Cloud-Based Downtown Parking Management System

The City of Marietta is seeking a cloud-based, comprehensive downtown parking management system to detect vehicle occupancy and manage parking limits. The city needs to solve the problem of vehicle congestion and inefficient parking enforcement by tracking when vehicles exceed the posted two-hour limit. The system must scale across on-street spaces, surface lots, and structured deck levels while integrating with existing city systems like GIS, finance, and citation processing. The scope of work requires sensing technology, hybrid detection methods, and integration with navigation applications like Google Maps, Apple Maps, and Waze. The agency requests a web-based parking availability map for visitors and mobile enforcement applications that provide officers with real-time dwell-time dashboards. The project also includes role-based access control for multiple departments, API data export capabilities, optional text or app-based notifications, and dynamic digital signage at key intersections to display real-time space counts. Eligible bidders must be onshore organizations based in the United States. The agency allows the performance of the work to be completed offsite. Bidders must submit their proposals and responses digitally via email or online. The agency is looking for proposals to determine the budget for this project. Bidders must submit all questions regarding this opportunity no later than July 7, 2026.
