| | | | | | | | | Description:
The Department of Transportation Services is seeking a continuation of the contract with Trapeze Software Group, Inc. VEONow is Trapeze’s proprietary cloud-based global positioning system (GPS) and automatic vehicle location (AVL) platform which is an essential requirement that is used to provide Transportation Services with real-time location-based information on vehicles used to transport students and non-bus (white fleet) vehicles used by The School District of Philadelphia (District) staff members. Consistent with prior requests, we are seeking authorization for $473,000 for FY24 to support access to the platform, yearly maintenance costs, additional GPS devices, and Tablets for new vehicles. Trapeze is responsive and in compliance with its current contract.
This contract directly supports the Board of Education's Guardrail 1. The success of the contract is measured by the ability of Transportation Services to continue to have access to accurate and precise real-time data on the location of vehicles transporting students or used by District staff.
