Standard Bus Procurement Guidelines
C. Fines
If the Procuring Agency is being fined or can be expected to be imposed for failure to
meet court mandated emission standards or requirements of AMERICANS WITH
DISABILITIES ACT, and early delivery reduces any such fines savings will accrue. This
element should be included only if the Procuring Agency can prove its vulnerability for
such fines and a purpose of the procurement is to comply with such laws or ordinances.
D. Fuel Consumption
If the new buses are expected to consume less fuel per passenger capacity, then the
difference in fuel consumption costs per day may be included as a savings if the old fleet
can in fact be replaced by the early delivered fleet.
