Commercial Driver License Training and Testing - Multiple Districts

The Texas Department of Transportation is soliciting services to provide Commercial Driver License (CDL) training and testing exclusively for its employees across five districts: El Paso, Odessa, San Angelo, Childress, and Corpus Christi. The contractor must deliver Class A manual CDL training in full compliance with Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) regulations under 49 CFR Part 380, including both classroom instruction for the Commercial Learner’s Permit and hands-on behind-the-wheel Entry Level Driver Training, culminating in third-party CDL testing. All training must occur at FMCSA-approved sites in Texas, with TxDOT’s Workforce Development team managing enrollment and scheduling to ensure services are limited to state employees only. The contractor is responsible for providing qualified instructors and all necessary equipment, with no government-provided resources beyond coordination and logistics support. The solicitation, identified as 601440000052538, was posted on April 22, 2026, with responses due by May 22, 2026, and all updates, addenda, and documents must be monitored via the TxDOT Procurement Portal on BonfireHub. The contract falls under NAICS code 611692 and is classified as a service-based acquisition with no tangible deliverables or goods, rendering packaging, marking, or shipping requirements inapplicable. There is no stated contract value, pricing structure, or funding code provided, and payment details, including the remittance office or invoicing system, are unspecified, though vendor registration through Euna Procurement and the Centralized Master Bidders List is required. The solicitation does not outline formal evaluation factors, award criteria, or contract type (e.g., FFP or IDIQ), nor does it include clauses on option periods, key personnel, security clearances, or organizational conflict of interest. While compliance with FMCSA standards is mandatory, no specific representations, certifications, or socioeconomic set-asides are required, and no UEI or CAGE codes are explicitly mandated despite implied federal compliance through vendor registration. All proposals must be submitted electronically through the BonfireHub portal by the deadline, with no exceptions accepted after the closing time.
