Explanation
§ The Charlotte Department of Transportation (CDOT) and Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT) currently use separate parking citation Management Software systems to issue and manage parking citations and permitting.
§ This contract would replace the separate contracts with a single contract that would serve both departments.
§ This contract will offer technology efficiencies not currently provided:
- Provides a module that tracks when meters are bagged at no additional cost,
- Allows citizens to pay tickets from one screen in one transaction, and
- Creates efficiencies by bringing CLT into the parking permit issuance section of the system.
§ CLT will use the contract for parking citations management and collection services.
§ On November 20, 2017, the City issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) for parking citation Management System and Related Services. In response to the RFP, the City received six proposals from interested service providers.
§ Passport Labs, Inc. best meets the City’s needs in terms of qualifications, experience, cost, and responsiveness to RFP requirements.
§ The contract gives the City the option to renew for two additional, one-year terms with no price increase.
§ Estimated contract expenditures are $207,000 annually.
§ The system will be operational in the first quarter of Fiscal Year 2019.
