customizing the system to
the City’s environment.

The Dominion Voting Democracy Suite Election Management System (EMS) is a highly
configurable election system that can be adapted to meet the needs of any jurisdiction.
Dominion will work closely with the State to ensure that the system is deployed in a
manner that meets all jurisdictional requirements. The following steps are typically
required:

Data Conversion and Migration to Democracy Suite EMS


Dominion has worked with many customers to transition from a legacy voting system to
the Democracy Suite platform, and is familiar with migrating data from many different
systems to the Democracy Suite EMS. Dominion works with a number of different Voter
Registration System vendors to ensure we can import data easily and efficiently.

Election definition data may be entered manually using the Election Event client
application, or imported from an Excel spreadsheet using the Election Data Translator
utility. Dominion will work with Delaware to ensure that the State’s data is formatted
correctly so that it can be subsequently imported into Democracy Suite using the Election
Data Translator utility. This platform allows for the definition of an entire election within
the spreadsheet, and rapid proofing of existing election definition data. Modifications can
easily be made within the spreadsheet for any items that are not within the State’s export
files.

In subsequent elections, election definition data may be exported or copied from prior
election databases to speed up the programming process.

Customization of Configurable Options


During this stage, the State will provide final input and approval on ballot layouts, reports
content, and the configuration of the options of the ImageCast voting terminals. This step
takes place at the same time as the data import bridge is created and results data export
file is created and provided to the IT system managers.

• Please submit either a) a revised milestone payment plan that clarifies
that successful completion of an actual election is a condition of final
acceptance by the City or (in the interest of time) b) a commitment to
negotiate a revised milestone payment plan that makes the completion
of a successful election a condition of final acceptance.

Dominion has submitted four separate attachments detailing the updated scenarios for
consideration, highlighting a variety of different payment options, including outright
purchase, finance and per unit rental options. In addition, we have also provided
upgrade options, some at no cost, as part of our revised pricing proposals for
consideration.

This submission modifies the pricing scenarios to incorporate additional discounts to


the overall purchase including discounts to the outright purchase totals as well as
ongoing annual licensing and warranty pricing through the term of the respective
agreements. Of note, Dominion has eliminated the percentage increases to the annual
licensing and warranty for the term of the agreement.

Further, as requested, Dominion will modify the sample SOW and associated
Schedule of Compensation based on the final equipment configuration, potential
upgrade options and type of finance structure selected by the City. For example, the
schedule of compensation would be different for an outright purchase as opposed to a
10-year financing/lease/rental option. Regardless of the payment mechanism chosen,
Dominion is committed to negotiate a revised milestone payment plan that makes the
certification of the election a condition of final acceptance.

The final Statement of Work (“SOW”) will require both parties to review in detail all
aspects of the project including the project plan and associated payment milestones.
Please see the sample SOW provided as part of this revised response, which can be
used as a template for finalizing a plan with the City of Philadelphia. The sample
SOW includes a model Schedule of Compensation that has been utilized in several
Dominion installations. Please note this is a sample only and Dominion is committed
to negotiate in good faith the final compensation terms based on the final acceptance
criteria above.

• Dominion provided a proposed statement of work beginning on page 95


of its response to the City’s RFP. While the SOW in Dominion’s
response provides some of the necessary information, a final SOW will
require more detail and a few changes. Below are a few examples of
changes, clarifications, or additional information that will have to be
made or added before the SOW is finalized after the awarding of the
Contract. This list is not meant to be exhaustive:

Dominion agrees to work with the City to finalize the SOW and has provided an
updated sample that has been utilized in similar types of installations. The Revised
Statement of Work is included in Appendix 1.
1) The City must be granted the ability to identify aspects of functionality that
need to be customized and certain customizations must be made at no
cost. For example:

a) In the final paragraph of page 105, Dominion says that it will identify
aspects of the system functionality that need to be customized in order
to meet the City’s statutory requirements. The proposal is silent as to
the cost of those customizations. Rather, the City, in additional to
Dominion, must be able to determine if the system does not meet the
City’s statutory requirements. Customizations made in order to meet
the City’s statutory requirements, or to comply with the requirements of
the RFP, should be made at no cost to the City.

