Specifications include, but are not limited to: Ensuring safety of the traveling public, protecting taxpayer funded infrastructure in roads and bridges, and enabling efficient travel of oversize (OS) and overweight (OW) traffic throughout WV are critical responsibilities of the WVDOT. Currently, WVDOT utilizes an automated OS/OW permitting system provided and hosted by Bentley Systems, Inc which provides real-time live load analysis of most bridge structures through use of existing Bentley LAHPS dataset/model information. In addition, the system manages route restrictions and provides a web-based user interface (UI).; Recently WVDOT has undergone a production load rating system change, with all routine bridge load rating performed with AASHTOWare Bridge Rating (BrR). For this reason, WVDOT seeks an automated permitting solution that will provide all necessary requirements outlined in this RFQ while directly interfacing with BrR for real-time live load analysis of WVDOT bridges.; The overall purpose of this RFQ is to solicit bids for the development and maintenance of a new automated OS/OW hauling permit system (AHPS) that directly interfaces with BrR’s Load Rating Tool (LRT) and is able to utilize data from WVDOT’s current bridge inspection database (currently this is Bentley Asset Reliability Inspections). In addition, the AHPS will also need to meet the following agency requirements: 1.1 Must integrate fully with the West Virginia State Treasurer’s Office (STO) EGovernment payment system to capture all payments. 1.2 Must provide a user-friendly, quick, and easy permit application for hauling permit applicants. 1.3 Must provide thorough and complete route analysis of all routes within WVDOT network, including Interstate, US, WV, and county routes. 1.4 Must provide an automated process that maintains WVDOT’s current level of auto-issuance of OS/OW permits (80-85%). 1.5 Must provide real-time data exchanges, as appropriate. 1.6 Must provide a secured solution with ample oversight of all HPS operations. 1.7 Must provide the ability to modify or adapt AHPS as needed, based on business changes that result from WVDOT initiatives, future legislation and or FHWA mandates and other internal or external sources as requested by WVDOT.
