HomeMy WebLinkAbout06 PARKING PERMIT MANAGEMENT AND CITATION PROCESSING SERVICESMEETING DATE: FEBRUARY 7, 2017 TO: JEFFREY C. PARKER, CITY MANAGER FROM: CHARLES F. CELANO, JR., CHIEF OF POLICE SUBJECT: PARKING PERMIT MANAGEMENT AND CITATION PROCESSING SERVICES SUMMARY The Tustin Police Department is committed to a partnership with our business and residential community to provide the highest level of service based on trust and transparency. The Tustin Police Department solicited proposals from qualified vendors to provide a parking management system that encompasses the City's preferential permit parking and citation management program and integrates with the City's current enforcement system. The goal of an integrated parking management system is to provide a seamless, efficient, customer -friendly and cost-effective operation. In terms of citation processing services, the vendor will process parking citations issued within the City, which will include citation tracking, payment acceptance, appeals processing, and collections. The use of a qualified vendor will continue to strengthen our relationship with the community through increased trust and confidence. The Police Department has utilized the current vendor for approximately 31 years. During this time, technology has advanced and there are handheld computerized citation issuing equipment, printers, and customized citation forms used for enforcement. This technology includes real-time software that allows the customer to pay for a citation shortly after its issuance and a color camera for evidential photographs. This will serve as another layer of efficiency and provide unparalleled, customer -friendly service by providing a more detailed and accurate account of the events. In addition to the citation processing services, the City's preferential permit parking, which is currently being managed by the Police Department, has been growing since its inception. An updated and web -based on-line permitting system would improve customer service, convenience, and efficiency. The system, managed by the vendor and overseen by the Police Department, would allow for on-line permit applications, renewals, and guest passes to be applied for and fulfilled immediately. Parking Permit Management and Citation Processing Services February 7, 2017 Page 2 of 7 Staff has conducted extensive research into options for parking permit management and citation processing services with the goal of finding an integrated option. Through the Request for Proposal (RFP) process and research into seven (7) different vendors, the decision was narrowed down to three (3) vendors offering solutions for both parking permit management and citation their hardware and software, it citation processing services from Department. RECOMMENDATION processing services. After vendor demonstrations of was determined the parking permit management and Turbo Data Systems was the best option for the Police It is recommended the City Council: • Award a contract for parking permit management and citation processing services to Turbo Data Systems. • Appropriate $29,946.00 per year from the Police Department budget, Account Number 100-50-32-6040. • Authorize the Chief of Police to enter into an annual contract with Turbo Data Systems on behalf of the City of Tustin. FISCAL IMPACT The future cost of Turbo Data System's proposed parking permit management and citation processing services including the handheld issuance devices would cost the City approximately $2,496 a month, with an annual cost of $29,946.00. Of the total monthly cost, $233.00 (9.3%) is specific to the parking permit management portion of the contract. If the City was interested in recouping some of these costs, a charge of $1.75 per permit could be assessed. Considering that the City issues approximately 400 permits annually, a savings of $700.00 would be realized. In speaking with other agencies during the research for this proposal, about half of the departments charge for parking permit fees. CORRELATION TO THE STRATEGIC PLAN Goal B: Public Safety and Protection of Assets — Ensure Tustin is an attractive, safe and well maintained community in which people feel pride. BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION Staff established a committee to research options and alternatives to our current citation processing services, the use of an outside vendor managing the residential parking Parking Permit Management and Citation Processing Services February 7, 2017 Page 3 of 7 permit program, and options for handheld issuance devices. The implementation of an outside vendor to process parking permits will enhance the Police Department's ability to effectively fulfill the Department's mission and provide greater service by using a paperless/digital permit. This will make the process easier for the resident applying and receiving the permit and will make validation and enforcement more efficient for officers using the License Plate Reader (LPR) on the handheld citation issuance devices. The primary goal of the committee was to find a qualified and experienced contractor to provide a comprehensive and interlinked system comprised of parking permit management and citation processing services. The committee began this project by contacting various police departments in Orange County to see what vendors were in the market, what type of handheld issuance devices were being used, and lessons learned while researching or implementing the different technologies and vendors. On July 6, 2016, the committee published a Request for Proposal (RFP) in an attempt to locate/identify potential vendors (see attached RFP). A total of seven (7) vendors submitted proposals, which were evaluated by the committee. As part of the evaluation process, the committee was asked to complete rating sheets to evaluate the effectiveness of each of the components. Each ranking on a specific category was given a numerical score from 1 (Poor) to 5 (Outstanding). The categories evaluated were quality and completeness of submitted proposal, project approach, project timeline/ implementation, professional references, qualifications and experience, and support and services. After compiling all of the rating results, a cumulative total was given to each category based on the average of all responses received. Then all categories were added and averaged to obtain one rating result. All results were rounded to the nearest hundredth. See below graphs for rating results: Vendor RFP Proj. Proj.

