Commercial Driver\'s License Training Services

The District of Columbia Department of For-Hire Vehicles is seeking comprehensive entry-level driver training services to prepare candidates for commercial driver's licenses. The agency requires a qualified provider to deliver both theory and behind-the-wheel instruction that complies with federal training standards. This initiative aims to solve the shortage of qualified commercial drivers by establishing a structured, compliant training pipeline within the Washington, DC metropolitan area. The scope of work covers the delivery of classroom or online theory instruction alongside practical, behind-the-wheel training. The selected provider must supply the complete training curriculum, all instructional materials, and a detailed training schedule. Practical instruction must include public road driving to teach traffic maneuvers and hazard perception. Only organizations based in the United States are eligible to bid on this opportunity. The selected contractor must perform all behind-the-wheel training services onsite within the local area. Bidders must submit their proposals digitally via email or through the designated online portal, including a detailed cost proposal as the agency has not disclosed a pre-determined budget.
