Description

YES Prep Public Schools is seeking a qualified contractor to provide comprehensive K‑12 student transportation services throughout the Houston area. The contract will initially run for one year with the possibility of up to four additional one‑year extensions (maximum five‑year term). Services include daily bus routes, special‑population transportation (special education, McKinney‑Vento), field‑trip and event transportation, and associated staffing, fleet management, routing software, and performance reporting. The contractor must supply 71‑passenger Type C buses (preferably Thomas C2), maintain a minimum 15 % substitute driver pool and 10 % substitute monitor pool, provide two‑way radios, GPS, cameras, and a routing software platform, and meet on‑time‑performance and safety standards set by YES Prep. Pricing must accommodate fluctuating service levels with no guaranteed minimum volume. Proposals are due electronically (or sealed hard copy) by 10 AM CT on 29 Oct 2026; a optional pre‑bid meeting is held on 22 Oct 2026.

Budget estimate

$5,000,000 – $15,000,000

The RFP does not disclose a contract value. Based on typical Houston‑area school bus contracts—considering a fleet of roughly 50–80 buses, driver wages, fuel, maintenance, technology, and administrative overhead—the annual contract could range from $5 million for a minimal service level up to $15 million for a full‑service, multi‑year arrangement with extensive special‑population and field‑trip support. Factors influencing the final amount include the number of routes, mileage, special‑equipment buses, and the extent of field‑trip services.
