The award will be made in the best interest of MaineDOT, as determined by the Department. The result of this bid process may be multiple Master Agreement Contract(s). Awards may be made to vendor(s) who meet the minimum specifications. In the event that no Bidder submission conforms to the specifications of this RFQ, then the Division may choose not to make any award. Alternatively, the Division may make an award to the Best Value Bidder whose specifications most closely meet the specifications of this RFQ and the cost will be factored based on that bid. 1.10 Master Agreement Contract Evaluation: After the bid is awarded, the awarded vendor(s) will receive an initial order. There will not be a guaranteed number of units ordered from each vendor. The Department will be monitoring the new equipment and gathering data for an evaluation process that will be used to determine which vendor/manufacturer(s) is the best fit for MaineDOT’s operation. The Department’s evaluation results will determine additional/future orders. Low Floor Cutaway Accessible Buses will be evaluated based on, but not limited to the following key requirements: a) Delivery time b) Product performance - quality c) Customer service through the buying process d) Customer service during maintenance e) Quality of repair service – product and installation f) Warranty support g) Technology support h) Overall cost of unit operation Low Floor Cutaway Accessible Buses that do not perform to the satisfaction of the Department will not receive additional orders until the vendor corrects the issues of concern. The evaluation process will not exceed a two-year time period.

These prices shall remain firm/fixed for any purchase orders issued by the Department within a two (2) year period from contract award. The price of any buses ordered by the Department after the initial two (2) year firm/fixed price period shall be calculated as follows: The quoted Base Order Price increased by the difference in the PPI percentage at the contract award date and the last published PPI percentage six months prior to the date of the order. Provisional index percentages are subject to revision and shall not be used for this calculation. The calculation utilizes the U.S. Department of Labor/Bureau Of Labor Statistics Producer Price Index (“PPI”) Category 1413, “Trucks and Bus Bodies”. The price for any purchase order shall not result in a Base Order Price increase of more than 6% per year over the remaining three (3) years of the five (5) year contract. In the event the PPI Percentage calculation price is less than the PPI Percentage used for the previous order, the last price utilized will remain in effect. At no time will the calculated PPI Percentage price fall below the previous order price. CONTRACT PERIOD: 5 years from the date of the award. PRICES: Base Prices are expected to remain firm for the 60-month contract period. Simple Percentage Method. One method of price adjustment is to have the base price changed by the same percentage as the percent change in a selected PPI. To illustrate, suppose that a contract escalation clause called for using the intermediate demand PPI titled Materials and components for manufacturing, not seasonally adjusted. Also suppose that the value of this index was 178.4 for December 2010, the month that corresponds with the base price for escalation, $1,000 per unit. Twelve months later, when December 2011 data were released and the first stipulated price adjustment was to be made, the index value for December 2011, published mid-January 2012, was 187.7. The percent change represents an increase of 5.2 percent in the index for Materials and components for manufacturing and a $52 per unit increase in the price for the escalated product. (See below.) Index at time of calculation, December 2011: .............................. 187.7 Divided by index at time base price was set, December 2010: ..... 178.4 Equals ............................................................................................ 1.052 Base price ..................................................................................... $1,000 Multiplied by .................................................................................. 1.052 Equals adjusted price .................................................................... $1,052 All future releases, including the equipment modification(s), will be priced based upon the new revised Base Award Price. Note: This is an example only to indicate how the PPI Calculated Pricing will be determined for Option Year Orders.
