Bikeshare Conversion & Operations
Classic Turnkey Bikeshare
Important Notes:
The final costs will be adjusted according to the complexity and extent of involvement in the tech conversion (both software and hardware) process.
We can operate any smart lock, be it cellular or Bluetooth, given access to necessary tech info and software cooperation from the vendor.
Access to the hardware vendor is crucial for potential replacement parts. If criteria aren't met, upgrading to our smart locks may be required for the conversion.
Not all assets may be converted if access to required data from the hardware vendor is unavailable, emphasizing the importance of cooperation for a successful conversion.
Our Questions:
What brand of smart locks do you have on the bikes? Can you send me a spec sheet and a picture of the locks & bikes?
How do you currently source hardware (whether for replacement parts or whole bikes), and how does that work (in terms of logistics/process, finances, and reporting/accountability) with your current vendor relationship?
What are some of the improvements youβd like to see in your program with a transition to new software/operator?
What is your timeline for potentially shifting to a new provider?
What are the barriers to doing so? What are your goals for bike sharing in the community? Is this more of a recreational or transportation amenity? Who are you serving? Who would you like to better serve?
