About this file

This is a Request for Information (RFI) Questionnaire from a Florida county government seeking to determine the availability of Hayden AI BCT (Bus and Curb Tracking) terminals, park-and-ride monitoring, and bus stop monitoring technology from multiple providers or alternative solutions that could meet the county's operational needs. The RFI is issued as a Notice of Intent to Designate Sole Source/Sole Brand, indicating the county is exploring whether Hayden AI represents the only viable solution or if competitive alternatives exist in the market. This questionnaire serves as an information-gathering tool rather than a formal solicitation for pricing or a commitment to purchase, and respondents are asked to provide detailed information about product capabilities, service delivery methods, implementation timelines, and system specifications relevant to the pilot test project scope.

The RFI questionnaire does not establish pricing terms, set-asides, or binding financial commitments at this stage. The primary objective is to conduct market research to support the county's procurement strategy and determine whether to proceed with a sole-source designation for Hayden AI or to issue a competitive solicitation. The responses will inform the county's decision-making process regarding the feasibility, availability, and potential alternatives for implementing bus and curb tracking technology across multiple transit locations, ultimately guiding the formal procurement approach and contract award timeline.
