About this file

This is a Price Proposal Form for the City of Boston's Coordinated Street Furniture Program (CSFP), Event #EV00017655, with proposals due December 2, 2026, at 12:00 PM Boston time. The program requires contractors to manage, maintain, expand, and modernize Boston's advertising-supported street furniture infrastructure over a ten-year contract term. Required baseline capital elements include 200 refurbished existing shelters with static advertising, 100 existing shelters converted to digital advertising, 100 new standard shelters (non-ad), 100 new standard shelters (static ad), 200 new standard shelters (digital ad), 100 new micro-shelters (non-ad), 200 new micro-shelters (static ad), 40 new high-capacity shelters (20 static ad and 20 digital ad), 100 existing city information panels or pillars converted to digital advertising, 100 replacement non-advertising benches, and 480 new trash and recycling receptacles. Additional discretionary program elements for City consideration include 500 ePaper screens, 40 shade structures, 20 bike parking shelters, 6 replacement automated public toilets, and 30 replacement green roofs. Bidders must also provide maintenance costs for existing green roofs (30 units), existing automated public toilets (6 units), non-advertising benches (120 units), and discretionary maintenance for clocks (9 units), plazas (3 units), and flagpoles (10 units).

Pricing must be submitted using standardized Excel and PDF forms provided by the City, with all pricing submitted separately from technical proposals through the Supplier Portal. The City will comparatively evaluate only Scenario 1 pricing, which covers required inventory and required maintenance costs, while additional program elements and discretionary maintenance will be considered for inclusion at the City's discretion but will not be comparatively evaluated. Bidders must assume a 3% annual Consumer Price Index adjustment and provide unit costs for all capital items, annual maintenance costs, and annual administrative costs. Revenue projections must be completed for ten years, including gross advertising revenue by program element type. The Price Proposal Form includes five worksheets: Capital and Operating Costs, Revenue Projections, Capital Investment, Revenue Share, and Price Proposal Explanation. Contractors must propose a City revenue share percentage for four scenarios, with optional Minimum Annual Guarantees. The Total Price for Contract Term, calculated automatically from required capital and operating costs, must be entered on the Supplier Portal for bid evaluation. Files must be renamed with the firm name and "Boston CSFP Price Proposal" and submitted in both Excel and PDF formats.

FIRM NAME:
EVENT # EV00017655
CITY OF BOSTON COORDINATED STREET FURNITURE PROGRAM
PRICE PROPOSAL FORMS
PROPOSAL DUE DATE: DECEMBER 2, 2026, 12:00 PM BOSTON TIME
OVERVIEW
The purpose of these forms is to provide the City of Boston with a standardized view of your financial proposal, allowing for an objective comparison of all proposals.

The City has determined a required baseline of refurbished and new program elements, their quantities, and maintenance to build a Total Price for the Contract Term that will be evaluated comparatively among bidders; these are boxes 2 and 3 on the Capital & Operating Costs sheet.

The City is requiring bidders to provide pricing for additional program elements, their maintenance, and the maintenance of other City assets. These are items that the City will not evaluate comparatively among bidders but will consider for inclusion in the resulting contract at its discretion; these are boxes 4 and 5 on the Capital & Operating Costs sheet. Bidders may also propose any additional program element or service for the City's consideration in these boxes.

The Revenue Projections and Capital Investment sheets are broken into two sections. Box 1 relates to the City's required baseline and Box 2 relates to any additional program element that the City is considering or that is proposed by you, the bidder.

The Revenue Share provides four (4) scenarios. Scenario 1 considers only the City's required baseline and will be part of its comparative evaluation of Price Proposals. The other scenarios consider the required baseline with variations of including discretionary program elements and maintenance.
