Description
A public body invites expressions of interest from eligible and qualified bidders for the supply and delivery of buses to be used specifically for the transportation of school children across Jamaica.
Background: The implementation of a National School Transportation System (NSTS) is a
priority programme of the government aimed at ensuring the provision of a safe, efficient and affordable mode of transportation for students across Jamaica. For years the Ministry has been grappling with the issue of getting children to school on time, safely and in an efficient and affordable manner. This has become more poignant with the number of accidents, claiming the lives of or seriously injuring many students, the increase in abuse of students on the mostly unregulated public transportations and their disappearance resulting from the lateness of the time they are out and the source of transportation they are force to utilize. The shortage of adequate transportation has also resulted in overloading of the available transports, extremely long waiting times, and tremendous inconvenience for these students.
The provision of the NSTS will ensure that an adequate number of buses are available to meet the demands of students across Jamaica and, in so doing, enhance the efficiency, reliability, and overall user experience of the school bus transportation system.
The public body now invites eligible suppliers to indicate their interest in providing the
goods. Interested Suppliers should provide information demonstrating that they have the
required authorization, capacity and capability to supply the goods.