Turbo Data Systems received higher overall ratings, not including cost. The second highest evaluation result was iParq, with Phoenix Group and Data Ticket rounding out the top four. The committee then reviewed the seven (7) vendors submitted fee proposals which were submitted in a separate, sealed envelope. After thorough review of iParq's costly Fee Proposal, and based on the evaluation and selection criteria outlined in Section 7 of the RFP, the committee determined not to advance their proposal for further consideration. The committee then selected Data Ticket, the vendor with the next highest evaluation results to be included in the next selection process. The committee invited the three (3) highest scored vendors to conduct a presentation in front of the committee. These vendors were Turbo Data Systems, Phoenix Group Information Systems, and Data Ticket. The company representatives were to be prepared to discuss their specific experience providing services and equipment similar to those described in the RFP, project approach, estimated work effort, available resources, and other pertinent information distinguishing their company from others. They gave their presentations on August 18, 2016, at Tustin PD. During the presentation phase, the committee was able to view the software, handheld devices, and the parking citation collections process. After review and discussion of the three presentations, and based on the evaluation, proposal and selection criteria outlined in Section 7 of the RFP, the committee determined not to advance on Phoenix Group Information Systems proposal for further consideration. This narrowed the selection process to two (2) vendors, Turbo Data Systems and Data Ticket. During the handheld testing, the committee liked the all -in -one handheld device offered by both vendors. Users liked the convenience of the printer attached to the handheld electronic issuing device rather than having to carry a separate wireless Bluetooth printer. The Turbo Data Systems handheld issuance device software received considerably higher marks than that. of the Data Ticket offering, predominately due to the fact the software was more user friendly. Turbo Data Systems handheld hardware and software offers the ability to use the devices camera as a License Plate Reader (LPR). Officers will be able to use the LPR to scan a vehicle's license plate and the real-time software will provide confirmation of valid paperless/digital permit. This will not only make the process easier for the resident applying and receiving the permit, but it was also make validation and enforcement more efficient. Data Ticket's handheld device and software does not offer the ability to use the device's camera as an LPR for the parking permit program. Parking Permit Management and Citation Processing Services February 7, 2017 Page 5 of 7 During the handheld testing, the committee discovered the implementation of the Data Ticket product would require additional services. In order to transfer the data wirelessly, it would require an additional wireless cell plan from a separate vendor. These additional requirements would require a separate contract and would require an additional monthly service fee. Turbo Data Systems' proposal included and would manage the 4G Data Plan as part of the lease. During the review of the last and final fee proposals from Turbo Data Systems and Data Ticket, the cost and the timeline of reminder notices and other correspondence were reviewed. Turbo Data Systems' proposal proved to be the most cost-effective, while offering the highest customer service. At the onset of the research, the goal was to find a vendor that provided an integrated solution for the parking permit management and citation processing services. While both companies provide integrated solutions, the committee believes the Turbo Data System product is the more integrated solution. Turbo Data Systems will be able to integrate, at no additional cost, with the current Records Management System. Turbo Data Systems and Data Ticket, both companies were asked for their last and final fee proposal.

The evaluation results and the new fee proposals for both Turbo Data Systems and Data Ticket were computed based on a weighted scale. Turbo Data Systems received a higher overall score based on the evaluation and cost. Turbo Data Systems is a privately owned company with its corporate office located in Tustin. Turbo Data Systems has been processing Tustin Police Departments parking citations since 1985 and they also currently process Administrative Code Enforcement citations for the City. Turbo Data Systems is a State of California small business serving over 120 California municipalities and colleges. After reviewing Turbo Data Systems' product and interviewing the owner and high-level management within the company, we are of the opinion Turbo Data Systems meets the long term parameters required. Parking Permit Management and Citation Processing Services February 7, 2017 Page 7 of 7 In addition to the company's health, the committee researched customer references of other agencies that have selected and used Turbo Data System. They contacted Laguna Beach PD, San Fernando PD, Newport Beach PD, and Huntington Beach PD. Each contact person at the respective agencies had been actively involved in both the vendor selection and the deployment of the Turbo Data Systems product within their departments. Each representative said that the service they received from Turbo Data Systems was commensurate with their expectations in the post -award contract environment. The committee found nothing to indicate Turbo Data Systems' level of service after the formal award of contract would be anything less than exceptional. If this proposal is approved by the City Council, full implementation is expected to take approximately two months with a completion date in the latter part of 2016. CH LANO, JR.
