Description
The Town of Chesapeake Beach is seeking a single vendor to design, supply, install, and operate a turnkey automated speed‑monitoring system at three existing camera locations (and potential future sites). The contract runs for three years with two optional one‑year extensions. The vendor must provide state‑of‑the‑art cameras, wireless networking, image‑processing software, citation processing, multilingual public portals, 24/7 monitoring, routine maintenance, and full data security. All permits, signage, calibration, and coordination with the Calvert County Sheriff’s Office are required. The solution must achieve at least a 90 % monthly prosecutable issuance rate and limit erroneous citations to under 5 % annually, with liquidated‑damage penalties for non‑compliance. The Town expects the vendor to absorb any revenue shortfall to maintain cost neutrality.
• Provide three high‑resolution speed cameras with pan‑tilt‑zoom, storage, and backup.
• Install wireless, non‑invasive infrastructure and required signage.
• Deliver a secure, web‑enabled citation processing platform (including multilingual support).
• Perform initial calibration and ongoing accuracy verification with law‑enforcement partners.
• Offer 24/7 system monitoring, maintenance, and a monthly performance report.
• Ensure data protection, ownership, and compliance with Maryland law.
• Meet a 3‑year contract term (option for two 1‑year extensions).
