Pre-Procurement

RECOMMENDATION:                                                                                                                       

Informational report for discussion                      

BACKGROUND:                                                                                                                                 

Utah’s Public Transit District Act requires all contracts valued at $200,000 or greater be approved by the UTA Board of Trustees.  This informational report allows Trustees to be informed and provide input on upcoming procurement projects. Following the bid solicitation and contract negotiation process, final contracts for these projects will come before the Board for approval.

DISCUSSION:                                                                                                                                      

Credit Card Terminal Replacement.  This is a procurement for a SaaS (Software as a Solution) POS (point of sale) and electronic invoicing solution to run up to six brick-and-mortar ticket sales locations. This contract will also include electronic invoicing with email payment links to collect fees for departments that provide professional services and contract sales. 

The current terminals were installed in 2015 and are beginning to have hardware and/or software issues.  A new solution will bring UTA up to current Payment Card Industry compliance standards.  Funding for this project will be through a combination of capital project funds and on-going operational bank fee budget that is budgeted in Finance. This contract will be for a term of 5 years, and the procurement will be conducted as an RFP, where technical criteria will be evaluated and scored in addition to price.  (Req. 11447, Troy Bingham)
