PURPOSE:
A contract addendum totaling $818,090 is required in order to pay Keolis Greensboro, LLC. Services Inc. for providing additional transit services.
BACKGROUND:
At the September 25, 2018 meeting, City Council approved a 3.5 year contract with Keolis for the Management and Operation of Transit Services provided by the Greensboro Transit Agency.
On July 10, 2018, Keolis submitted a “Best and Final Offer” (BAFO) in response to the final RFP. This included a maximum contract amount for each year of the contract. Since the submittal of the BAFO, GTA has made several service enhancements to its Fixed Route services that increased the overall costs.
In addition, demand for the SCAT service continues to increase annually. Keolis’s BAFO relating to Year-2 SCAT trips was based on 263,160 annual passenger trips. Based from the 5-month actual completed passenger trips and projections through June 30, 2020, GTA’s SCAT service is expected to provide 288,365 trips.
Due to these changes, an additional $818,090 is required to be added to Keolis’s Year2 - contract maximum to allow the City to pay transit related expenses through June 30, 2020.
BUDGET IMPACT:
This addendum will increase the FY 2019-2020 contracted transportation budget as follows:
564-4531-02.5423 $692,662
564-4531-03-5423 $125,428
RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUESTED:
The Department of Transportation recommends and requests that the City Council approve the attached resolution authorizing the addendum to the Keolis Greensboro, LLC contract for the Management and Operation of GTA Transit Services in the amount of $818,090.
