A BPA is an Agreement, not a contract, and neither party is bound by its terms and conditions. The Government is not obligated to purchase any definite amount under this BPA. If a need arises, an authorized representative of the Government may issue an order following the procedures outlined in the BPA.

If you are interested in participating in this solicitation, follow the instructions in Section 3 of the solicitation, complete the required portions of the attached document, and submit your proposal electronically to [email protected] making reference to "Quotation Enclosed – Private Transp...

How to bid on this

This is a contract solicitation, not a grant. To bid, you submit a proposal (usually a price and a description of how you would do the work) directly to the government, through the channel the official listing specifies, not through Oppward.

Make sure your business has an active SAM.gov registration. You cannot be paid on a federal contract without one.

Check the set-aside listed above and confirm your business actually qualifies for it before you spend time on a proposal. See our guide to set-asides if the category is unfamiliar.
Submit your proposal by the deadline, using the exact submission method the official listing states. A technically on-time bid sent the wrong way is often treated as late.
