CONTRACT RENEWAL (Equipment)

ITEM: 4-E-OPT

MARYLAND TRANSIT ADMINISTRATION

ORIGINAL CONTRACT ID: T-8000-0230

Small Paratransit & Non-Paratransit Buses for Locally Owned Transit Systems

ADPICS NO. CO255464

ORIGINAL CONTRACT APPROVED: Item 19-E, MDOT Agenda 3/12/08

ORIGINAL PROCUREMENT METHOD: Competitive Sealed Bidding

CONTRACTOR: Coach and Equipment Bus Sales

Baltimore, MD

MODIFICATION: This modification provides for exercise of the renewal option clause, with Producer Price Index (PPI) adjustments pursuant to the terms contained in the original contract, for an additional one (1) year period. The estimated orders for buses of various sizes and options total 70 for the renewal period. The contract term for the renewal option provides for two (2) additional renewal periods with Producer Price Index price adjustments on the anniversary of each renewal period.

TERM: 4/1/08– 3/31/09 (Original)

4/1/10-3/31/11 (Renewal Option)

AMOUNT: $3,589,079.00

ORIGINAL AMOUNT: $8,507,700.00

REVISED AMOUNT: $21,901,500.12

PERCENTAGE INCREASE: 19.7% (Renewal Option)

160% (Overall)

DBE PARTICIPATION: 0%

RENEWAL DBE PARTICIPATION: 0%

REMARKS: The current Contractor provides small paratransit and non-paratransit configured buses to locally operated transit systems and non-profit entities. The pricing for the contract renewal term is based on the Producer Price Index (PPI) for bus bodies as published by the U.S. Department of Labor with a 5% cap on cost increases for containment purposes and manufacturer invoiced increases on

ITEM: 4-E-OPT (Continued) BPW – 03/24/10

chassis costs pursuant to the original contract terms. The current PPI comparisons revealed a decrease of .9% for the 2010 renewal year. The average decrease resulting from the PPI was $118.83 per vehicle when the 2010 chassis change over price adjustment was factored into the total cost of each unit. This actual realized savings coupled with the administrative cost associated with contract solicitation provides the basis for the decision to renew this contract rather than preparing a new solicitation. Additional research was initiated to ascertain contract comparison with several other jurisdictions whereby it was determined that similarly outfitted units on the North Carolina contract averaged 4% higher than the current MTA price schedules and bid prices received in Minnesota in 2009 revealed a pricing structure that averaged 1.5% to 3.5% higher than the current MTA unit pricing.

The current vendor’s performance has enabled the contract orders to be handled expeditiously with equipment inspections and unit deliveries completed ahead of the contracted timelines.
