Summary: In early August, 2009 a Request for Proposal (RFP #1557)) was issued by the District, soliciting proposals for the provision of transportation services for special education students participating in programs at Mt. Diablo Unified School District, Contra Costa County and Non-Public Schools and programs for the 2009-10 school year. Four (4) proposals were submitted, and subsequently reviewed and assessed by District Special Education and Transportation Services staff. Each of the submitting firms was interviewed by the District evaluation team. Based on the evaluative criteria identified in the RFP itself, staff is recommending that a contract be awarded to Pawar Transportation, LLC for $342,900.00 for the provision of special education student supplemental transportation services for the 2009-2010 school year.
Funding: Unrestricted general fund
Fiscal Impact The fiscal impact is $342,900. The present budget is insufficient to accommodate this contract. Therefore, we are requesting that the budget be increased by $142,200. Special Education budget(Program 5411).
Recommendation: Approve contract and increase to budget as recommended.
