The Houston County Board of Commissioners is seeking a qualified firm to provide a complete turnkey solution for a fuel management system and fuel dispensing equipment upgrade at two County facilities. The selected firm will be responsible for furnishing, installing, configuring, testing, training, and providing ongoing support for the new system. The project includes the replacement of fuel management controllers, dispensers, and related equipment, as well as the implementation of a centralized software platform for managing fueling operations. Key features of the proposed system include secure vehicle and driver identification, odometer and hour-meter validation, transaction recording, and reporting capabilities. The selected firm will also be required to provide training for County administrators and operators.
• The project involves two fueling facilities: the Sheriff's Office Fueling Facility and the Public Works Fueling Facility.
• The existing fuel management equipment was installed or substantially upgraded in 2014 and has experienced reliability, maintenance, and serviceability concerns.
• The County seeks to implement a modern, reliable, and fully supportable system that improves fuel availability, transaction accuracy, user accountability, reporting capabilities, and long-term serviceability.
• The proposed system shall support key fobs, vehicle tags, manual entry, or other secure credential methods.
• The County prefers the use of standardized equipment, software, operating procedures, reporting functions, and support services at both fueling facilities when practical.
