New Brunswick, Canada, is seeking information from vendors regarding a modern Election Management System (EMS). The desired EMS should encompass various components necessary for conducting efficient and reliable elections.

Key functionalities expected of the system include maintaining electoral geography information for different election types with independent boundaries, and supporting boundary redistributions between elections. The EMS should manage civic and mailing address records in compliance with external data standards, and provide multiple methods for maintaining elector information, including direct data entry, imports from trusted sources, and qualified submissions from individual electors. Additionally, the system must be capable of managing contest information, tracking current elected representatives, and recording changes between elections.

Further capabilities of the EMS should include enabling comprehensive election logistics planning, managing polling station selection, leasing, and payment information, as well as facilitating the planning and production of ballot styles and ballot printing before and during elections. The system must also support exporting election data for use with program tabulation machines.
