0-2 Boycott of Isreal.pdf

The file titled "0-2 Boycott of Israel.pdf" appears to be a policy or compliance document related to the Arizona Department of Transportation's On Call Transit Consultant Services procurement (RFP BPM007068). This document likely establishes boycott-related requirements or restrictions that bidders and contractors must adhere to as a condition of participating in the contract opportunity. The solicitation seeks multiple on-call contracts for multimodal transit consulting services across six primary disciplines: Transit Planning Studies, Transit Planning Tasks, Transit Operations Planning, Transit Operations Tasks, Strategic Planning, and Coordination and Mobility Management Projects. Work will be performed on an as-needed basis through individual task assignments over a twelve-month initial contract term with potential extension to forty-eight months total. Proposals were due by September 10, 2025, and the contract will support various transit-related activities including rural and small urban transit services, transportation for elderly and disabled populations, and transit planning initiatives across Arizona.

Contractors will be reimbursed based on hourly rates for actual work performed, with task-specific assignments detailing deliverables and performance metrics. Eligible respondents include federally recognized tribal agencies, councils of governments, metropolitan planning organizations, non-profits, local governments, and transit authorities. The procurement establishes a 0.00% Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) contract goal, though DBE participation is encouraged. Funding will be provided through federal transit programs including FTA Sections 5311, 5310, and 5305. The procurement approach enables ADOT to maintain a flexible, comprehensive consulting pool to address diverse transit needs throughout the contract period. The boycott-related document likely serves as a compliance requirement ensuring that contractors certify their adherence to state boycott policies as a condition of contract award and performance.
