Explanation
§ The Airport has a content management system which includes a passenger-facing website and mobile application.
§ M2Mobi is currently a subcontractor that developed the website and mobile application and has a proprietary all-in-one “Digital Airport Platform” which allows for content management across the website and mobile application.
§ For ongoing implementation and changes in scope due to Federal ADA requirements, it is beneficial to contract directly with M2Mobi for the Airport website and mobile application.
§ Waiver of a competitive solicitation process for services may be granted on a limited basis when deemed appropriate and in the city’s best interest. A waiver has been approved for these services based on continuity of service and limited vendors with required qualifications.
§ Annual expenditures are estimated to be $703,000.
