3 Priorities of Service

3.1 The SEPTA Customized Community Transportation Department (CCT) is responsible for providing all Paratransit service for the Authority. Our agency is committed to providing high-quality Paratransit service to our passengers.

3.2 Paratransit service is a very complicated mode of public transportation. These priorities

should be considered our guiding principles in our management of the system.

3.2.1 Safety: The most important aspect of our Paratransit service is safety. To achieve this, we place a high emphasis on every aspect of the service that will ensure the safety of all involved. Some examples of the kinds of things that are important to the safety of the service include: Safe driving Well-trained employees Properly maintained vehicles Efficient but responsible vehicle schedules Effective and appropriate customer assistance

3.2.2 ADA Compliance: In addition to safety, SEPTA strives to provide ADA Paratransit

service and Shared Ride Program service that is in full compliance with the federal ADA and PADOT regulations. We place importance on: Providing adequate capacity Providing on-time service Ensuring the full accessibility of our equipment and facilities Providing appropriate and proper passenger assistance Enabling and assisting passengers who use other modes of accessible

SEPTA transit in addition to Paratransit service

3.2.3 Quality service: Passengers aboard SEPTA’s Paratransit service should have a quality riding experience. By this we mean: Vehicles are clean and in sound operating condition Drivers and other staff are professional, well-groomed, polite and courteous The ride is comfortable, climate controlled, and free of excessive noise All rides will be performed on-time at all times

Page 7: REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS - SEPTA

5

3.2.4 Economy: SEPTA is concerned about maintaining an economically efficient

service. This is important not only because of our responsibility to efficiently manage public funds, but also because of the demand for Paratransit service. To achieve this, we will: Ensure vehicle schedules maintain high productivity Manage our fleet and other physical assets efficiently to maximize our use of

all equipment Employ the right people with the right skills to get the job done Manage service delivery proactively throughout the day to maximize the use

of our fleet Ensure that service standards and rules that apply to SEPTA, our Contractors

and our passengers are followed and that everyone is working together to help us to remain efficient

Ensure full fleet availability 3.2.5 Cooperation: We seek a full partnership and a cooperative relationship with all of

our Contractors. To achieve this we are constantly striving for: Regular and open communication Discussion of problems during the early stages, with a focus on solutions

rather than blame Sharing of responsibilities to constantly improve the service

4 Service Background

4.1 Introduction

4.1.1 CCT is responsible for providing Paratransit service transportation to eligible members of the public under two (2) programs--the federally mandated ADA Paratransit service program, for persons with disabilities, and the Pennsylvania Lottery Fund’s Shared-Ride Program, for Philadelphia residents age 65 and older. The Division operates Shared-Ride Program service in Philadelphia County only, but ADA Paratransit service operates within the five (5) county SEPTA service area.

4.2 ADA Paratransit service for persons with disabilities

4.2.1 Guided by the US Dept. of Transportation and US Dept. of Justice regulations 49

CFR Parts 27, 37 and 38 available at http://www.fta.dot.gov/documents/2011-23576.pdf implementing the complementary Paratransit service requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Division provides door-to-door, driver assisted ADA Paratransit service by advance reservation, using ride sharing, to eligible persons with disabilities throughout SEPTA’s five (5) county service area of about 2,200 sq. mi. using passenger vans, sedans, and lift-equipped vans operated by Contract carriers. ADA service whenever possible mirrors fixed route days and hours of operation with six and seven day schedules. SEPTA Tariff 229 governs the provision of ADA Paratransit. A flat fare covers Philadelphia ADA; distance-based fares are used for suburban ADA travel. The ADA is considered civil rights legislation and regulated by the federal government. Familiarity with the federal regulations governing ADA service, strict observation of their provisions, and documentation of all processes and actions taken are therefore required.

4.3 Shared-Ride Program (SRP) Paratransit service for seniors (PHILADELPHIA COUNTY

ONLY. Does not apply to Bucks, Chester, Delaware, & Montgomery Counties).

4.3.1 The Pennsylvania Lottery subsidizes ride-shared Paratransit service transportation to registered riders age 65 and older, under Pennsylvania Act 36 of 1991 www.pacode.com/secure/data/067/chapter425/chap425toc.html, regardless of income or health. As the Philadelphia County Coordinator, SEPTA provides Shared-Ride Program Paratransit service within Philadelphia County only. SRP service operates within the same days and hours as ADA Paratransit service. SEPTA Tariff 146 governs Shared-Ride Program Paratransit service.

