Automated Parking Payment Technology Platform - BDL

The Connecticut Airport Authority (CAA) is issuing a Request for Interest (RFI) seeking qualified vendors to design, install, and implement an automated parking payment technology platform at Bradley International Airport (BDL) to enhance the overall parking experience for airport users. Vendors must be registered with the CAA's procurement portal at https://ctairports.procureware.com to access complete RFI documentation and submit proposals. The solicitation period runs from February 26, 2026, through April 1, 2026, with all proposals due no later than 11:00 a.m. EST on April 1, 2026, submitted via the procurement portal. Questions regarding the RFI must be submitted by 11:00 a.m. EST on March 18, 2026, and should be directed exclusively to the CAA's Purchasing Agent via email at procurement@ctairports.org; the CAA reserves the right to disqualify any proposer who contacts other CAA employees or board officials. By submitting proposals, firms must certify that they have reviewed the complete RFI, fully understand the scope of work, and accept all terms and conditions for service delivery. Payment terms are established as Net 45 Days with Free On Board Destination delivery, though the RFI documentation does not specify detailed pricing terms, contract award dates, contract term length, or renewal options.

The CAA's solicitation documentation does not identify any set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, specific restrictions on organizational types eligible to respond, or an incumbent vendor currently providing parking payment services at BDL. No estimated total contract value has been specified in the available solicitation materials, and funding sources and amounts have not been identified in the procurement documents. The RFI phase does not include designated site visits, bidders' meetings, or vendor question-and-answer sessions according to the available documentation. Interested vendors should direct all inquiries to Kevin Lynch at the Connecticut Airport Authority in Windsor Locks, Connecticut, via procurement@ctairports.org to obtain additional information regarding this opportunity and to clarify any aspects of the automated parking payment technology platform requirements.
