12- Pricing Sheet_BAFO.xlsx

This BAFO (Best and Final Offer) pricing sheet is submitted by a contractor in response to Arizona Department of Transportation's (ADOT) Request for Proposal for On Call Transit Consultant Services (BPM007068). The proposal establishes hourly rates across fourteen distinct contract roles to support multimodal transit consulting services on an as-needed basis. The pricing sheet reflects an estimated total project value of $2,475,080.00 based on anticipated staffing allocations, including positions such as Administrative/Financial Support, Analysts, Consultants, Developers, GIS/Technical staff, Graphics/Art/Multimedia specialists, Planners, Principals, Project Managers, Marketing and Meeting Specialists, Operations Managers, Purchasing/Procurement Officers, Technical Writers, and Grant Writers. The contract term spans twelve months with potential extension up to forty-eight months total, with work to be assigned through individual task orders. Proposals were due by September 10, 2025, and the contract will be funded through federal transit programs including FTA Sections 5311, 5310, and 5305.

The pricing sheet establishes not-to-exceed, fully burdened hourly rates ranging from $110.00 (Technical Writers) to $398.00 (Principal), with the total hours (10,910 hours) representing estimates only and not guaranteeing any minimum work volume. The contractor confirms that actual project budgets will be quoted at competitive rates on a task-by-task basis, typically as fixed-price or not-to-exceed project awards rather than time-and-materials arrangements, with the exception of other direct costs and travel, which will be reimbursed at actual cost per State Accounting Principles. All project-level quotes remain subject to negotiation. ADOT has established a 0.00% Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) contract goal, though DBE participation is encouraged. Eligible respondents include federally recognized tribal agencies, councils of governments, metropolitan planning organizations, non-profits, local governments, and transit authorities, with the multi-contract structure designed to create a flexible consulting pool addressing diverse rural and small urban transit needs across Arizona.
