About this opportunity

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The Anchor School (TAS), a State Charter Schools Commission of Georgia public charter school, is seeking proposals for student transportation services through a Request for Proposal (RFP) for the 2025-2026 academic year. Located in south DeKalb County, the school currently serves 6th-8th grade students with plans to progressively expand to a middle and high school campus. The procurement seeks a single Student Transportation Provider (STP) to collaborate on designing and delivering comprehensive transportation services before and after school. The transportation services must accommodate the school's statewide attendance zone, which allows students from anywhere in Georgia to attend. The RFP was posted on March 18, 2025, with proposal submissions due by April 21, 2025. Qualified firms are required to submit their proposals via email and must demonstrate capabilities in creating a flexible transportation plan that can adapt to the school's growing student population. The school's transportation model emphasizes holistic adolescent development and requires providers to integrate with the school's community-based learning approach.

While specific set-aside designations or disadvantaged enterprise requirements are not explicitly detailed in the provided information, the RFP appears open to qualified transportation service providers. The school serves a diverse student population across Georgia, suggesting a potential preference for providers with experience in comprehensive educational transportation services. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are mentioned in the documentation. The RFP does not specify a precise budget range or award value for the transportation contract. The transportation services will need to support the school's unique educational model, which focuses on project-based learning and community partnerships. The contract will likely be for the 2025-2026 academic year, with potential for renewal or extension based on performance and the school's growth trajectory. Interested firms should be prepared to demonstrate flexibility, reliability, and alignment with the school's educational mission when submitting their proposals.

TAS is requesting emailed proposals from qualified firms to provide Student Transportation Services for the needs of the school in its second year of operation. This RFP is for school bus transportation services before and after school and will be awarded to a single STP who will collaborate with the school on the design of a school transportation plan and delivery method for a growing student population.
