DESCRIPTION


A government authority in Virginia seeks a vendor to provide, deliver, install, and maintain an intelligent transportation system, including a computer-aided dispatch (CAD) or automatic vehicle locator (AVL) solution. The selected contractor will provide a fully hosted, cloud-based, web-accessible system that operates through standard web browsers, securely stores data throughout the contract term, supports data sharing with other systems, and provides reports and exports compatible with Microsoft Office programs.

The system must support onboard data storage for at least three days in the event of connectivity disruptions and notify users when data is not received before information is lost. The vendor must identify the source, definition, and calculation methodology for each reported measure. Requirements also include automated vehicle announcements with separate interior and exterior volume controls, General Transit Feed Specification real-time updates at intervals no longer than 60 seconds, and integration of GPS data from automatic passenger counting or CAD/AVL systems.

The solution must provide a publicly accessible, mobile-friendly platform for real-time passenger information through a responsive website, applications compatible with current Apple iOS and Android operating systems, or both. Passenger information must be refreshed at intervals no longer than 60 seconds, distinguish scheduled information from real-time estimates, and notify passengers when real-time information is temporarily unavailable. The contract period is one year.
