About this opportunity
The U.S. Embassy Brasilia is seeking to establish a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) for comprehensive rideshare services to support Department of State personnel across multiple locations in Brazil, including Brasilia, Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Recife, Porto Alegre, Manaus, and Belo Horizonte. The procurement requires contractors to provide passenger transportation services with vehicles, drivers, communication equipment, GPS tracking, 24/7 app and text message support, and all associated operational expenses including insurance coverage. Offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM), provide an English-speaking Project Manager, demonstrate business capabilities, and submit evidence of adequate personnel, equipment, and financial resources. The government intends to award the contract to the responsible company submitting the lowest-priced acceptable offer based on initial quotations without discussions, though discussions may be held if necessary. Electronic quotations must be submitted by June 26, 2025, at 12:00 PM to the specified email addresses, along with required documentation including SF-1449, pricing information, representations and certifications, and proof of SAM registration.
This opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside under NAICS code 485999 (All Other Transit and Ground Passenger Transportation), restricting competition to qualified small businesses. The contract period of performance spans from July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2026, representing a one-year base period for rideshare services. The procurement supports critical embassy operations during the New Embassy Compound construction phase and addresses transportation needs that emerged during the COVID-19 pandemic. Primary performance locations include major Brazilian cities where U.S. diplomatic facilities operate, with potential extension to other overseas locations as mission requirements dictate. The contractor will be required to provide monthly ridership reports, quarterly review reports, and detailed monthly invoicing, while maintaining compliance with all local laws and regulations in Brazil.
