Microtransit, Paratransit and Turnkey Transportation Services
Solicitation # 2026-RFP -3
NEORide, a Council of Governments supporting coordinated public transit across 13 states, is soliciting proposals for Microtransit, Paratransit, and Turnkey Transportation Services under solicitation 2026-RFP-3. The procurement aims to establish a Master Services Agreement (MSA) for a three-year initial term starting in 2027, with two optional one-year renewals. NEORide intends to award the contract to up to two responsive proposers. The scope is divided into two primary components: a SaaS-based Mobility Platform for booking, scheduling, and dispatch, and full Turnkey Services encompassing fleet acquisition, staffing, maintenance, and operational management. All services must comply with ADA paratransit and Federal Transit Administration (FTA) requirements, including 2 CFR 200 and 2 CFR 1201. The contract is structured so that NEORide members purchase services through individual Participation Agreements, and the awarded vendors invoice these member agencies directly. NEORide itself incurs no costs; instead, it is funded by a 1% administrative fee paid by the contractors based on actual project sales. Technical requirements include 99.95% system availability, NIST-aligned cybersecurity standards, and specific integrations with EZfare, GTFS Flex, and EZConnect. Proposals are due by November 20, 2026, and will be evaluated on a 100-point scale consisting of a written technical and pricing proposal and a demonstration phase. Awardees must provide comprehensive insurance coverage, including Workers Compensation and Commercial General Liability, and adhere to strict federal nondiscrimination and labor laws.
