Cashless Fee Collection System

The Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management California Region, specifically the Bishop Field Office, is seeking information on contractors capable of providing Remote Off-Grid Kiosk (ROK) installation and maintenance services to support cashless fee collection at recreation sites. This Request for Information (RFI, Solicitation Number DOILFBO260008) is issued for market research and acquisition strategy development purposes and does not constitute a commitment to issue a future contract. Contractors must be capable of delivering all labor, materials, equipment, and services necessary for delivery, installation, configuration of cloud-based management tools for remote monitoring and reporting, and ongoing maintenance and repair services. Interested parties should submit responses limited to 10 pages by March 4, 2026, to Mike Anson (manson@blm.gov; 279-977-3565) and include company information, GSA contract details, relevant experience, capabilities, teaming or subcontracting arrangements, and other information relevant to the Government's market research. The Government will not pay for costs associated with responding to this RFI, and non-response does not preclude participation in any future solicitation.

This opportunity has no set-aside designation and involves the installation and maintenance of six Remote Off-Grid Kiosks—five Complex ROK kiosks and one RV Dump ROK kiosk—at designated recreation sites operated by the Bishop Field Office. The project addresses significant operational inefficiencies, as the Bishop Field Office processes 2-10 times more cash than other California field offices, creating an urgent need for secure, cashless fee collection infrastructure. No specific award value or budget range is disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice, and no current contractors or incumbents are identified. The contract will require comprehensive maintenance and repair services during the contract term, though the specific timeline for contract performance is not detailed in the RFI. Potential contractors should demonstrate relevant experience with kiosk installation, cloud-based management systems, and remote site maintenance capabilities to be competitive in any subsequent solicitation.
