Bidders must indicate all counties served or district offices where services can be provided, specify whether services offered are ambulatory, non-ambulatory, or both, and identify any additional languages spoken by drivers beyond English. Agencies retain discretion to issue a Request for Quote (RFQ) to elicit lower hourly costs, provided such costs do not exceed the stated maximum rates.
