SB0-2017 Presidential Inauguration Charter Bus Transportation Itinerary

The District of Columbia issued a state and local contract opportunity (ID: 66c85a5d829eb5d869072712) for charter bus transportation related to the 2017 Presidential Inauguration. The procurement appears to focus on providing comprehensive transportation services for inauguration-related logistics, specifically charter bus transportation. The contract opportunity was posted on November 4, 2016, with a proposal submission deadline of November 7, 2016, indicating an expedited procurement timeline. While specific details about the precise transportation requirements are limited, the contract seems designed to support movement of personnel, staff, or attendees during the presidential inauguration event. The brevity of the posting suggests this was likely a time-sensitive procurement targeting transportation providers with experience in large-scale, high-profile event logistics.

Based on the available information, no specific set-aside designations or enterprise restrictions are explicitly stated in the contract opportunity. The short window between posting and submission dates implies an urgent need for transportation services, which might limit competitive bidding opportunities. Without explicit budget information, it is difficult to determine the potential award value or budget range for this charter bus transportation contract. The procurement is specifically tied to the District of Columbia, indicating local government oversight and potential preference for vendors with regional familiarity or capability. Given the nature of presidential inauguration support, vendors would likely need demonstrated capabilities in secure, reliable, and coordinated transportation services with potential background check or security clearance requirements.
