Consultant Services for the Regional Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Platform

The Stanislaus Council of Governments (StanCOG) seeks a qualified Consultant who possesses 
expertise in implementing and providing continued support for a Transportation Demand 
Management (TDM) Platform. 

The Stanislaus region is in a federally designated San Joaquin Valley Air Basin, which is designated 
as a non-attainment area. StanCOG is required to implement a program to enhance air quality 
and help reduce congestion through TDM strategies. The TDM program aims to address some of 
the region’s most pressing concerns, including traffic congestion, air quality, livable communities, 
public health, dependence on fossil fuels, environmental health, greenhouse gas (GHG) 
emissions, and climate change.

The Request for Proposal is for a TDM Platform, currently served by StanisCruise. The “platform” 
should: be provided as a website and iOS / Android app; provide information about different 
transportation options to the public; help users find carpools / vanpools; facilitate trip logging 
and verification for all transportation modes (bike, walk, transit, car, electric vehicle, motorcycle, 
etc.); facilitate TDM programs such as guaranteed / emergency ride home, community carshare, 
transit subsidies, telework subsidies, and other sustainable transportation campaigns; facilitate 
distribution of TDM program incentives; and be user-friendly and accessible.
