Regional Highway Inventory Update 
Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG)
Submittal Deadline: October 18, 2006 

RFP Number: 07-049

ABOUT SCAG
Over the past four decades, the Southern California Association of
Governments (SCAG) has evolved as the largest of nearly 700 councils of
government in the United States, functioning as the Metropolitan
Planning Organization (MPO) for six counties: Los Angeles, Orange, San
Bernardino, Riverside, Ventura and Imperial.

As the designated MPO, SCAG is mandated by the federal government to
research and put together plans for transportation, growth management,
hazardous waste management, and air quality.

SCAG relies heavily on outside consultants and vendors to help
accomplish the overall mission and objectives of SCAG. We are always
striving to increase the breadth and depth of talent in our pool of
potential consultants and vendors, and are especially interested in
bringing more certified DBEs into the database.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
SCAG recently completed the calibration and validation of a new Regional
Travel Demand Model and is currently in the process of updating the
Heavy Duty Truck Model which is a part of the Regional Highway Inventory
Update.
