The City of Vancouver is directly awarding a three‑year license upgrade for Synchro 12 to Cubic ITS Inc. to replace the expiring Synchro 11 license. The upgrade is critical because the city’s historic traffic models are stored in proprietary Synchro formats; switching to a different vendor would require extensive manual reconstruction and retraining. The procurement is a sole‑source “Notice of Intent to Contract” (NOITC) valued at approximately US $24,592, with a lump‑sum payment structure. The contract window opened on 28 July 2026 and closes on 11 August 2026, and all questions must be submitted before the closing date.
• Scope: Provide Synchro 12 software license (traffic‑impact analysis, signal coordination, capacity analysis).
• Term: 3 years, direct award to the sole developer (Cubic ITS Inc.).
• Value: Approximately US $24,592, paid as a lump‑sum.
