The Macomb County Department of Roads is soliciting proposals for Innovative Signal Optimization services for a period of up to five years, spanning January 1, 2027, through December 31, 2031. The scope of work involves signal optimization for multiple projects, with an average of 70 locations per project. Key deliverables include the provision of Flow Labs licensing for Luminus Probe-Based Signal Performance Measures and Luminus Plus Integrated Signal Performance Measures, while Optimus Traffic Signal Optimization licensing remains an optional tool. The agency intends to utilize a cost-plus-fixed-fee contract structure, with separate contracts required for each individual project. Selection is strictly quality-based, and the agency will award the contract to the single highest-ranked firm. To be eligible, consultants must be prequalified by the Michigan Department of Transportation for Design - Traffic Signal Operations. Evaluation criteria include prequalification status, absence of conflicts of interest, and adherence to Disadvantaged Business Enterprise goals. Proposals must be submitted electronically via Bid Express by November 3, 2026, and must not exceed seven pages, excluding resumes. Crucially, proposals must not include any costs, prices, or rate schedules, as such inclusions will result in immediate rejection; the top-ranked firm will be contacted separately to submit a cost proposal.
