Explanation
§ On March 25, 2019, City Council approved a contract with Aero Parker to provide a parking reservation system and supporting commercial management services which include marketing, digital optimization, customer support services, and product yield management.
§ 45 percent of all parking transactions are made via the online booking system, averaging around one million transactions annually.
§ Due to the overall success of the system and the significant investment into its deployment and integration with the Airport’s parking control system and website, the Airport is recommending a three-year and four-month contract extension to the existing term which currently expires on November 9, 2025, allowing the term of the contract to align with the needs of the business.
§ The total value of the contract amendment is estimated to be $2,415,543.

Contract goals were not established for this contract because the scope of work or goods required does not present viable subcontracting opportunities. KMP Associates, Ltd. will be responsible for 100% of the work or goods, and there are no opportunities to include subcontractors. This assessment was confirmed by CBI and the respective department after reviewing the project’s scope and potential for division into subcontracting opportunities.
