About this opportunity
Broward County has issued a Request for Information (RFI) regarding the Rhythm Engineering InSync Adaptive Traffic Signal Control System (ATCS), seeking to determine if alternative providers or comparable systems exist for their current traffic signal infrastructure. The RFI specifically targets the procurement of ATCS equipment, certified replacement parts, and components for ten existing intersections within the county. Rhythm Engineering LLC is currently identified as the sole authorized seller and service supplier for this system in Florida, with the county asserting that their existing equipment cannot be legally interchanged with other manufacturers' systems. The RFI is open from September 10, 2025, until September 18, 2025, during which potential vendors are invited to provide documentation demonstrating their capability to meet or exceed the county's requirements. Prospective respondents must submit their information through the electronic bidding system, uploading supporting documentation to help the county evaluate potential alternatives or comparable solutions.
The RFI does not appear to have specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises or restricted participation criteria. The current infrastructure consists of Rhythm Engineering InSync ATCS equipment installed at ten intersections within Broward County, with the county seeking to validate the sole-source designation. No specific budget range or award value is explicitly stated in the documentation. The procurement appears focused on technical compatibility and system continuity, with Rhythm Engineering currently positioned as the incumbent vendor. The county's primary objective is to confirm whether alternative providers can offer a comparable system that meets their specific technological and operational requirements for adaptive traffic signal control.
