Para-Transit Electric

Macon-Bibb County Transit Authority is requesting proposals for the design, manufacture, and delivery of up to 7 twelve-passenger and 2 wheelchair-accessible para-transit electric buses (minimum 22 feet length) under RFP 7609-1, with proposals due July 1, 2022. The procurement carried a DBE (Disadvantaged Business Enterprise) participation requirement, as evidenced by the mandatory DBE form submission in the bid checklist.

Buses will be delivered to Macon-Bibb County Transit Authority at 2737 Broadway, Macon, Georgia 31206 and to Georgia Department of Transportation authorized locally operated Georgia State para-transit systems over a three-year contract term. All buses must include required associated equipment. The Transit Authority will conduct in-plant inspection of vehicles prior to final delivery and acceptance.

Bidders must submit proof of SAM.gov registration, signed federal construction clauses, a signed DBE form, and bid proposals. Six addenda (numbered 1 through 6) were issued during the solicitation period; potential bidders should review all addenda in conjunction with the base RFP for complete specifications, pricing terms, delivery schedules, and evaluation criteria.

ABC Company was selected as the awarded vendor. The source does not disclose the estimated contract value, incumbent vendor information, evaluation criteria weighting, or specific technical specifications beyond bus capacity and minimum length requirements.
