This is an organizational chart document for the Transit Operations Planning Team (Discipline 3) associated with the Arizona Department of Transportation's On Call Transit Consultant Services procurement (RFP BPM007068). The chart appears to depict the hierarchical structure of the consulting team that would support transit operations planning activities, with Ravi Ambadipudi identified in a leadership position within the organization. The RFP establishes multiple on-call contracts for multimodal transit consulting services across six primary disciplines, with the Transit Operations Planning discipline being one of the designated service areas. 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. Proposals are due by September 10, 2025.

Reimbursement will be structured on hourly rate bases for actual work performed, with specific rates and financial parameters determined by individual task assignments. The contract is funded through federal transit programs including FTA Sections 5311, 5310, and 5305. 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. The procurement is designed to support diverse transit-related entities across Arizona, with particular focus on rural and small urban transit services, transportation for elderly and disabled populations, and transit planning initiatives.