4.4 Service areas

4.4.1 SEPTA CCT’s ADA Complementary Paratransit service area encompasses all of Philadelphia County and specified portions of Bucks, Chester, Delaware and Montgomery Counties, some areas of which receive 6-day and other areas, 7-day service. CCT is not empowered to provide service to/from nor collect fares for trips outside service area boundaries. Such trips are ineligible, and Contractors will not be reimbursed for them.

4.4.2 For SEPTA’s registered SRP customers, SEPTA Paratransit service shall be

provided on a ride-shared, advance-reservation basis anywhere within Philadelphia County (including the prescribed three (3) mile buffer area).

4.5 Description of SEPTA’s CCT Paratransit services

4.5.1 Contract carriers within the City of Philadelphia and each suburban county provide SEPTA’s Paratransit service - CCT Connect. Each Contractor is responsible for providing rides to customers, training drivers (other than SEPTA-provided training) and maintaining vehicles.

4.5.2 SEPTA’s CCT Department functions as the administrator of CCT Connect

service, overseeing the suburban and city Contracts. In addition, SEPTA provides centralized passenger certification, driver training, drug and alcohol testing, and directly manages the reservation, scheduling and service monitoring functions of rides. SEPTA also provides vehicles to Contractors for use in the service.

4.5.3 SEPTA’s suburban county Contractors provide ADA service only.

4.5.4 CCT ridership demand in Chester County has been flat; however demand is

projected to grow uniformly at a rate of 1.5% per year for the five (5) years of the contract. SEPTA’s current assigned fleet for Chester County is 9 vehicles.

Additional information on Chester County service indicators and characteristics is provided in Scope of Services (see Attachment 2 of the RFP Copy of the Proposed Agreement).

4.9 Basic Concept of Operations

4.9.1 Call intake, trip scheduling, and dispatching of ADA Paratransit and SRP service are responsibilities of SEPTA, not the Contractor. For the service to be delivered in Chester County, the Contractor is responsible for driver check-in, daily assignment of operators to runs and vehicles, “end-of-shift” check-in, distribution of passenger and SEPTA’s information, collection of paperwork, and reporting. SEPTA dispatchers will take over from the time the vehicles are pulled out of the yard until they are pulled back into the yard. Contract supervisory personnel must be on site to ensure operators check in, know their assignments, and are assigned vehicles. All communications to and from in-service operators will be channeled via the dispatcher unless specifically authorized by SEPTA. SEPTA may require the Contractor to provide appropriate personnel for special service events and other occasional SEPTA service needs. The Contractor is required to maintain an adequate labor force to perform all work assigned. The Contractor is also responsible for the provision of street supervision, driver performance oversight, vehicle maintenance, and accident response/investigation.

4.9.2 Contractor shall assign specific vehicles to blocks of work in accordance with

SEPTA’s instructions for size and type of vehicle each individual piece of work requires. SEPTA will use software to generate schedules that will be finalized and optimized by SEPTA. The Contractor is encouraged to provide ongoing feedback on the optimization process of schedules so that the service provided by the Contractor is productive and effective.

4.10 Scope of Services Offered to Passengers

4.10.1 SEPTA provides door-to-door service for all registered riders. Our service also includes assistance to passenger boarding and disembarking the vehicles, carrying bags or parcels, securing wheelchairs and scooters and assisting riders with fastening seat belts. SEPTA also transports registered service animals free of charge. The details of these requirements are defined in the Scope of Services (Attachment #2 of the RFP Copy of the Proposed Agreement).

4.11 Computerized Reservations & Scheduling

4.11.1 SEPTA’s CCT at its central operations center will take trip reservations for this service. At a minimum, reservations are accepted weekdays from 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and from 7:30 a.m. on weekends and holidays.

Page 12: REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS - SEPTA

10

4.11.2 SEPTA compiles the customer trip requests into vehicle schedules each day.

The schedules are transmitted to the Contractor vehicles wirelessly via the Mobile Android Tablets (MATs) over a cellular data network. The Contractor must perform all work assigned.

