Canada - RFI 24.191 - Bulk Fuel Management

Description

BC Transit, a Crown Corporation of British Columbia responsible for coordinating transit services across over 130 communities (excluding Metro Vancouver), is issuing this Request for Information (RFI) to gather market insights for procuring a reliable, automated hardware and software solution for dispensing bulk fluids such as diesel, CNG, oils, antifreeze, and lube. This solution is intended for its Victoria Transit Centres (Langford and Victoria), with potential future expansion to all BC Transit-owned centers. For 20 years, BC Transit has relied on an outdated version of FuelMaster to dispense fluids and collect data on kilometers and energy consumption, a manual process prone to errors. Recently, the system's reliability has declined significantly, resulting in data inaccuracies, missed kilometer reporting, and fuel inventory issues, posing risks to preventive maintenance compliance.  Full project details can be found on BC Transit’s online portal at: https://bctransit.bonfirehub.ca/projects/86542/detailsHigh-Level Project Timeline: ISSUE DATENovember 15th, 2024DEADLINE FO QUESTIONSNovember 25th, 2024CLOSING DATE AND TIMEDecember 3rd, 2024 Submission Instructions:Proposals must be submitted through BC Transit’s online portal at: https://bctransit.bonfirehub.ca/projectsSubmissions by other methods will not be accepted. Proponents should contact Bonfire at Support@GoBonfire.com for technical questions related to submissions, or visit Bonfire's help forum at https://bonfirehub.zendesk.com/hc  If you have any questions or require general information regarding bidding on this project, you can email ITprocurement@BCTransit.com.
