Identification, Inventorying, and Assessment Parks Assets Service

The New York government authority is seeking a vendor to identify, inventory, and assess park assets across its parklands. The agency is trying to implement a citywide park needs assessment strategy to identify and target capital investments where the needs are greatest. To solve this problem, the agency requires a complete inventory of assets mapped on GIS, along with relevant asset data and regular inspections to identify the current state of repair and potential level of capital need. The scope of work covers the creation of data collection and analysis tools to support asset condition assessment, reporting, and prioritization. The agency is requesting the development of an asset hierarchy defining the relationship between assets, their systems, and components, as well as a standardized protocol for asset inspections. The project also requires the development of a tiered portfolio system to categorize assets and the identification of relevant data points to record per asset type, such as condition, accessibility, energy efficiency, and usership. The agency is looking for the identification of efficient technologies to assist in asset inventorying and tracking, including unique and novel uses of technology to collect initial data or to use as baselines for ease of future inspections. These technologies may include collecting and comparing LIDAR data at retaining walls or using unmanned drone flights to identify roof conditions. Eligible bidders must be onshore USA organizations only. The agency requires the performance of the work to be conducted offsite. The agency is looking for proposals to determine the budget, and the source document does not specify key dates for this opportunity.
