About this opportunity

The University of Wyoming Athletics Department is seeking qualified suppliers to provide charter flight services for the Men's Basketball team through an Invitation for Bid (IFB) #JRB-2025-38. The procurement involves charter flights for up to thirty passengers, specifically requiring four separate round trips from Laramie, Wyoming to destinations including Albuquerque, NM; Reno, NV; Fresno, CA; and Logan, UT between January and February 2026. Bidders must electronically submit proposals through the BidNet platform by 2:00 p.m. Mountain Time on October 13, 2025, with questions accepted until October 6, 2025. Suppliers must meet comprehensive qualification requirements, including maintaining an ARGUS Gold rating, FAA Part 121 or Part 135 certification, and providing standard in-flight services such as non-alcoholic beverages and snacks. The contract will be awarded on an all-or-nothing basis, with the University reserving the right to select trips based on budgetary constraints and requiring detailed pricing for each round trip and alternative one-way flights.

The procurement offers a 5% preference for Wyoming residents and includes strict insurance requirements with Aircraft Liability Insurance minimums ranging from $80,000,000 for smaller aircraft to $1,000,000,000 for larger aircraft with 186-250 seats. The University will reimburse fuel costs exceeding a $5.00 per gallon base rate with proper documentation. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are mentioned, the bid appears open to qualified charter flight providers meeting the specified technical and insurance requirements. The procurement does not indicate an explicit budget range, but requires comprehensive pricing that includes all associated costs such as taxes, FBO fees, and landing fees. Potential vendors should note that the University is exempt from federal excise and state sales taxes, which may impact overall bid calculations and competitiveness.
