The document is a Request for Proposals (RFP) for charter bus services issued by Fauquier County. The document outlines the requirements and criteria for submitting a proposal, as well as the evaluation and award process.
The RFP specifies that trade secrets or proprietary information submitted by an Offeror will not be subject to public disclosure under the Virginia Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). Offerors are required to submit a completed certification page, the RFP, and any addendums, acknowledgments, and insurance checklist.
The proposal must include information about the condition and amenities of the vehicles to be provided, as well as the Offeror's experience in providing charter bus services. Offerors are also required to provide a minimum of three references that can attest to their experience and qualifications.
The RFP also requests information about additional services offered, such as vehicles for long-distance trips with restroom facilities and video capability, as well as experience with special populations such as youth and seniors.
The cost of services is an important factor in the evaluation process, and Offerors are required to provide a price breakdown for each service separately, as well as sample quotes for specific trips of different sizes.
The evaluation criteria include experience in providing charter bus services, condition and amenities of vehicles, variety of additional services offered, experience with special populations, quality and completeness of the proposal, and cost of services.
The document states that the Owner will select two or more Offerors deemed to be fully qualified and best suited based on the evaluation factors, and negotiations will be conducted with the selected Offerors. The award of contracts will be based on the best proposals, and the Owner may cancel the RFP or reject proposals at any time. The intention is to award contracts to multiple contractors.
The document also includes general conditions and instructions to bidders/offerors, stating that the Purchasing Agent has the sole responsibility and authority for negotiating and placing contracts, and that competition is intended in the solicitation process.
For any further clarification or information about the specifications or other solicitation documents, prospective Bidders/Offerors are advised to contact the buyer whose name is provided.
