B) Brief Project Description: Following is a brief description of the current shuttle system at Rocky Mountain National Park along with a narrative detailing some of the Park's desires for the new shuttle services contract. Rocky Mountain National Park through a service contract currently operates a visitor shuttle service along the Bear Lake corridor of the park, along with an express connection to the Town of Estes Park, Colorado. The service encompasses three park routes; the Bear Lake route operates on 10 to 15 minute headways and runs from the shuttle Park & Ride to Bear Lake serving multiple trailheads along the way. The Moraine Park route operates on 30 minute headways and runs from the shuttle Park & Ride to the Fern Lake trailhead. The third route is the Hiker Shuttle that operates on a half hour basis (during peak times) between the Town of Estes Park and the shuttle Park & Ride. The shuttle operates daily from early June through early October with some weekend only service before and after that period. All shuttles are free with paid entry into Rocky Mountain National Park. The shuttle system has average annual boardings of 430,000, with 9,900 service hours, and service miles of about 126,000. Additional information can be found at: http://www.nps.gov/romo/planyourvisit/shuttle_bus_route.htm. The current shuttle system uses a mixture of gasoline powered cut-a-way shuttles and diesel powered low-floor buses. Rocky Mountain National Park would like to make improvements over the current system in three main areas of emphasis while maintaining financial viability of the system: 1) Noise reduction, 2) Increased fuel efficiency, and 3) reduction of emission C) Schedule: All dates are tentative and may change. Issue Request for Proposals April 2012; Proposals due May; Award contract August; Service begins Spring 2013. D) Site Visit: The National Park Service may conduct a pre-proposal site visit; however, an exact date has not yet been determined. Additional information regarding the site visit will be noted in the solicitation. E) Proposed Contract Type: Firm fixed price contract with estimated quantities and unit pricing. F) Proposal Evaluation Criteria / Factors: Award will be made to the Offeror presenting the best value to the Government. Selection will be based on price and non-price factors. The anticipated non-price factors are 1) Prior experience, 2) Project Management & Work Plan, and 3) Past Performance. G) Questions / Contact: John Chaney at john_chaney@nps.gov
