Question 1
Posted: 3/26/2024
Question: Would the District be interested in bids from cost-effective alternative transportation solutions utilizing sedans and SUVs as a supplement in cases where transportation needs are most efficiently met by smaller vehicles? In order to offer the most price competitive and cost-effective transportation solution, our pricing is not based on a traditional bus route per day/hour pricing model. Rather, our pricing is a base price fee + a per-mile fee. May we adjust the proposal to reflect our pricing structure to ensure that the cost is evaluated appropriately? in order to assist proposers in offering competitive pricing, please provide the following information: Current and/or previous contractor(s) Current contractor rates Sample invoice(s) Please provide historical and/or estimated information on the following: Monthly ridership Average number of riders per one-way trip Number of one-way trips per month Average mileage per one-way trip Total trip mileage per month
