Commercial Vehicle Screening System RFI

This is a Request for Information (RFI) issued by the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) regarding a commercial vehicle electronic screening system for weigh stations. The purpose of the RFI is to gather information about industry standards, best practices, and emerging trends related to such systems, in order to better understand the topic and prepare for potential future procurement(s). IDOT is seeking information on how vehicle notification can be relayed, how the system can be incorporated into existing Weigh in Motion (WIM) sensors, and what safety screening systems are used within the proposed system. The RFI response is due by August 31, 2023 at 9:00 am Central, and IDOT is not seeking pricing information, customized solutions, or other details that could disqualify respondents from participating in future related procurements. Respondents are asked to provide general information about industry trends, innovations, products, services, and best practices, without tailoring the information specifically to IDOT's needs.

The state of Illinois reserves the right to make all submissions to this RFI public. There are no set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The RFI does not list any incumbent vendors or current contractors, and it does not provide any information about existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. Additionally, the RFI does not include any details about possible award values or budget ranges.
