CCPS RFP 25-05: Transportation Routing Software

The state of Maryland is seeking proposals from qualified companies to provision, implement, and support Transportation Routing Software for Carroll County Public Schools (CCPS). The selected vendor will be required to provide expert technical support and staff training for the application. The key objectives of this procurement include improving the efficiency and effectiveness of the district's transportation routing operations. Qualified vendors must demonstrate experience in providing similar software solutions and technical support services to K-12 school districts. Evaluation criteria will likely prioritize the vendor's technical capabilities, implementation plan, and capacity to meet the district's specific requirements. Proposals are due by December 12, 2024, with a contract start date anticipated in early 2025.

This contracting opportunity does not appear to have any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. There is no mention of an incumbent vendor or existing infrastructure that requires integration. While the specific award value or budget range is not provided, it can be reasonably assumed that CCPS has allocated funding to support this initiative, given the importance of reliable student transportation services to school district operations.
