The solicitation is open to private, public, and nonprofit sectors, with a bid submission period from March 13, 2025, to May 14, 2025. The grant will fund new school buses across Minnesota, focusing on a mixture of fuel technologies and targeting the reduction of diesel emissions in the state.
The grant opportunity is structured with a single line item for school bus replacement, with a quantity of one unit. While specific pricing details are not completed in the document, the grant is designed to partially fund bus replacements. The solicitation includes diversity and inclusion considerations, encouraging participation from small businesses, businesses owned by racial minorities, women, persons with substantial physical disabilities, veterans, or businesses located in economically disadvantaged counties. Interested bidders must be registered as either a bidder or supplier to participate, and the event will use US Dollars as the currency.
