RFI for Intelligent Transport System Modernization for Real-Time Passenger Information

SEPTA requests information from qualified onshore U.S. organizations regarding technologies, integration approaches, delivery models, and realistic cost and schedule ranges to modernize Intelligent Transport System capabilities across its heavy rail subway system, specifically the L and B Lines. The required scope addresses vehicle tracking in underground segments lacking GPS, a computerized dispatching and service management system for high-frequency headway-based service, and a passenger information system that delivers customer-facing real-time predictions, disruption updates, and signage or audio announcement integration. Prospective respondents must email all documentation to Jason Calhoun at [email protected] no later than November 23, 2026, at 4:00 pm EST. Interested parties must submit all written questions to the same email address by November 16, 2026, at 4:00 pm EST.
