University of Illinois Springfield on behalf of Intercollegiate Athletics (?University?) is seeking proposals from prospective partners interested in providing safe and reliable charter coach services for transporting teams, related staff and official travel parties to and from competitions away from the UIS campus as well as local transportation at the competition site. University travel generally takes place in the Midwest. National travel elsewhere may occur less frequently. These trips may originate in Springfield for round trip service and local transportation, originate at the competition site for local and return leg to Springfield or to local transportation at the competition site. Each athletic team has its own schedule of events, and there can be a great deal of overlap between seasons of different sports. Transportation may be required for several teams to different locations in the same day or weekend, and the University seeks a vendor to satisfy all the athletic transportation needs throughout a given academic year. The initial term of the contract will be from date of execution through June 30, 2024 with the potential for renewal of one (1) three-year term and one (1) two-year term.
