DESCRIPTION
The agency is seeking a recycling engagement and analytics application solution that includes a resident-facing mobile application and web-based tool for waste and recycling education, outreach, service information, and notifications. The solution should support approximately 116,000 households receiving weekly refuse collection, biweekly recycling collection, and twice-yearly yard debris collection.
The platform should provide collection calendars, service-delay notifications, collection requirements, drop-off locations, special event information, reminders, and locally informed disposal guidance. An item search tool should support keyword and image searches, with map links and directions to drop-off and disposal locations preferred. The agency operates programs for curbside recyclables, glass, electronics, household hazardous waste, scrap metal, and yard debris through internal operations and contracted vendors.
Mobile application users should receive push notifications by default, while web users should be able to subscribe to email or text notifications and easily modify or cancel them. The system should support automated collection reminders, scheduled education and event notifications, emergency alerts, and persistent or banner notifications in the application and browser. Online payment and scheduling capabilities would be beneficial but are not mandatory. Questions must be submitted by September 28, 2026.
