Summary: Presented by: Mr. Erick Hofstetter, Chief Operating Officer, Division of Operations
Request: It is requested that the Board of Education ratify and approve the contract extension for RFP 20-472, Charter Bus Services to Allstate Tours, American Coach Lines, Coast to Coast Tours, LLC, Friendship Tours, LLC, Harmon Brothers, Kelly Tours, Inc., Kingsmen Coach Lines, R&W Motorcoach, Inc., Samson Tours, Inc., Southeastern Stages, Inc., and We Care Charters for one additional year through December 31, 2024. This recommendation is for the fourth (4th) of four (4) one-year contract renewal options.
Why: An extension of this bid will allow the District to provide services that require travel outside the 75-mile radius limitation of the DCSD Transportation Department for student activities.
Details: DCSD requested proposals from qualified commercial carriers to provide charter bus services as needed. On October 7, 2019, the Board of Education approved A National Limousine Services, American Coach Lines, Atlantic Transportation & Coaches, Coast to Coast Tours, LLC, Allstate Tours, LLC dba Elite Tours of Atlanta, Friendship Tours, LLC, Georgia Coach Lines, Inc., Harmon Brothers Charter Service, Inc., Kelly Tours, Inc., Kingsmen Coach Lines, R & W Motor Coach, Samson Tours, Inc., and Southeastern Stages, Inc., and We Care Charters as the most responsive and responsible firms to provide charter bus services on an as-needed basis. On December 9, 2019, the Board of Education approved adding We Care Charters to the previously approved list after determining that their vehicles passed the on-site inspection. With the exception of A National Limousine Services, Atlantic Transportation & Coaches, and Georgia Coach Lines, Inc., all the above vendors are being recommended for their contract renewal option.
Financial impact: These services are paid for by the local school or department utilizing the service and will be paid for from multiple charge codes.
