Metro and BSOOB seek a well-qualified consulting firm to conduct a peer review of no fewer than eight (8) comparable transit agencies in the United States, including at least three (3) in New England and provide written summary of how the DiriGo system compares. Comparable agencies should be based on annual ridership, operating budget, fleet size, and fare collection technology. The comparison of these agencies should address similarities and differences between base fare, fare caps/passes, fare discounts, partnership agreements, administrative expense of the fare programs and fare recovery ratios.
