Title

Award of Agreement for the Purchase of Heavy-Duty Buses for iShuttle Service

 

Overview

On April 8, 2019, the Orange County Transportation Authority Board of Directors approved the release of a request for quotes for the purchase of 12, 30 to 32-foot compressed natural gas-powered heavy-duty buses to support iShuttle service in the City of Irvine. As a result, quotes from qualified vendors under the California Association for Coordinated Transportation/Morongo Basin Transit Authority Purchasing Cooperative have been evaluated, and approval is requested to award an agreement for the purchase of these buses.

 

Recommendation(s)

Authorize the Chief Executive Officer to negotiate and execute Purchase Order No. C-9-1001 between the Orange County Transportation Authority and Gillig LLC, in the amount of $6,756,221, for the purchase of 12, 30-foot heavy-duty compressed natural gas-powered buses, with an option to purchase five additional buses, for iShuttle service.
