Sources Sought: Installation and Management of Fully Automated Parking Management Services at the Department of Labor’s Frances Perkins Building

1. Purpose

The U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) is issuing this Request for Information (RFI) in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 10, Market Research, to obtain input from industry regarding a potential automation project for three parking garages at the Francis Perkins Building (FPB) located at 200 Constitution Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20210. The information received will assist the Government in understanding industry capabilities, refining requirements, assessing risks, and developing an appropriate acquisition strategy consistent with applicable procurement laws and regulations.

This RFI is for planning and market research purposes only and does not constitute a solicitation, request for proposal, request for quote, or an obligation on the part of the Government to acquire any supplies or services.

2. Project Overview

The Department of Labor (DOL) is interested in working with qualified vendors to modernize and conduct parking management services at the Frances Perkins Building (FPB) located at 200 Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20210. The FPB has three (3) independent parking garages containing a total of 898 parking spaces. The anticipated scope may include, but is not limited to:

- The contractor shall provide services for parking management at the FPB. Services include parking management and oversight of the three garages in the FPB. They also includes, but are not limited to, access control, and assessments.

- The contractor shall provide a full service modernized parking management system. This shall include completely automating controlled entry and exit using license plate identification, PIV, contractor-provided cards, or similar technology.

- There is no expectation that contractor personnel will be on site, except to maintain and repair contractor-owned equipment as required. The contractor shall provide 24 hour/7 days a week customer service via voice, text, web, web messaging, e-mail, etc. to allow for around the clock customer service availability. The contractor shall also provide fully online web and mobile-enabled parking application and payment process accepting all major credit and debit cards, with capability to establish automatic payments.

Additionally, the contractor shall offer an android/apple app where parkers can make payments from their smart phones. The contactor shall also manage the parking application process including quality control of applicants’ input and then routing to the appropriate government approving officials for daily and monthly parking.

- The contractor shall provide an online dashboard where government officials can track garage usage in real time, view trend data, and generate reports.

- The contractor shall accept parking applications for individuals wanting to park at the FPB. The contractor shall include a parking registration form on their website/app to allow folks to provide information necessary to park at FPB. Required information will include the employee’s Service Computation Date (SCD), which is their federal service employment start date, as well as their supervisor (to include their supervisor’s e-mail).

Once the application is submitted to the contractor, it will be forwarded to the supervisor for their review/approval.

The Government anticipates that the project may be executed in phases to minimize operational disruption.

The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this requirement is 812930 – Parking Lots and Garages.
