About this award
The General Services Administration's Federal Acquisition Service awarded Blue Bird Body Company a delivery order valued at $221,033 for the manufacture and delivery of 54 Type D rear engine school buses, with performance in Macon, Georgia and completion targeted for February 12, 2027. This firm fixed-price delivery order carries no set-aside designation and represents one of approximately 50 task orders Blue Bird has received under its larger Indefinite Delivery Contract with GSA, which carries a $500 million ceiling through November 2029. Blue Bird Body Company, a Fort Valley, Georgia-based manufacturer of specialized transportation vehicles, serves as the prime contractor with no identified major subcontractors, maintaining full manufacturing and delivery responsibility from its Georgia facilities.
This award supports the General Services Administration's centralized fleet management mission by providing standardized transportation solutions to federal agencies in compliance with 2025 Federal Vehicle Standards. Blue Bird's selection reflects its established role as a leading supplier of school buses and specialty transportation vehicles to the federal government, further reinforced by recent Department of Energy grant funding of approximately $162.6 million under the Inflation Reduction Act to advance the company's manufacturing capabilities for electric and alternative-powered Type D school buses. The delivery order aligns with the broader federal initiative to modernize transportation fleets while supporting domestic manufacturing capabilities.
