The U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration ( FHWA ) seeks Applications from public/private partnerships, to conduct one or more Field Operational Tests ( FOTs ) that will demonstrate effective voice and data interfaces between Telematics Service Providers ( TSPs ) and Public Safety Answering Points ( PSAPS ). The FOT(s) will demonstrate and evaluate communications approaches that provide Telematics Service Providers (TSPs) an ability to directly access emergency (9-1-1)operators. This test will also demonstrate the process by which TSP call centers identify and make contact with the appropriate PSAP/9-1-1 operator, based upon the location of a telematics equipped vehicle. Applicants will be required to provide at least 20 percent match to the federal funding, and show compelling written evidence that working relationships are established. The FHWA anticipates making multiple awards under this Request For Applications ( RFA ). The ENTIRE RFA will be published on the Electronic Posting System ( EPS ) at HTTP://WWW.EPS.GOV. Therefore, all prospective Applicants are instructed to obtain the RFA from those sources. The FHWA does not plan to issue any HARD copies of the RFA to any prospective Applicant. Prospective Applicants are instructed not to send letters, faxes or e-mails requesting the RFA. Telephoned, e-mailed and faxed requests for the RFA will not be accepted. Any subsequent amendments to the RFA will likewise be published on the EPS at the Internet address referenced above. The U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration does not plan to mail out copies of any such Amendments. It shall be the responsibility of each prospective Applicant to closely and frequently monitor the EPS for any possible Amendments. THE RFA WILL BE FULLY COMPETITIVE. There is no incumbent.*****
