City of Austin Recommendation for Action File #: 24-4167, Agenda Item #: 4/4/2024(cid:4) Posting Language Authorize negotiation and execution of a contract for landing fee management software with Passur Aerospace, Inc., for a term of five years in an amount not to exceed $650,000. [Note: Sole source contracts are exempt from the City Code Chapter 2-9B (Minority-Owned and Women- Owned Business Enterprise Procurement Program); therefore, no subcontracting goals were established]. Lead Department Financial Services Department. Client Department(s) Department of Aviation. Purchasing Language: Sole Source. Fiscal Note Funding in the amount of $45,606 is available in the Fiscal Year 2023-2024 Operating Budget of the Department of Aviation.

For More Information: Direct questions regarding this Recommendation for Council Action to the Financial Services Department - Central Procurement at: FSDCentralProcurementRCAs@austintexas.gov or 512-974-2500.

Additional Backup Information: The contract is for PASSUR Landing Fee Management (LFM) system. It provides independently verified, standardized, automated, and detailed aircraft landing data, used by Aviation accounts receivable staff to invoice passenger and cargo carriers for landing according to their contract terms.
