EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City's current agreement with Parking Concepts, Inc. d/b/a Transportation Concepts (Transportation Concepts) will expire on June 30, 2020.

On November 5, 2019 the City Council approved the BCT System RFP, the proposal evaluation criteria and the form of the City agreement, and authorized staff to issue the RFP on November 7, 2019. The City received three proposals on December 18, 2019, which were reviewed by the Transit Proposal Review Committee (Review Committee), and interviews were held with two competitive proposers on January 15, 2020.
Staff recommends approval of contract award to Transportation Concepts as the BCT system contract operator based on the results of the Review Committee's final rankings of the written proposals, interviews with key operating and corporate personnel, and the cost analysis of the proposed services.
