About this file
This is a state price quote specification document issued by the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI) in Washington state for school bus quotations to be used by school districts. The document solicits price quotes from school bus dealers for a TYPE C60 electric bus with 48-passenger seating capacity, available in both non-lift and lift configurations. Vendors must meet or exceed detailed state-supported specifications covering chassis and body components, including electric propulsion systems with a minimum 130 kWh battery capacity, 190 horsepower motors, air brakes, LED lighting systems, heating systems, wheelchair lift options, and two-way communications equipment. The quotation process does not result in direct contracts with OSPI but rather generates a published list of accepted price quotes that school districts may use to place orders directly with dealers. Vendors must provide estimated delivery dates, warranty information, and documentation including line setting tickets, owner's manuals, repair manuals, and warranty agreements at the time of delivery.
The quoted price is based on payment within 30 days after delivery to the school district without sales tax, with separate pricing for electric buses without lift and with lift configurations. The specification document also includes Part II, which outlines district-supported optional features available at additional cost, such as air conditioning, anti-spray devices, backup alarms, enhanced braking systems, auxiliary heating, noise reduction, video camera systems, suspension upgrades, and window treatments. Vendors must clearly identify all items bid and specify manufacturer information, technical specifications, and pricing for each component. The document requires vendors to identify service and repair facilities for both chassis and body work, ensuring ongoing support and parts availability for school districts utilizing the quoted buses.