The Dominion system complies with the State of Pennsylvania certification


requirements, State election laws, the City of Philadelphia regulations and the RFP
requirements (collectively the “Requirements”). As part of the software license,
Dominion will make software customizations, at no additional cost to the City,
necessary for compliance with any additional requirements that may be deemed
necessary to comply with statutory requirements. With the understanding that these
software customizations may be subject to State and Federal Certification.

b) The “Gap Analysis” section on page 121 should be amended to provide


Dominion and the City with the ability to identify aspects of functionality
that need to be customized to meet State statutory requirements. Those
customizations should also be at no cost to the City.

Agreed, please see answer to 1 (a) above.

A key phase in the initial stages of the project implementation will be a gap analysis
performed by the Dominion team in conjunction with their counterparts with the City
of Philadelphia, and subsequent configuration will be developed and implemented.
Through this thorough analysis, Dominion and the City of Philadelphia will identify
if there are aspects of system functionality which need to be customized in order to
meet the State’s statutory requirements. Dominion technology is used in dozens of
states across the United States, each with its own set of particular and unique
requirements, and our software is routinely customized based on customer feedback.

2) The SOW should be amended to give the City the ability to create
guidelines and testing criteria. There are a number of areas of the SOW that
say that Dominion will develop testing criteria and guidelines for its system
without giving the City input:

a) End-to-End Tests and Customization and Configuration Options tests


described on page 106 and 107 must be in addition to tests required by
the City. The City has a number of acceptance tests that are required
prior to acceptance of certain deliverables. In the “End-to-End” test
section of the SOW, language should be included to say that this test is
“in addition to the tests required by the City’s Provider Agreement.”
b) The SOW (page 107) also says that “Dominion will provide guidelines
and checklists to the City for acceptance testing.” The SOW should be
amended to say that the City may also develop its own guidelines and
checklists for acceptance testing.
c) “Logic and Accuracy Testing” described on page 108, should include
other reasonable tests provided by the City.

Dominion agrees to the modifications noted above and has provided an updated sample
SOW accordingly.

3) The SOW should make clear whether the system is sufficiently accessible
to individuals with disabilities. In addition to the accessibility requirements
and scoring criteria established in the RFP, Dominion should make clear
whether or not they have a plan and voting system that is compliant with all
relevant federal and state laws regarding individuals with disabilities,
including: The Americans with Disabilities Act and the Help America Vote
Act of 2002.

Agreed. The Dominion system is certified by the Election Assistance Commission and
the State of Pennsylvania and is compliant with all relevant federal and state laws
regarding individuals with disabilities, including: The Americans with Disabilities Act
and the Help America Vote Act of 2002. In addition, Dominion has held a number of
User Accessibility Demonstrations to solicit feedback regarding its Accessibility features
of our proposed product configuration. This feedback is continuously incorporated in our
product design. Dominion is willing to continue these user group sessions with
associated organizations within Philadelphia and surrounding jurisdictions as consistent
with our core business principles for ongoing product improvements related to
accessibility.

4) Dominion’s active voting support strategy should be customized with


sufficient detail before the final contract. In the “Election Support” section
on page 109, Dominion says that the active voting support strategy (the
strategy for providing on-site support with tabulation and results
reporting), needs to be developed before the final contract. Can you
provide more details on this section.

Agreed. The revised SOW includes updates to the Election Support Section with sample
material. As is customary with other large implementations and election support
activities, Dominion and the City will mutually agree on adjustments and customizations
of schedules and activities based on the City’s specific needs.

5) A Project Schedule must be developed before the final contract is signed.


That final project schedule on page 113, should more clearly establish the
milestones that Dominion intends to complete, with the payments for each
milestone proportional to the amount of work required and value to the City
received. The current version does not identify which tasks are considered
milestones and has no cost tied to each task. Please provide a new project
and payment schedule with the successful completion of the election as
the final payment.

