Augmented Reality Portal and Smartphone Application Solution

The agency is seeking a vendor to develop, test, and roll out an Augmented Reality portal and smartphone application solution. This solution will function as a county-wide augmented reality field guide to the county's Blueway trail, allowing users to see trail routes, distance markers, trail amenities, and other wayfinding and historic site information through their phones. The mobile application must also work in tandem with the county's hike and bike master plan by displaying information on how to access these waterways via the pedestrian and bicycle network. The project scope requires the vendor to host a public information meeting, create a project website on the county's website, or post on social media to notify the public and solicit feedback. The vendor must develop an intuitive, user-friendly interactive graphic user interface, establish physical and practical parameters for application functionality, and create an anticipated catalog of digital content. Additionally, the vendor must deploy a beta or pilot version at an appropriate location, perform a second test using multiple devices and software suites in various locations, and develop a final version suitable for public launch along with a proposed deployment schedule. Only onshore organizations based in the United States are eligible to bid on this opportunity. The performance of the work will take place offsite, and bidders can submit their responses digitally via email or online. The agency is looking for proposals to determine the budget, and the resulting contract period will be for two years. Bidders must submit all questions regarding this opportunity no later than June 5, 2026.
