Charter Bus and Motor Coach Transportation Services

The buyer needs charter bus and motor coach transportation services to furnish vehicles, drivers, and dispatch support on an as-needed basis for Texas campuses and departments. The requested scope includes providing transportation for field trips, athletic travel, academic competitions, staff travel, and graduation activities, as well as supplying prompt replacement vehicles during breakdowns. Eligible respondents must be onshore US organizations capable of meeting all mandatory solicitation requirements and FMCSA safety standards. Proposals must include required forms, complete pricing on Attachment K, a SAFER Company Snapshot, and a signed Master Charter Bus Agreement. A pre-proposal meeting takes place on October 21, 2026, and all questions are due by October 22, 2026. Evaluation criteria focus on the most advantageous negotiated proposals rather than strictly the lowest price. Contract term details are unspecified, and the buyer requests pricing proposals covering all applicable rates and fees.
