FARE COLLECTION APPLICATION - REJECTION

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

File Number 260623 is a Resolution to reject all proposals received in response to Request for Proposals No. EVN0001148, Fare Collection Application, for the Department of Transportation and Public Works. The item was introduced on 4/8/2026, deferred on 5/13/2026, and withdrawn on 6/10/2026. The administration requested withdrawal to instead return with a recommended vendor. The RFP was advertised on May 16, 2025, and nine proposals were received on August 29, 2025. The contract was intended to replace Contract No. L8481-0/27, valued at $31,671,329, expiring January 31, 2028. The anticipated contract term was six years with one four-year option to renew. Five proposers were advanced to oral presentations, though the RFP stated three. The County Attorney's Office determined the RFP language required only three. Cubic Transportation Systems, originally ranked fourth, jumped to first after oral presentations. The current vendor, Cubic, is not PCI compliant. The administration's goal was to replace the system with a best-in-class solution. The item was withdrawn, and the administration committed to returning with a recommended vendor and a report. The next IEIC meeting was scheduled for July 15, 2026.
