Description
Purpose of the eRFI
This electronic Request for Information (eRFI) is being issued to solicit information from interested suppliers with respect to UNG - Autonomous Vheicle (bus) for the University of North Georgia (UNG) (hereinafter, the State Entity) as further described in this eRFI. The State Entity will use the information generated by this eRFI in conjunction with other information available to the State Entity to determine the solution that it is in the best interests of the State Entity to fulfill this need.
The University of North Georgia is seeking to engage an autonomous vehicle supplier to provide a turnkey autonomous shuttle bus pilot program to begin August 2025. UNG wishes any interested suppliers to provide this program with a 3-month trial period on our Gainesville campus. Additionally, UNG would like potential suppliers to provide a full cost estimate for the 3-month trial period to include infrastructure requirements UNG would need to facilitate the program. The purpose of this trial is to investigate the use of autonomous transportation by our student population on the Gainesville campus. The autonomous vehicle program will serve as a ¿real world¿ research application. NO GUARANTEE OF CONTINUED RELATIONSHIP WITH INSTITUTION POST-TRIAL.
Overview of the eRFI Process
The objective of the eRFI is to gather information to assist the State Entity in its consideration of available resources/methods to fulfill the need/goal identified above. The eRFI method is not a competitive solicitation method and, as a result, does not satisfy the requirement for competitive bidding. The eRFI method is no more than an information gathering tool and such information gathered may or may not be used by the State Entity to develop a competitive solicitation. Suppliers are not required to respond to an eRFI and a supplier¿s failure to respond to an eRFI will not prohibit the supplier¿s participation in any competitive solicitation that may result from the eRFI. However, suppliers are strongly encouraged to respond to eRFIs as this is a great way to ensure the State Entity is aware of the suppliers¿ available goods an
