Request for Proposals Aircraft Flight and Track Operations Management System

The Department has had various Aircraft Flight Track and Operations Management Systems (FLIGHT TRACK SYSTEM) to monitor flight tracks since the late 1990s. The flight tracking system currently uses System Wide Information Management (SWIM) data from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and provides information on the location of aircraft in flight, time of flight, aircraft type, airline (where applicable), and altitude. This system has a web-based public access component which allows citizens to view aircraft flight operations in the Sacramento region. The Department is soliciting proposals from qualified firms to provide FLIGHT TRACK SYSTEM services that meet the required components and capabilities set forth in this Request for Proposals (RFP). The Department intends to award a single Agreement under the RFP. The selected firm (Contractor) awarded a contract under this RFP will be expected to enter into a contract with the County to provide FLIGHT TRACK SYSTEM services with a maximum total payment not to exceed $2,000,000 for a term described in Section III of this RFP. The Proposal submitted by the selected Contractor will be made a part of the Agreement. Any such agreement will be subject to provisions of Executive Order 11246 (Affirmative Action to Ensure Equal Employment Opportunity) and provisions of Department of Transportation Regulations 49 CFR Part 23 (Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Participation), among other things. The County reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to choose or reject any or all proposals based on evaluation criteria set forth in this RFP or for any other reason deemed appropriate. All costs associated with submitting a proposal shall be borne solely by the proposing Firms and will not be reimbursed by the County.
