About this opportunity
Western Colorado University (WCU) in Gunnison, Colorado, is seeking a charter bus service for their 2025 football team travel through a Documented Quote (DQ) solicitation. The procurement covers five specific away game trips between September and November 2025, requiring two 56-passenger charter buses with restroom facilities to destinations including Amarillo, TX; Alamosa, CO; Durango, CO; Rapid City, SD; and Chadron, NE. Vendors must provide drivers with current Commercial Driver's Licenses and "passenger" endorsements, and demonstrate comprehensive insurance coverage including commercial general liability ($1M per occurrence), worker's compensation, and automobile liability. The bid evaluation will prioritize lowest overall cost, responsiveness to specifications, delivery dates, and overall value to the university. Proposals are due on July 1, 2025, at 5:00 p.m. MST/MDST, with potential award to one or multiple vendors based on the most advantageous proposal.
The solicitation does not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The university will provide lodging for drivers at overnight destinations and may provide meals, and the contract prohibits subcontracting without university permission. Any potential subcontractors must meet the same insurance and licensing requirements as the primary vendor. The solicitation allows for potential bus size modifications to better suit budget and space requirements, and pricing is expected to remain firm for all trips. While a specific budget range is not detailed in the documentation, the procurement is for charter bus services for five away game trips during the 2025 football season, suggesting a moderate-scale contract value commensurate with multi-destination charter bus services for a collegiate athletic program.
