UCLA/Westwood Zero Emission Transit Service—Bus & Coach Procurement

The University of California, Los Angeles is procuring eight zero-emission buses—seven transit buses and one coach—to replace an equivalent number of existing fossil-fueled vehicles in its campus transit fleet. The new buses will be deployed at the UCLA Transit Operations and Maintenance Yard located at 11075 Kinross Avenue in Los Angeles and will be equipped with Level 3 wireless charging capabilities to support efficient, grid-connected recharging without the need for overhead or plug-in infrastructure. No physical modifications to the campus environment or expansion of transit services are anticipated, and the project has been administratively exempted under the California Environmental Quality Act due to its alignment with public transit enhancement and environmental goals. The procurement is classified as a forecast notice with no formal solicitation number, contract value, or line-item pricing disclosed. Delivery is expected to occur at the UCLA maintenance yard, though specific delivery timelines, FOB terms, and inspection protocols are not outlined. The sole point of contact provided is Ashley Rogers, Director of Environmental Planning, who serves as the lead agency representative, though no official Contracting Officer, COR, or COTR is named. No FAR clauses, evaluation factors, offeror certifications, pricing data, or special contract requirements are specified in the documentation, and the transaction is treated as a straightforward equipment acquisition with environmental compliance as its primary regulatory framework.
