Title: Parking Access and Revenue Control System (PARCS) and Parking Facilities Management Services at Daytona

1.2. Background

The Daytona Beach International Airport (“the Airport”) currently offers 1,131 public parking spaces

(818 in the Long-Term Lot and 313 in the Short-Term Lot) and a 12-space VIP lot reserved for Board members and other authorized parkers. The public parking spaces serve airline passengers, meeters/greeters/well-wishers, and other visitors to the terminal building.

The public facilities are served by six entry lanes and one shared exit plaza with four exit lanes offering both staffed and unstaffed lanes. This facility is currently operated by a third-party operator under a concession agreement. The current parking access and revenue control system was installed in 2015 and is unable to provide several features desired by the County. The Airport also provides a combined 187 employee spaces in the West and East Employee lots.

The County will establish an Agreement with the successful Proposer (the Contractor), for an initial 5-year base term plus one 5-year option to provide parking management and operations services for the existing public parking facilities, employee parking facilities, special events, and additional parking facilities that may open during the term of the Agreement. The Contractor will provide and manage the installation of a new parking access and revenue control system (PARCS). These services will be conducted under a management agreement whereby the County pays the Contractor a monthly management fee and reimburses the Contractor for selected labor and expenses.
