RFP-35-11-12 - Acquisition of a Mobile & Handheld License Plate Recogniton System

Summary of Specifications:
The City of Miami Beach, on behalf of its Parking Department (the City), is pursuing technology enhancements for its parking payment systems including, but not limited to, multi-space pay stations, municipal permit programs (including business and residential permits), and potentially pay by phone services. The City intends to migrate to a License Plate Recognition (LPR) enforcement system, and eventually have “paperless” parking payment options and solutions. The payment options shall be delivered through real time web based services provided by either the vendors’ payment platform or, in at least one case, the City’s payment platform. The City is seeking an LPR enforcement component, including functionality through real time web enabled mobile and handheld units which interface with the proprietary payment platforms described above. The above payment platform list is not intended to be an all encompassing list. It is the intent of the City to enter into a three (3) year agreement with the successful Proposer to provide a Mobile and Handheld LPR Parking Enforcement System, with an option for an additional two (2) year renewal option, at the sole discretion of the City Manager.
