Description

The San Diego Unified School District is seeking a supplier to provide fifty (50) new electric conventional school buses, each no longer than 32 feet, with both ambulatory and wheelchair‑accessible configurations. The buses must meet detailed chassis, body, safety, and electronic specifications, include a minimum 134‑mile electric range, Level‑2 SAE J1772 charging capability, telemetry, and a suite of optional equipment such as public‑address systems and surveillance cameras. The contract requires a 540‑day delivery window, a five‑year chassis/body warranty (with additional component warranties), provision of spare parts, and on‑site training for district maintenance staff. The award will go to the lowest responsive bidder, and all bids must be submitted electronically via PlanetBids.

Budget estimate

$10,000,000 – $20,000,000

While the solicitation does not disclose a total contract value, electric school buses typically range from $150,000 to $350,000 each. For 50 buses, the total spend is likely between $7.5 million and $17.5 million. Accounting for optional equipment, training, spare parts, and warranty support, a reasonable estimate for the award’s value falls in the $10 million to $20 million range.
