FARE COLLECTION APPLICATION - REJECTION

Intergovernmental and Economic Impact Committee · 2026-06-10 · resolution

This legislative matter, File Number 260623, concerns the rejection of all proposals for a Fare Collection Application for the Department of Transportation and Public Works. Initially recommended for rejection, the administration requested to withdraw this recommendation to instead return with a recommended vendor. The process involved discussions about the RFP's ambiguity regarding the number of proposers for oral presentations (stated as three, but five were advanced due to ties and a perceived minuscule score differential), the evaluation of optional items, and PCI compliance issues with the current vendor. The item was ultimately withdrawn from the Intergovernmental and Economic Impact Committee agenda on June 10, 2026, with the administration intending to present a revised recommendation and report at a future meeting. A prior deferral on May 13, 2026, also aimed to allow the administration time to evaluate upgrading the current system.
