V222--RFQ SHUTTLE SERVICES FOR VA CENTRAL CALIFORNIA HEALTH CARE SYSTEM

Tender description

Question and Answer Section B.2 prices each CLIN per day for a defined number of buses and hours. PWS Section 3 states the Government may increase or decrease shuttle bus counts and "shall only pay for services provided," and the PWS requires invoices to list each vehicle and its hours of operation.

The additional ADA-compliant shuttle that supplements Route C during peak hours is one of the seven peak-period buses under CLINs 0001 and 0002.
