RFP 252F-24 Addendum 1.pdf

This document is an Addendum No. 1 issued by the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) for Request for Proposal (RFP) 252F-24, specifically addressing amendments to key dates for the Bridge Management System procurement. The addendum extends the proposal submission deadline to March 28th, 2025, no later than 3:00 PM Eastern Time, while maintaining all other terms, conditions, and requirements of the original RFP unchanged. Bidders are instructed to acknowledge receipt of this addendum in their proposal submission.

The addendum is part of a broader procurement effort for a comprehensive Bridge Management System that will cover critical transportation infrastructure in Suffolk County, including 650 bridges, 50 track miles of tunnel, 1,500 culvert and drainage structures, 43,000 linear feet of earth retaining structures, and 2 dams. The proposed cloud-based software solution is expected to support bridge inspection data management, load rating calculations, regulatory compliance reporting, and integration with existing systems. The contract is anticipated to be a five-year term with potential ten one-year renewal options, with implementation expected to commence by June 30, 2025, and a six-month deployment timeline. The MBTA encourages participation from small, minority, women-owned, veteran-owned, and disadvantaged businesses, and the selection will be made on a best-value basis with technical factors weighted more heavily than price.
