MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS

I. INTRODUCTION

The City of McKinney, Texas (“City”) is seeking proposals from qualified vendors (“Respondents”) for airport parking management services. The purpose of this Request for Proposal (RFP) is to solicit proposals from experienced airport parking management providers and operators with demonstrated experience at similarly situated airports.

Respondents shall specify and provide all required equipment, software, management expertise, customer service support, and staffing necessary to manage and operate a comprehensive parking management program at McKinney National Airport (TKI) on a 24-hour-a-day, 7-days-per-week basis.

Respondents may offer a fully or minimally staffed solution, provided they offer a customer service plan and response times that meet all scope requirements.

The City anticipates a three (3) year contract with a two (2) year renewal option.

McKinney, Texas, on the leading edge of one of the largest metropolitan areas in the country, continues to evolve. After serving the general aviation community for more than 40 years, TKI is poised to bring commercial airline service to the region. McKinney broke ground on a new, flexible, cost-effective terminal at TKI in summer 2025, and expects to welcome the first commercial airline flight in late 2026.

The new facility will be a 46,000 square foot passenger terminal with four (4) gates, designed to expand to six (6).

TKI’s core catchment area covers the region of North Texas immediately surrounding TKI, encompassing the bulk of the Dallas-Fort Worth metropolitan area and adjacent counties north of Collin County. Passenger traffic during the first years of commercial airport operations is estimated at approximately 130,000 enplanements in Year 1 and up to 450,000 enplanements in Year 3.

The TKI public parking lot has 980 spaces with the ability to expand to 1,450 spaces. TKI is also contemplating future parking lots that may require additional entrance and exit controls. There is one entrance and one exit to the parking lot. See Appendix A - Terminal Diagram and Layout.

The successful Respondent shall adhere to the following scope of work.

II. SCOPE OF WORK

The purpose of this parking management program is to implement a complete, technology-forward public parking solution for TKI. The Selected Respondent will be responsible for recommending, providing, installing, commissioning, and operating all required parking management systems, infrastructure, and day-to-day operations needed to support a 24/7 parking environment.

During the term of this Agreement, the City anticipates a future supplemental parking lot may be developed for public parking or an employee parking lot that requires entrance and exit controls. Any additional lot may be handled through a separately competed procurement or, if awarded as part of this solicitation, through an optional scope item with separate proposed pricing. Respondents shall describe how their solution can be expanded to additional lots while maintaining a single, integrated platform for management, customer service, and reporting.

TKI is open to a range of operational models and encourages solutions that maximize automation, reduce the need for on-site staffing, and ensure high customer service performance. Potential operational elements may include:
