The Wasatch Front Regional Council (WFRC), in conjunction with the Cache Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO), Dixie MPO, Mountainland Association of Governments (MAG), the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT), and the Utah Transit Authority (UTA), is soliciting Requests for Proposals from firms with financial analysis expertise to modernize the existing Utah’s Unified Transportation Plan Financial Model, which will be used to develop the financial assumptions of the 2027-2050 Utah’s Unified Transportation Plan.
The Unified Plan is a collaborative effort between transportation agencies across the state of Utah including the State’s four MPOs, UDOT, and UTA. The Unified Plan partners work together to develop common goals, planning time horizons, performance measures, and financial assumptions so that key collaborative efforts are consistent across the State while allowing for regional/local goals, needs, and variations. UDOT, UTA, and MPOs agree on which projects and needs to include in the Unified Plan, along with timing, funding, and how to measure their effectiveness in meeting shared objectives. All financial assumptions, cost estimates, phasing, and revenue projections that go into Unified Plan come from the Financial Model.
Questions regarding the RFP deadline must be submitted by April 30, 2024 by noon MST, clarifications to the RFP posted by May 2, 2024 by noon MST, and the deadline is May 10, 2024 by noon MST.
