This is a vendor bid worksheet for the University of Maryland Eastern Shore (UMES) Athletics Transportation Services solicitation ES26/27-001. The solicitation requests bids from transportation service providers to supply coach services for university athletics programs. The bid worksheet is designed for vendors to submit pricing across multiple coach sizes, including 15-passenger, 28-passenger, 33-38 passenger, 47-passenger, and 55-57 passenger vehicles. Vendors must provide standard pricing information including hourly rates, per-mile rates, overnight rates, and minimum charges for each coach category. The worksheet accommodates estimated annual pricing projections for Year 1 and Year 2, with line items for mileage, hourly usage, overnight services, and other miscellaneous charges.

The pricing structure requires vendors to establish fuel pricing per gallon as of a specified date and to detail additional fees and policies including deadhead charges, fuel surcharge policies, cancellation policies, driver hotel policies, driver meal policies, waiting time policies, and any other applicable fees. The worksheet calculates extended totals for each service category and provides a grand total across the two-year contract period. Vendors must complete all sections with their proposed rates and policies to enable the University to evaluate and compare bids based on cost-effectiveness and service terms for the athletics transportation program.
