RFX-EQ-60251 - Love My Air - Air Quality Phone Application

This RFP is issued to provide the selection process for a contractor to deliver a custom or semi-custom air quality phone application for use in Denver’s Love My Air (LMA) program.

Since 2018, the Love My Air program has begun deploying cutting edge air sensor technology to create a citywide air quality monitoring network and evidence-based health intervention program at public schools in Denver, resulting in behavior change and better-informed policy to improve health outcomes. The program, run by the City and County of Denver, in partnership with DPS, has 21 participating schools, with a goal of 40 by the end of 2021. Partner schools were selected based on asthma rates, economic indicators (such as free and reduced lunch rates), and their capacity to actively participate in the program. Each partner school receives an air quality sensor, that monitors hyper-local real-time PM2.5 pollution. Data is relayed to a webpage, DenverAQ.com, that community members can visit 24/7. This webpage is also displayed on a TV monitor inside the school.

While monitoring air quality is foundational to the project, the heart of the solution is the collaborative, culturally-appropriate and scientifically-validated approach to programming. Staff worked closely with principals, teachers, and nurses to co-developed program options, such as STEM curriculum, anti-idling campaigns, plans for high air pollution days (e.g., wildfires), asthma education, and more.
