About this opportunity

The Department of Transportation's Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) is seeking qualified vendors to maintain and expand the Intercity Bus Atlas (ICBA) project through a Request for Information (RFI). The primary objective is to develop a comprehensive national map of scheduled intercity bus services by identifying vendors with direct access to schedule and network data for scheduled intercity passenger bus providers. Vendors must be capable of generating mappable General Transit Feed Specification (GTFS) files that include stop locations and route shapes, and will be required to develop a GTFS Summary Table tracking carrier data, conduct a project kick-off meeting, and provide quarterly updates to BTS. The RFI requires interested vendors to submit an 8-page capability statement and complete a detailed skills questionnaire by May 16, 2025, at 3 PM. Evaluation will likely focus on vendors' ability to access comprehensive intercity bus carrier schedule information and generate accurate, mappable transit data.

The contract is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, with eligible vendors including Small Business (SB), Small Disadvantaged Business (SDB), 8(a) Certified SDB, HUBZone SB, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), and Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB). While specific award values are not disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice, the project is structured as an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with a projected five-year performance period. The procurement falls under NAICS Category 541611 for Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services, and PSC Category R499 for Professional Support Services. The contract will support BTS's strategic goal of creating a comprehensive national mapping system for intercity bus transportation, which will require vendors to maintain current and accurate transit network information through ongoing data collection and analysis.