4.12 Growth History and Trends

4.12.1 The Scope of Services (Attachment #2 of the RFP Copy of the Proposed Agreement) contains a breakdown of the current service levels and projected growth in the system. Some of the current service characteristics of the work being contracted with this RFP are detailed in the following tables:

8 Performance

8.1 Introduction

8.1.1 One of the most important goals of this Contract is to foster a partnered relationship with the Contract operator in an effort to provide safe, reliable, and efficient service. Because of this, it is vital that SEPTA’s Contractors perform at the required levels identified in this Contract. In this Section, SEPTA presents requirements related to performance and identifies remedies designed to compensate SEPTA if the Contractor fails to perform as required.

Page 16: REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS - SEPTA

14

8.2 Monitoring

8.2.1 SEPTA will monitor the service delivered by the Contractor and related activities in order to assess Contractor performance. This monitoring will include direct observation, on-site visits, administrative audits and reviews, and other efforts that will enable SEPTA to review and evaluate present and past performance. The items SEPTA will monitor will include all aspects of the service required by this RFP.

8.3 Performance Monitoring

8.3.1 As part of the monitoring procedure, SEPTA will conduct random/periodic inspections and field audits of all service and vehicles as part of the overall quality assurance and control program.

8.3.2 SEPTA employs monitors, supervisors, and management personnel to oversee

the operation of transportation service and vehicle conditions and to provide assistance to drivers and passengers. These supervisors shall oversee operations provided under this Contract for compliance with the terms of the Contract. Contractors shall be required to provide SEPTA full access to observe service and equipment.

8.3.3 SEPTA will maintain service monitoring staff and a Control Center where riders

can contact SEPTA for same-day trip information. The Contractor shall maintain a dedicated direct telephone line for SEPTA’s staff to communicate to/from operations management staff on matters relating to immediate service issues. The Contractor’s management staff will provide SEPTA with timely responsiveness.

8.4 Performance Standards

8.4.1 To ensure provision of high-quality service, Contractors will be expected to satisfy high standards of performance. These standards are described below. If a Contractor fails to maintain these standards, SEPTA may impose liquidated damages to rectify the problem.

8.4.2 On-time Performance

The Contractor shall maintain an on-time performance level of 90%, (except during weather emergencies). In doing so it is imperative that drivers initiate their tours as per the time indicated on their manifest display. Any ride, which has been delayed for any reason (except during weather emergencies) beyond the on-time window shall be considered outside of the acceptable range and shall be considered late.

Page 17: REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS - SEPTA

15

8.4.3 Notification

8.4.3.1 Because SEPTA and our Contractors are a team, it is imperative to keep

good lines of communication open. Essential in this effort is prompt notification of SEPTA by the Contractor for certain major events. The Contractor must notify SEPTA immediately if any of the following occur:

8.4.3.1.1 No driver prior to start of tour 8.4.3.1.2 Delays in service outside the on time window as set forth in definitions 8.4.3.1.3 Breakdowns 8.4.3.1.4 Accident/incidents 8.4.3.1.5 Driver removal from service 8.4.3.1.6 Random drug test

8.4.3.2 SEPTA will work with the Contractor to remedy any service problems but,

because quality service is paramount, SEPTA reserves the right to transfer a ride(s) to another Contractor(s), if a tour(s) is in excess of 20 minutes late including delay in departing garage. If this occurs, rides will be appropriately identified and liquidated damages may be assessed to pay for the additional service required to deliver the late trips.

8.4.4 Early Arrival

8.4.4.1 Drivers shall not arrive at a pickup point more than fifteen (15) minutes prior

to the confirmed time identified on driver’s manifest display.

8.4.5 Safety

8.4.5.1 Contractor must maintain a safety record of less than 4 chargeable/preventable accidents and incidents per 100,000 miles.

8.4.6 Adherence to Performance Standards

8.4.6.1 If the Contractor fails to perform as required by this RFP, SEPTA will notify the

Contractor in writing. This notification will contain the details of the performance failure. If, after thirty (30) days, the Contractor does not fully remedy the problems, SEPTA reserves the right to remove some or all of the Contractor’s assigned work without offering the Contractor any financial compensation for this loss. SEPTA may also take other corrective measures, or order the Contractor to take corrective measures, necessary to remedy the problems. These corrective remedies may include SEPTA hiring another firm to perform the service components that the Contractor has failed to perform. If other remedies are employed, the Contractor will be held financially responsible for all costs related to these remedies.

