CLIENT AGENCY HIGH-SPEED PHOTOLOG COLLECTION VEHICLE - REQUIREMENTS The Client Agency’s high-speed photolog collection vehicles (“CPCV”’s), including all on-board systems are a critical component of Client Agency’s in-house assessment of pavement conditions for its roadway network. Measurement of International Roughness Index (IRI), rutting, faulting, longitudinal slope, cross slope and cracking are required for the annual submission to Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Highway Performance Management System (HPMS) to fulfill Client Agency’s federal reporting obligations pursuant to 23 CFR Part 490 – National Performance Management Measures and as part of the Client Agency Pavement Data Quality Management Program. CPCV’s must meet or exceed all Federal and State requirements pertaining to safety, health, lighting, noise, emissions and other applicable regulations and standards in effect at the time of delivery. CPCV’s must contain the equipment that meet or exceed the specified minimum requirements, as determined by Client Agency. The following sub-sections cover the required functionality, components, and subsystems of the CPCV on which bidders will be evaluated. 1. Vehicle Contractor shall supply the latest model new FORD Transit XL Crew van(s) with a 3.5L EcoBoost V6 engine, medium roofline and 148" wheelbase. Vehicles and all on-board electronics and equipment must be field proven and tested at operating temperature ranges from 10°F to 120°F and must withstand storage at ambient temperatures ranges from 0°F to 120°F. The vehicle and all Sub-systems must remain fully operational at elevations up to 5,000 feet above sea level. CPCV(s) must meet the requirements for a “Class 1” profiling device as outlined in ASTM E-950, “Standard Test Method for Measuring Longitudinal Profile of Traveled Surfaces with an Accelerometer Established Inertial Profile Reference” and World Bank Technical Paper #46 “Guidelines for Conducting and Calibrating Road Roughness Measurements.” The Contractor shall provide an independent verification/certification that the system being provided meets ASTM E-950 requirements. CPCV(s) must also be capable of meeting all the requirements outlined in AASHTO M-328-14 “Standard Specification for Inertial Profiler”, AASHTO R-56-14 “Standard Practice for Certification of Inertial Profiling Systems” and AASHTO R-57-14 “Standard Practice for Operating Inertial Profiling Systems”. CPCV(s) must have the ability to measure pavement transverse profile in accordance with AASHTO R-88-18 “Standard Practice for Collecting the Transverse Pavement Profile” as well as the capability to measure pavement rutting and cross-slope in accordance with AASHTO R-87-18 “Standard Practice for Determining Pavement Deformation Parameters and Cross-Slope from Collected Transverse Profile.” The vehicles must be capable of meeting the provisional standards outlined in AASHTO PP-106-21 “Standard Specification for Assessment of Static Performance in Transverse Pavement Profiling Systems”, AASHTO PP-107-21 “Standard Specification for Assessment of Body Motion Cancellation in Transverse Pavement Profiling Systems”, AASHTO PP-108-21 “Standard Specification for Assessment of Navigational Drift Mitigation in Transverse Pavement Profiling Systems” and AASHTO PP-109-21 “Standard Specification for Assessment of Highway Performance of Transverse Pavement Profiling Systems”. CPCV(s) must be able to identify and quantify cracks in accordance with AASHTO R-85-18 “Standard Practice for Quantifying Cracks in Asphalt Pavement Surfaces from Collected Images Utilizing Automated Methods”. All components of the CPCV(s) (mentioned in this RFP specification or not) must be the manufacturer’s latest field-tested production model recognized for their reliability and durability. All software, electronics, hardware, specialized equipment, including all operating manuals in a PDF digital file format, necessary CPCV(s)for Client Agency to conduct both in field-testing and calibration. Acceptable documentation and certification for reliability and durability must include independent third-party verification by a nationally recognized certification facilty for the ability of the on-board data collection Sub-Systems (as listed under C. CLIENT AGENCY HIGH-SPEED PHOTOLOG COLLECTION VEHICLE – REQUIRED SUB-SYSTEMS) to perform repeatable longitudinal profile measurements, rut depth, linear referencing and all other data gathered by the CPCV(s).
