RFI - Parking Pay Stations

The Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) is seeking information from qualified vendors regarding parking pay stations/kiosks and associated services to support daily fee collections at facilities statewide. The Department currently operates approximately 160 pay stations and is exploring alternative products lines, maintenance services, and financing options to improve its parking infrastructure. Key points to consider: • The Department is looking for vendors that can supply, support, and maintain parking equipment suitable for their current and future needs. • Vendors should be able to provide equipment that meets minimum requirements such as accepting multiple forms of payment, being PCI/PTS and PCI/DSS certified, and having a 99% uptime between operating hours. • The Department is interested in creative financing options and wants vendors to provide information on available options, including outright purchase pricing, lease-to-own programs, and public agency discounts. • Vendors should be able to provide comprehensive financial reporting components, modular equipment for easy maintenance, and solar and hardwired connectivity options. • The proposed parking equipment must be reliable, user-friendly, and ADA compliant, with the ability to handle multiple fee structures and support multiple languages.