Page 18: REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS - SEPTA

16

8.5 Liquidated Damages Procedures

8.5.1 There may be occasions where the Contractor does not perform as required in this RFP. If performance failures occur, the service is harmed in the eyes of the passengers. Also, performance failures often cost SEPTA additional monies, as SEPTA must take extra effort or employ other measures to fix these deficiencies. For these reasons, SEPTA has included a schedule of liquidated damages that may be applied. Liquidated damages are employed to compensate SEPTA for the real and/or potential costs of various service failures. These are employed to compensate SEPTA for the value of inadequately performed service and/or to recoup wasted financial resources so they can be used to take corrective actions.

8.5.2 If a Contractor violates one of the requirements below, a liquidated damage may be

assessed. If so, the Contractor will receive written notification of the liquidated damage within thirty (30) days of assessment. The Contractor then has ten (10) days to provide written justification for the removal of a liquidated damage assessment. As determined at SEPTA’s sole discretion, if no acceptable removal justification, is received within ten (10) days, the liquidated damage assessment will automatically be applied to the Contractor’s billing invoice.

8.5.3 SEPTA’s management staff, service supervisory staff, and other staff stationed in the SEPTA’s Control Center shall be authorized to identify rides, which may result in liquidated damages being assessed to the Contractor.

8.5.4 Should liquidated damages be assessed, they will be deducted from the

Contractor's invoice thirty days after they occurred. Safety-related infractions will be deducted from the invoice for the month in which they occur.

8.5.5 Assessment of Liquidated Damages for any of the following conditions will not

cause subsequent Liquidated Damages to be assessed:

8.5.5.1 Liquidated damages shall be assessed at the rate of Fifty Dollars ($50.00) per incident as follows:

Vehicle body damage in excess of $250 not repaired within 60 days of the

incident; Vehicle heating or air conditioning failure while in service (in season); Failure by driver to wear a presentable, approved uniform or a SEPTA

8.5.5.6 Extraordinary Performance Failure

8.5.5.6.1 In some cases, SEPTA has experienced an extraordinary failure by a Contractor to perform in certain circumstances. These instances have presented SEPTA with a very difficult and expensive management challenge to rescue the service. If this type of situation occurs, SEPTA may waive the application of itemized liquidated damages and may replace these with a single penalty addressing the entire situation. The cases in which this remedy may be applied are as follows:

8.5.5.6.1.1 A liquidated damage assessment of One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00) per occurrence for:

Unauthorized use of a SEPTA-Contracted vehicle; Failure to submit FTA National Transit Database and Penn DOT

For each vehicle that fails a random Inspection where major defectsare found as defined in Items 17 D and E and Scope of Services(Attachment #2 of the RFP Copy of the Proposed Agreement),liquidated damages shall be assessed. These out-of-service criteriaare extracted from PADOT Vehicle Equipment Inspection andRegulation Requirements 175.80 Vehicle Inspection procedure, asthey pertain to brakes, wheels, tires, chassis, steering and majorsafety defects on wheelchair lifts and securement devices.

For any violation of the US Dept. of Transportation or US Dept. ofJustice ADA regulations (49 CFR Parts 27, 37 and 38).

At SEPTA’s request, Contractor shall give to SEPTA’s Contract Administrator a copy of each such policy, including the declaration page and a certificate thereof at least 15 days before Contractor commences performance under the Agreement. An Event of Default occurs if Contractor fails to carry and maintain the insurance that the Agreement requires.

Cancellation notice requirements must reflect current industry availability (note that contractor’s insurer will have to issue a specific endorsement to provide Notice of Cancellation to SEPTA; however, this is necessary to provide SEPTA the assurance that the coverage remains in place during the term of service). If applicable, Proposer will provide SEPTA with a detailed claims listing (loss run) from their insurance carrier. The claims listing will be for each policy period that Proposer is under Contract. The claims listing will include date the accident was reported; date of the accident, Claimant name, brief description of the accident, paid amounts, reserved amounts, and incurred amounts.

