From the meeting
At the October 19, 2026 meeting, the council waived competitive bidding and authorized a software license and maintenance agreement with Trapeze Software Group, d/b/a TripSpark Technologies, and Routematch Software LLC. The Transit Department said it needed upgraded software to improve efficiency and customer service. The agreement covered NovusDR, Novus FFR, Novus COM, Notifications, DriverMate, TransitMiner, and Rides on Demand, with a total pricing figure of $314,649 in the attached summary.
The current TripSpark/Routematch relationship makes this a useful incumbent follow-on conversation around implementation, hosting, and annual maintenance.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
