Description
The Athens-Clarke County Government is seeking a proposal for an Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) solution to be implemented on 32 vehicles that comprise the current bus fleet. The system will provide real-time GPS tracking and dispatch software, allowing operators to monitor the entire fleet, communicate with drivers, and manage service disruptions or detours. The project includes a one-year contract with the option to renew for four additional one-year terms. The contractor will be responsible for providing all personnel, equipment, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and services necessary for the project.
• The system must be compatible with the National Intelligent Transportation Standards architecture.
• The contractor must provide pricing separate from the proposal, reflective of a five-year contract with an all-inclusive cost implementation and maintenance plan.
• The contractor must comply with all applicable federal laws and regulations, including those related to environmental protection and accessibility for persons with disabilities.
• The contractor must provide a written safety program and maintain adequate insurance coverage, including workers' compensation, commercial general liability, and automobile liability.