The performance bond must be issued by fully qualified surety company acceptable to SEPTA and listed as a company currently authorized under 31 CFR, Part 223 as possessing a Certificate of Authority as described hereunder.

10 Evaluation and Implementation Criteria

10.1 General

10.1.1 The technical portion of the Proposal is the Contractor’s proposed Scope of Service with explanation of technical approaches and a detailed outline of the proposed program for executing the requirements of the technical scope and achieving the objectives of the Project. The Proposer should demonstrate an awareness of difficulties in the completion of this undertaking, and a plan for surmounting them. The Proposer may comment on any aspect of the RFP, including suggestions on possible alternative approaches to RFP requirements. Any alternative approaches, deviations, enhancements, exceptions, etc. must be itemized in the technical portion of the Proposal. Details concerning same must be clearly presented by an easily recognizable and unique typeface (e.g., bold, larger font italics, etc.) and with a reference to the specific RFP section. Each alternative approach, deviation, etc. will be considered by SEPTA as to possible degree of impact and total effect on the Project. Each Contractor shall carefully examine the documents provided by SEPTA and take such reasonable steps as needed to ascertain the nature of the work, the conditions that affect the work and the cost thereof. Failure to do so will not relieve Contractor from responsibility for estimating the cost of successfully performing the Project work according to SEPTA’s standards.

Page 27: REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS - SEPTA

25

10.1.2 A Technical Committee will evaluate all Proposing firms meeting the minimum

requirements for responsiveness. The first step of the process is evaluation of the written Technical Proposals on the basis of the criteria set forth in Section 10.2. Following the review of the written Technical Proposals, SEPTA may conduct interviews and request and receive additional information as it deems necessary from any Proposer deemed to be responsive to the RFP. If interviews are conducted, Proposers who are deemed to be non-responsive and have no reasonable chance of being selected, will not be interviewed. If interviews are elected by SEPTA, it is essential that all firms be represented by the designated project manager who would ultimately be assigned to this SEPTA contract. After all Proposals have been evaluated in accordance with the criteria set forth in Item 10.2, the Price Proposals will be reviewed and price will be considered in the overall evaluation. If any proposal is determined to be acceptable based on the Technical Evaluation and Price, SEPTA may, without discussion or negotiation, proceed to award the Agreement to that firm. If, however, no Proposal is acceptable without negotiation, those firms whose Proposals are determined to be within the competitive range by SEPTA will be contacted to formally schedule negotiations. Firms in the competitive range are those firms determined by SEPTA to have a reasonable chance of being selected for award based on the technical evaluations and price. The following criteria will be used for the evaluation of Proposals according to SEPTA’s procedures.

10.2 Technical

10.2.1 The following technical areas listed in order of descending importance will be used for evaluation of Technical Proposals according to SEPTA’s procedures and based on the following aspects:

10.2.1.1 Proposer's safety record and current safety programs. 10.2.1.2 Operational Plan - Should identify the corporate approach to providing all

the services identified in the Scope of Service and for achieving the objectives of the Project. This should include, but not be limited to: Staffing Plan, Operations Requirements, Driver Training, Vehicle Maintenance and Control, Safety Programs, Facility Requirements, etc. A site visit of the proposed facility will be required.

10.2.1.3 Implementation/Start-Up/Transition Plan - Should provide a detailed plan of

all start-up tasks. This should include a chronological listing of events. The Proposer shall detail and thoroughly document its knowledge of the issues and problems inherent in a Paratransit service start-up and in a transition between an incumbent Contractor and a new Contractor, and shall thoroughly explain the contingency measures to be implemented by the Contractor in the event problems arise. In lieu of the transition plan the incumbent Contractor should discuss actions to be taken to correct any existing issues or concerns.

10.2.1.4 Experience of Firm - recent and relevant experience in providing

transportation service.

Page 28: REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS - SEPTA

10.2.1.5 System Management - Comprehensive detailed program showing staffing organization, commitment and responsibilities, accompanied by a quality control program describing how Proposer will ensure quality service, effective communication with SEPTA and staff, and timely completion of required reports. Describe Proposer’s staff recruiting and selection processes by job title and provide turnover ratio for each position.

