About this award
Blue Bird Body Company, a Fort Valley, Georgia-based manufacturer of specialized transportation vehicles, has been awarded a delivery order by the General Services Administration Federal Acquisition Service valued at $235K for the manufacture and delivery of 78 Type D rear engine school buses. The contract is firm fixed price with an award date of January 30, 2026, and an ultimate completion date of January 30, 2027. Manufacturing and delivery will occur at Blue Bird's facility in Macon, Georgia. This delivery order carries no set-aside designation and represents one of approximately 50 task orders issued under Blue Bird's broader Indefinite Delivery Contract with GSA's Federal Acquisition Service, a $500M multiple-award contract established in November 2024 to support federal agency fleet management through 2029.
Blue Bird Body Company serves as the prime contractor with no documented major subcontractors, maintaining complete manufacturing responsibility for the vehicles. The General Services Administration's Federal Acquisition Service, a civilian federal agency, administers this program to provide standardized transportation solutions meeting 2025 Federal Vehicle Standards. This award aligns with Blue Bird's established role as a leading supplier of school buses and specialty transportation vehicles to federal agencies, and reflects the company's recent strategic investments in manufacturing capabilities, including a $162.568M Department of Energy grant awarded in January 2025 to expand production capacity for electric and alternative-powered Type D school buses under the Inflation Reduction Act program.
