Description
The City of Minneapolis, in partnership with the City of Seattle, is issuing a Request for Proposals to acquire and deploy curb‑management technology across several technology categories. The solicitation covers fixed traffic‑monitoring sensors, fixed curb‑activity detection sensors, mobile data‑collection systems, dynamic curb‑control integration platforms, dynamic curb communication/display units, a data‑aggregation platform, and freight‑movement analytics. Proposals must include detailed technical specifications, unit‑price breakdowns, and a six‑month reference‑scenario cost model. Evaluation will weigh functional/technical specs (30 %), technical maturity (20 %), vendor qualifications (20 %), and cost (30 %). Multiple vendors may be awarded per category, and the contract term for Minneapolis is approximately two years (ending 31 Dec 2028) with an option to extend. The procurement is funded in part by a federal SMART Stage‑Two grant (total award $14.85 M).
