Chartered Buses and Fleet Services

The government authority located in Newark, NJ is seeking chartered buses and fleet services to facilitate travel within the Tri-State Area. The agency requires a centralized management system to handle fleet operations, including maintenance, staffing, and comprehensive liability and automotive insurance.

The scope of work covers on-demand booking, multi-day services, and routine shuttle routes operating on daily, weekly, or monthly schedules through tailored contracts. The agency requires the implementation of booking systems, traveler tracking, automated reporting, and procedures for handling last-minute requests, driver shortages, and emergency equipment failures with twenty-four-seven availability. The performance of the work will occur offsite at the provider's office location. Eligible bidders must be onshore organizations based solely in the United States. Bidders must submit references from similar clients that demonstrate experience managing unpredictable travel demands.
