Transit Software Solution Statewide Contracts

NCDOT-IMD will hold three vendor demonstrations to show what software solutions are currently being offered under the statewide contract.  Please remember the following information:

• This statewide contract was put in place to help alleviate the administrative burden of having to do individual RFPs for software procurement, but it does not eliminate the ability for agencies to do their own procurement process.
  
• This contract does not obligate any agencies to use these vendors, and it does not exclude the usage of any other scheduling software.
• Agencies are allowed to and encouraged to continue with their existing contract and extend their contracts, as necessary.
• Vendors who were not selected, or that were found not compliant with the statewide contract can appeal the decision. The appeal process goes through the NCDOT-Procurement Team, IMD will not be able to provide updates on the status of any appeals.
