Westwood Busing and Transportation Services

The Westwood Community School District, in partnership with the Michigan Association of Counties (MAC) CoPro+ Program, has issued an RFP (Request for Proposals) for Busing and Transportation Services. The RFP seeks proposals from qualified vendors to provide bus and transportation services to support the transportation needs of various schools and locations within the Westwood Community School District and surrounding areas. The contract will be for an initial three-year term with two one-year renewal options. Key requirements include the scope of services, minimum qualifications, detailed specifications, delivery and acceptance terms, management and staffing requirements, and pricing schedules. Vendors are required to provide pricing that is the lowest available and must maintain that pricing throughout the contract term. The RFP outlines a 2% administrative fee to be remitted to the CoPro+ program quarterly based on actual sales volume. The resulting contract may be extended to other public municipalities, non-profit organizations, and schools statewide through the CoPro+ cooperative purchasing program.

The RFP does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The current incumbent vendor or contractor is not identified. The RFP also does not provide any information on the award value or budget range for this procurement. Vendors are required to submit their proposals by the due date of April 11, 2024.
