About this file

This is an Independent Cost Estimate (ICE) prepared by the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) for the operation and maintenance of compressed natural gas (CNG) fueling stations serving three OCTA bases: Anaheim, Garden Grove, and Santa Ana. The procurement seeks qualified contractors to provide CNG fueling facility operations and maintenance services. The contract term is three years with an option term date of February 4, 2026. The cost estimate is based on projected CNG therm usage across the three bases: Anaheim Base at 1,792,742 therms annually, Garden Grove Base at 1,578,423 therms annually, and Santa Ana Base at 2,492,183 therms annually, for a combined total of 5,863,348 therms per year. The estimate does not specify response deadlines, bidder conferences, or site visit requirements within the document.

The total estimated cost for the three-year contract is $2,181,165.00, calculated at $0.124 per therm, yielding approximately $727,055 annually. The cost estimate is substantiated using data from the current agreement with Trillium USA and OCTA's historical CNG therm usage projections. The procurement will utilize Federal Transit Administration (FTA) funds. The ICE was prepared by Contracts Analyst Christine Herrera on February 4, 2026, and is based on the current incumbent contractor's pricing structure and the authority's consumption forecasts. The document indicates this is a new contract procurement requiring submission of the ICE, requisition, and scope of work to CAMM before procurement initiation.