10.2.2 Selection

10.2.2.1 The standards and qualifications that follow have been developed to serve

as indicators of expected performance or compliance with the requirements of the RFP. SEPTA may seek the assistance of external experts and/or consultants during the evaluation process. The adjectival ratings are as follows:

Superior: Exceeds in all or most aspects the minimum requirements

of the RFP. Offers solutions and responses to the Scope of Services that have a high probability of success. Provides cost effective advantages for the program and SEPTA. Response requires no modifications to conform and comply with the critical elements of the RFP.

Very Good: Meets in all aspects and in some cases exceeds the

minimum requirements of the RFP. Offers solutions and responses to the Scope of Services that have a high probability of success. Provides cost effective advantages for the program and SEPTA. No significant weaknesses or deficiencies. Response requires little or no modifications to conform and comply with the critical elements of the RFP.

Acceptable: Meets the minimum requirements of the RFP; Responses

and solutions offer no significant advantages; reasonable probability of success; Weakness and/or deficiencies require some modifications to conform and comply with the critical elements of the RFP.

Marginal: Responses and solutions to the Scope of Services provide

minimum probability of success. Significant weaknesses and deficiencies in the responses and solutions offered. Responses require significant modifications to conform and comply with the requirements of the RFP

Unacceptable: Responses and solutions fail to meet the minimum

requirements of the RFP. Information provided is insufficient to evaluate the response. Major revisions required to cure deficiencies.

These adjectival ratings are only guides to assist SEPTA in evaluating Proposals, and they do not mandate the automatic selection of a particular Proposal.

A BAFO shall be the Proposer’s most favorable price proposal for the technical proposal which has been clarified and agreed upon.

10.5 Award

10.5.1 SEPTA will determine which Proposal is more advantageous taking into consideration the Pricing Proposal and Technical evaluation.

10.5.2 SEPTA will make an award, if any, only to a firm that has been determined by

SEPTA to be fully responsive and responsible to the RFP requirements, while taking into consideration the staff’s evaluation of the Technical Proposals, interviews if conducted, BAFOs, and other relevant factors. A recommendation to SEPTA’s Board of the firm to be awarded the contract that is most advantageous to SEPTA will then be made. The Proposer to whom the Contract is awarded shall be required to enter into a written Contract with SEPTA. This RFP and the Proposal as finally negotiated, or any part thereof, may be incorporated into and made a part of the final Contract.

Page 33: REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS - SEPTA

31

12.2 Prospective proposers must certify that, if awarded a contract to provide Paratransit

services, they will secure all PHI, as defined by the Federal law known as “HIPAA”, and protect its integrity so that such information is used solely to perform the services under this Agreement. Further, all electronic PHI will be maintained in accordance with the HIPAA Security Rule (“Security Rule” shall mean the security standards for the protection of electronic PHI at 45 CFR parts 160, 162 and 164, subparts A and C). In the event there is an unpermitted or unauthorized use or disclosure of any such PHI in the possession or control of the proposer, who becomes the Contractor, Contractor shall notify SEPTA, in writing via email or letter immediately upon discovery.”

12.3 In addition, prospective bidders must stipulate in writing that, upon demand, they will execute a HIPAA Business Associate Agreement with SEPTA if awarded a contract to provide Paratransit services.

Page 34: REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS - SEPTA

32

13.2 Fuel Escalation/De-escalation Provision

13.2.1 The escalation/de-escalation provision will be utilized in the event of a fifteen percent (15%) increase/decrease in fuel, based on the index listed below, which will be evaluated every Fiscal Year (FY) quarter.

13.2.2 The “baseline” price for fuel to be utilized for the duration of the contract

period will be the most current price from the above-referenced index for the week during which the contractor submits its Best and Final Offer (BAFO).

13.2.2.1 If the price of fuel, as indicated by the previously specified index, should

escalate/de-escalate by fifteen percent (15%) or more during one of the FY quarterly evaluation periods, the differential (average) percentage will be computed. The excess percentage over fifteen percent (15%) will be multiplied by the proportionate % amount of fuel cost contained within the total cost breakdown that forms the basis for the contractor’s best and final offer of a revenue rate per hour. The products of that calculation will be reimbursed to the contractor or SEPTA (depending on escalation or de-escalation) based on the number of revenue hours performed for that particular CY quarter period. Charges and/or credits for fuel escalation/de-escalation shall be included by the contractor as a separate line item in the monthly invoice for reconciliation and processing. Any reimbursement is contingent upon the Contractor’s returning fuel receipts to SEPTA within 30 days of the close of each quarter.

