摘要: |
Traditionally, state and local transportation agencies in Maricopa County procured signal system software individually. Early in the conceptual planning process for their own traffic signal system modernization, Maricopa County Department of Transportation (MCDOT) staff identified several benefits in procuring the software on a regional basis. In conjunction with the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT), MCDOT established a Regional Traffic Signal Procurement Group. After six months of meetings involving up to thirteen different agencies, the Regional Procurement Group developed a request for proposals to provide traffic signal system software to any agency in the state of Arizona. This paper provides other transportation agencies with a stimulus to engage in similar procurements. The paper includes a detailed overview of the development of the regional procurement request for proposals and scope requirements. In concluding, the paper highlights the benefits that individual agencies realized through this process. Most significantly, the cooperative procurement accelerated the deployment of essential signal systems in Maricopa County. |