It is critical for Dominion and the City to jointly work on finalizing a project schedule as
part of the SOW process. It would be difficult for either party to draft the project plan in
isolation. A model project plan is included with the sample SOW. Certification of the
election will be a milestone for final payment.

6) Dominion should re-word the SOW to use the active voice whenever
possible to remove ambiguity about which party is responsible for which
task. For example:

a) The first sentence in the Requirements Gathering, Gap Analysis &


Application Configuration section on page 105 of the response now
says “A key phase in the initial stages of the project implementation will
be a gap analysis performed by the Dominion team, and subsequent
configuration will be developed and implemented.” A better way to word
this sentence may be: “Dominion team will perform a gap analysis as a
key phase of the initial stages of project implementation, and will
develop and implement subsequent configuration”

Dominion has provided a Revised Statement of Work to satisfy the requirement


above.

7) Dominion should, as soon as reasonably possible, let the City know which
Standard Terms and Conditions provided in the RFP require further
discussion and modification. On page 139 of its response, Dominion
correctly points out that there are unique considerations in a voting system
contract that may require the City to modify some of its standard terms.
The final contract (called a “Provider Agreement”) will be negotiated after
the award of a contract. The Provider Agreement will be a customized
contract for this particular voting system. However, the Provider
Agreement will contain many, if not all, of the Standard Terms and
Conditions listed in the RFP. If Dominion believes some of those
provisions require substantive modifications, it should let the City know as
soon as reasonably possible to expedite the negotiation process.

Dominion would welcome the opportunity to negotiate some of the standard terms of the
Provider Agreement but does not believe that the contract requires “substantive
modifications,” with the exception of the Performance and Payment Bonds provision.

Below are certain items Dominion would like to review with the City.

7.4.2 Performance and Payment Bonds

7.5 Indemnification and the inclusion of a Limitation of Liability clause.

7.9 Acceptance – there are terms that need to take State certification into account, for
example 7.9.1 (3) should read “most current State of Pennsylvania certified
specifications for the Software,” instead of “most current published specifications
for the Software.”

Appendix A: ImageCast X BMD Limitations and
Throughputs
Our extensive experience conducting elections in other large jurisdictions indicates the ImageCast
X has similar throughput capabilities as paper voting or voting on a full-face style electronic
voting machines.

Dominion believes a voter using the ImageCast X can realistically make their ballot selections in
90 seconds or less based on the City of Philadelphia’s 2015 Primary and 2015 General election
sample ballots. These times may vary based on a number of factors, primarily familiarity with the
ImageCast equipment.

Appendix G: Future Options
The City of Philadelphia will have ongoing visibility as to which future versions and certification
iterations of Democracy Suite and the accompanying components of the voting solution including
any Philadelphia-specific upgrades or updates. The City is entitled to any software modifications
that are certified by the State of Pennsylvania so long as the software license agreement is in
effect.

Dominion is constantly working with Commercial-off-the-Shelf equipment providers, such as


Canon and Dell, to ensure visibility regarding end-of-life components and available replacements.
This is done in conjunction with managing ongoing state and federal certification campaigns, to
ensure that Democracy Suite remains fully operational and available to customers. Where
possible, Dominion strives to integrate any new product offerings and enhancements to the
currently certified system version to prevent having to replace certain infrastructure components.

Some of the items on our development roadmap includes an ImageCast X that displays ballots in
landscape mode and an ImageCast Precinct scanner/tabulator with a larger more user-friendly
user display. Dominion is happy to work with Philadelphia to determine what will best meet their
election needs moving into the future to develop an upgrade roadmap that ensures Philadelphia’s
elections are performed in the most efficient, accurate and user-friendly manner while setting an
example as the most state of the art system on the market today. These future product offerings
can be discussed as part of the overall solution presented to the City and timelines for completion
can be committed to during a best and final offer phase or contract negotiation phase.
