The buses will be manufactured at Blue Bird's facility in Fort Valley, Georgia, with an ultimate completion date of April 19, 2026. This firm fixed-price delivery order carries no set-aside designation, reflecting the company's competitive position as an established supplier of school buses to federal agencies. Blue Bird Body Company serves as a key vendor under the GSA's 2025 Main Bus Program, a $500 million indefinite delivery contract that extends through November 24, 2029 and covers various bus types including school buses, adult work buses, and shuttle buses for federal fleet requirements.
Blue Bird Body Company has demonstrated significant capacity and commitment to federal transportation procurement, with a well-established track record of delivering school bus orders ranging from 32 to 78 units under firm fixed-price contracts with the GSA Federal Acquisition Service. The company also received a $162.6 million grant award from the U.S. Department of Energy's Manufacturing and Energy Supply Chain Demonstrations and Commercial Applications program to convert its manufacturing facility for electric vehicle and Type D school bus production, with completion targeted for December 31, 2025. This investment underscores Blue Bird's strategic role in supporting federal transportation needs while advancing the transition to sustainable, decarbonized transportation solutions.
