Cloud Based Connected Vehicle Equipment FL's Regional Advanced Mobility Elements (FRAME) project

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) District Two is conducting a single source procurement for connected vehicle equipment, including road-side units, on-board units, operating system, cloud-based communications system, and ancillary components, for its Regional Advanced Mobility Elements (FRAME) project. The required equipment will be used to provide Intersection Geometry Mapping, Signal Phasing and Timing, Emergency Vehicle Preemption, and Transit Signal Priority information to vehicles. The contract term is three years, with an estimated dollar amount of $2,000,000. FDOT has identified Temple Inc. as the sole provider of the required cloud-based connected vehicle technology, which was tested and validated at the Traffic Engineering Research Lab and a permitted test site. The justification for the single source acquisition is that Temple Inc.'s proprietary "Glance" product is the only solution available in a cloud-based environment that can meet FDOT's performance and compatibility requirements.

This procurement is not designated as a set-aside, and there are no restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. Temple Inc. is the incumbent vendor, as the FRAME project requires the integration of Temple Inc.'s proprietary technology. The procurement does not provide a specific budget range, but the estimated value of the contract is $2,000,000.
