The solution must be turnkey, support real‑time vehicle tracking, passenger information, automated vehicle announcements, GTFS‑Realtime feeds, and provide a public‑facing mobile/web platform.

Budget estimate

$1,000,000 – $5,000,000

Based on comparable municipal ITS procurements, a full‑scale CAD/AVL system with hardware, cloud licensing, installation, training, and multi‑year support typically ranges from $1 million to $5 million for a midsize transit agency. The lower end assumes a basic turnkey solution with minimal custom development; the higher end reflects extensive integration, robust public‑facing platforms, and longer warranty/maintenance periods. Factors influencing the final price include the number of vehicles equipped, optional add‑on modules (e.g., automated announcements, advanced analytics), and the length of the licensing/hosting agreement.
