| BACKGROUND: |
Bob Sikes Bridge Electronic Toll Collection System Maintenance Contract:
Meeting in regular session on November 17, 2016, the Board issued a formal direction to staff to postpone the All-Electronic Tolling (no cash) conversion at the Bob Sikes Bridge Toll Facility. Due to discussion, both by the Board of County Commissioners and by the public since that direction, staff is requesting that the aforementioned maintenance contract allocation be approved.
At the regularly-scheduled meeting on July 7, 2015, the Board approved Contract PD 14-15.030, Bob Sikes Bridge (BSB) Toll System Upgrade Project to Transcore, LP, to install the State of Florida Sun Pass electronic tolling system at the BSB Toll Plaza. In addition, the Board approved five years Time and Materials Maintenance, with the option to renew for an additional five years. Funding for the Maintenance Contract is subject to appropriations by the Board of County Commissioners. On an annual basis, the County may opt to convert to an all-inclusive maintenance at the rates provided.
The Bob Sikes Bridge Toll Facility System Upgrades Project consisted of the installation of all new hardware and software for the toll collection function. The new system consists of 4 lanes that include a single dedicated annual pass lane, and 3 mixed-use lanes. The dedicated annual pass lane allows for free movement of vehicles with an active Escambia County annual pass, and/or an active Sun Pass account. The 3 mixed-use lanes are open to pass holders and/or offer the $1 cash transaction option.
Bob Sikes Bridge Toll Plaza Staffing:
In order to align the staffing contract with the original Agreement, Staff is requesting a change in the dates of the extensions to the existing contracts.
The Board awarded Contract PD 14-15.048, for Toll Collection Personnel Services at Bob Sikes Bridge on June 2, 2015. The Agreement relating to Toll Collection Personnel Service for the Bob Sikes Toll Bridge (PD 14-15-048), between Escambia County and JJW Services, Inc., d/b/a Accustaff, was effective July 1, 2015, for a term of 1 year, with options for renewal up to 4 additional 12 month periods, subject to the terms of the Agreement. This recommendation will modify the December 8, 2016 Board action from a 16 month extension to a 12 month extension, and will extend the contract for an additional year effective July 1, 2017. The estimated annual amount is based on "all-in rates" per hour, for 1 Manager, 4 Supervisors, and 25 Toll Collectors, per the original contract. |
