Integrated Roadway Management Platform

The City of Rock Hill, South Carolina, is soliciting proposals for a single, fully integrated roadway management platform to oversee approximately 205 centerline miles of roadway. The required system must integrate roadway imagery, pavement and asset assessment, maintenance and capital planning, and work order management into a common map and database. Key technical requirements include AI-powered distress condition scoring, automated detection of assets such as manholes and traffic signs, and the ability to collect data using ordinary vehicles via smartphones. The platform must also support remaining-service-life analysis, budget forecasting, and the direct generation of work orders from AI-detected defects or citizen reports. The contract will be awarded to the highest-scoring proposal based on a weighted evaluation system, with the heaviest weight placed on AI technology and pavement evaluation capabilities (30%), followed by company experience (20%), software functionality (20%), price (20%), and implementation and support (10%). Proposals must be submitted electronically via the e-Procurement Portal by December 10, 2026. The resulting agreement will feature monthly invoicing with a 30-day payment term, and the City reserves the right to hold up to 10% retainage until all deliverables are satisfactory. Vendors must maintain liability and workers' compensation insurance and certify compliance with various employment laws, including the South Carolina Code of Laws regarding unauthorized aliens.
