About this opportunity

The City of Portage, Wisconsin is seeking a qualified contractor to provide shared-ride taxi services within the city and a 10-mile radius, with a contract period from January 1, 2026, through December 31, 2030. The procurement is for a door-to-door, demand-responsive, advanced reservations taxi service available to the general public, operating seven days a week with specific service hours ranging from 6 AM to 10 PM on weekdays and 8 AM to 6 PM or 10 PM on weekends. The successful contractor must maintain a minimum fleet of 6 vehicles and provide comprehensive transportation services. The evaluation criteria will assess professional competence, operational capacity, experience, and pricing, with a total possible score of 100 points. Proposals are due on September 15, 2025, at 1:00 PM CST, with an anticipated contract award date of October 9, 2025, and service commencement on January 1, 2026. The contractor will be expected to provide detailed information about vehicle fleet, maintenance programs, insurance coverage, drug and alcohol testing protocols, and comprehensive record-keeping capabilities.

The procurement includes specific Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) participation goals, with a national DBE participation goal of 10% and a Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) transit DBE goal of 1.61% for Federal Fiscal Year 2023-2025. The contract will be partially funded by federal grant monies totaling $191,281 under Section 5311, which introduces additional federal compliance requirements outlined in the attached Federal Clauses document. The City of Portage will lease eight accessible vehicles to the contractor at $1 per vehicle per year, and the contract will be a firm-fixed price agreement with annual pricing adjustments based on the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U). Proposers must complete a comprehensive Bidders List documenting firm characteristics, and the contract includes three potential one-year option periods beyond the initial two-year base contract. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the proposal requires vendors to submit all-inclusive costs covering operational and administrative expenses, with no guaranteed minimum purchase quantity.
