This is a Request for Proposal (RFP) attachment document for On Call Transit Consultant Services issued by the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) under solicitation number BPM007068. The procurement seeks to establish multiple 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. Contractors will provide services on an as-needed basis through individual task assignments over a twelve-month initial contract term with potential extension up to forty-eight months total. The RFP is designed to support various transit-related activities including rural and small urban transit services, transportation for elderly and disabled populations, and transit planning initiatives. Proposals are due by September 10, 2025. Deliverables and performance measures will be specified in individual task assignments, with eligible respondents including federally recognized tribal agencies, councils of governments, metropolitan planning organizations, non-profits, local governments, and transit authorities.

Reimbursement will be based on hourly rates for actual work performed, with task-specific assignments determining the precise scope and financial parameters of individual consulting engagements. The solicitation 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. Specific award values are not explicitly stated; however, the multi-contract approach indicates ADOT intends to create a flexible, comprehensive consulting pool to address diverse transit needs across Arizona. The procurement structure allows ADOT significant flexibility in accessing specialized transit consulting services throughout the contract period without predetermined award amounts.
