About this award
The General Services Administration's Federal Acquisition Service awarded a delivery order to Blue Bird Body Company on February 27, 2024, for the procurement of 44 adult Type D rear engine work buses. This firm fixed-price delivery order, valued at $590,496, carries a contract ceiling of $590,496 and requires ultimate completion by October 21, 2026. The buses will be manufactured and delivered from Blue Bird's production facility in Fort Valley, Georgia. No set-aside designation was utilized for this procurement, indicating the award was made through standard competitive processes. As a leading manufacturer of school buses and specialty vehicles based in Fort Valley, Blue Bird Body Company brings substantial experience in federal transportation vehicle procurement, having consistently delivered large-scale bus orders to government agencies.
This delivery order is issued under Blue Bird Body Company's broader Indefinite Delivery Contract with the GSA Federal Acquisition Service, known as the 2025 Main Bus Program, which carries a $500 million ceiling and extends through November 24, 2029. The contract aligns with the federal government's fleet management and transportation requirements, leveraging Blue Bird's established capabilities as a key supplier of transportation vehicles. The company's manufacturing expertise is further supported by a recent $162.57 billion grant from the U.S. Department of Energy for converting its production facility to manufacture electric vehicles and Type D school buses, positioning Blue Bird to support the government's long-term sustainability and fleet modernization objectives.
