CHECKLIST - Piggyback Checklist.docx

The document is a Piggyback Worksheet for Procurement and Contracts, revised in December 2023. It outlines the process of piggybacking, which involves using an existing contractual document/process to purchase supplies/equipment not originally part of the procurement. The worksheet includes sections on reviewing the original contract, vendor qualifications, contract terms, federal funding considerations, and compliance with regulations such as Buy America requirements and certifications. It also covers the need for written consent from the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) when using certain contracts and ensuring that changes requested are within the scope of the contract. The document emphasizes the importance of following procurement policies, obtaining necessary documentation, and monitoring contract use and performance.
