Description
The State of Maine is seeking a vendor to design, supply, install, and support a rugged, solar‑powered, off‑grid cashless payment kiosk for use in state parks and historic sites. The kiosk must be PCI‑DSS compliant, capable of handling multiple programmable fee structures, store transaction data securely offline, and synchronize data when connectivity returns. The contract is a single‑award IT service contract with an initial service period of roughly five years, renewable up to two additional years based on performance and funding. Eligibility requires the vendor to accept that all service fees will be deducted from collected revenue (the vendor will be the merchant of record) and to provide a letter of reference from its banking institution as proof of financial viability.
• Provide one solar‑powered and one hard‑wired kiosk configuration (both required).
• Must meet extreme weather durability and accessibility (ADA) requirements.
• Deliver secure revenue‑settlement reporting and integrate with the State’s Elavon processor.
• Submit two total‑price options (with/without power & internet) plus annual service‑fee breakdown; the “contract amount” field is the price with power & internet.
