Official notice and attachments

Description

The Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) Joint Program Office (JPO) looks to accelerate the replication of innovative technology solutions developed by large-scale deployment projects that it sponsors. ITS JPO believes that successful demonstration of these solutions by multiple agencies validates the technology's maturity and readiness for broader implementation across the industry.

The purpose of this Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) is to award up to five (5) operational pilots that will test integrated technology solutions developed and deployed by the ITS4US Deployment Program. Each awardee will develop, test, and deploy solutions modeled on ITS4US deployment project documentation and its associated open-source software. In addition, the awardees will form a deployer cohort where they receive USDOT-funded technical support designed to accelerate implementation.

Awardees can build faster, better, and cheaper by launching related efforts together, and use the insight of peers who have recently succeeded in addressing similar challenges. See Attachments for further information.
