Goa Electronics Limited has floated an Expression of Interest (EOI) for selection of an agency for the supply, installation and maintenance of digital fare meters with a printer, GPS device and panic button integrated with overhead display board for 20,000 passenger taxis on behalf of the Directorate of Transport, Government of Goa.
Interested parties have until February 5, at 3:30 pm to convey their interest to Goa Electronics Limited.
The floating of the EoI is in view of the orders given by the High Court enforcing the use of digital meters for the tourist taxis in the state and additionally as per the Rule 125-H of CMVR, all public service vehicles as defined under clause(35) of Section 2 of the Act, shall be equipped with or fitted with a vehicle location tracking device and one or more emergency buttons.
Once the expression of interest is complete GEL along with the department will freeze on the specifications based on the feasibility and the availability of the technology in the market and its relevance to the department and the RFP will be prepared and floated. Only those vendors who participate in the EOI will be allowed to take part in the RFP.
Once the RFP is floated, based on the technical and financial evaluation a Rate Contract will be devised whereby parties will be empanelled at the L1 rate for supply of the devices.
GEL has proposed that the party quoting L1 rates will be given exclusive supply rates for initial three months. Subsequently, all vendors qualifying through the RFP and agreeing to match the L1 rates will be empanelled with the DOT for the supply of the meters with the department of transport reserving the right to restrict the number of vendors in the empanelment process.
The Transport Department is seeking to identify a comprehensive digital meter which will encompass a printer, a GPS device and a panic button integrated with overhead display to ensure compliance of all requirements through a single device.
However, the feasibility of the manufacturers who have such devices readily available in the market and the feasibility of having these devices manufactured and supplied within the time frame required needs to be ascertained through a thorough market study prompting the floating of an Expression of Interest to thoroughly understand the market availability towards this technology.
In addition, the meters supplied
should be able to transfer the passenger TAXI movement data on a periodical basis to the CTRS (Central Tracking Response System) application developed by GEL and installed at SDC (State
Data Centre), through GPRS and GPS devices.
This data will be accessed through a web-based application namely CTRS from the nominated control rooms i.e. the nearest police station, the police control room and the MHA control room.
