The award was issued on March 17, 2026, with an ultimate completion date of March 17, 2027. Manufacturing and delivery will occur at Blue Bird's facility in Macon, Georgia. This delivery order is issued under Blue Bird's larger Indefinite Delivery Contract with GSA's Federal Acquisition Service, established in November 2024 with a $500 million ceiling extending through November 2029, which serves as the master vehicle for procuring various bus configurations to support federal agencies' centralized fleet management requirements.

The General Services Administration, a civilian federal agency, administers this program to provide standardized transportation solutions meeting 2025 Federal Vehicle Standards for federal agency fleet operations nationwide. Blue Bird's role in federal transportation procurement has been reinforced by significant recent investments, including a $162.568 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy under the Inflation Reduction Act to convert manufacturing facilities for electric and alternative-powered vehicle production, reflecting the federal government's commitment to advancing clean energy transportation solutions.