Example:

Baseline Fuel Price = $1.86 per gallon Average price (based on the index) for the first ninety (90) day evaluation period = $2.47 (33% escalation)

Rate per revenue hour (includes fuel cost per hour) = $40.00 Rate per revenue hour $40.00 x 5% (Proportionate amount of fuel to total cost in contractor’s proposal) = $2.00

$2.00 x 18% = $.36 per revenue hour In the example cited above $.36 per revenue hour would be reimbursed to the contractor for the number of revenue hours performed during the previous FY quarter period. Updated information is published each Monday at 4:00 PM Eastern Standard Time and may be obtained via telephone by calling 202-586-6966 or www.eia.doe.gov on the Internet.

After  the  drivers  collect  tokens  from  the  customers,  the number of tokens  is counted per tour and recorded on the Fare  Reconciliation  Report  along  with  the  drivers’  name, tour number, date and day.   

Once  counted,  money  collected  with  the  token,  and  any zone charges, should be reported in the cash column of the Fare Reconciliation Report. 

Tokens,  along  with  the  Fare  Reconciliation  Report,  are submitted  for  verification  from  an  authorized  carrier representative. 

All fares, including tokens, are to be verified in a secure area dedicated to this purpose. 

 II. Submission of Tokens 

 

SEPTA provides to the carrier, a form, entitled Submission of SEPTA  Paratransit  Tokens  Collected  in  Payment  of  Fare along with, a bundle of clear plastic “SAF‐T‐PAK” pouches to transport tokens. 

   

Page 123: REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS - SEPTA

110

 

“SAF‐T‐PAK” pouches can be physically obtained from:  

SEPTA CCT‐4th Floor 

1234 Market Street Philadelphia, PA 19107 

 

Tokens  are  recorded  daily  on  the  Submission  of  SEPTA Paratransit Tokens Collected in Payment of Fare form and kept in a secured location i.e., safe. 

Included on the form is the “SAF‐T‐PAK” number (located in the  upper  right  corner),  carriers’  name  and  address, quantity of tokens, date, total tokens reported, authorized carrier representative signature, and date of verification. 

Each  form  is  designed  to  calculate  a  weekly  amount  of tokens, beginning with the first day of the billing month. 

  Please note tokens must be separated by billing period.  

After tokens are verified, record on the “SAF‐T‐PAK” pouch the  following  information,  “from  and  to”, date  and dollar amount. 

Tokens  along  with  the  Submission  of  SEPTA  Paratransit Tokens  Collected  in  Payment  of  Fare  form  (“SAF‐T‐PAK” number must be  included on  the upper  left corner of  the form) are placed inside the pouch and then sealed. 

The  tear  strip  (located  across  the  top  of  the  “SAF‐T‐PAK” pouch)  with  date,  dollar  amount  and  signature  of authorized  carrier  representative,  is  removed  from  the perforation and kept for carriers’ records. 

   

Page 124: REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS - SEPTA

111

 Remember tokens must be counted for each billing month and then,  physically  delivered  to  SEPTA’s  Revenue  Collection Department the Wednesday following the prior Sunday through Saturday workweek to:  

SEPTA Revenue Collection 

200 West Wyoming Avenue Philadelphia, PA 19140 

Hours: 8:00 am – 12:00 pm Monday through Friday 

 All  carrier  token  deliveries  are  subject  to  count  by  SEPTA’s Revenue Collection Personnel.  Any variance in the token count will be resolved by using SEPTA’s count of the tokens. 

 iii. Trailpasses 

All  contractors  will  receive  credit  for  customer  usage  of Trailpasses when noted  in the Route Match verification screen.  Note that Trailpass usage is limited to ADA customers only.    Finance can  invalidate and  remove Trailpass  transactions  listed in  Route Match when  there  is  evidence  the  Trailpass  number written on the manifest display or in the system is not valid or if there is suspicious activity with the use of the Trailpass.   If valid Trailpass numbers are on the manifest display but not in the  Route Match  system,  Contractors  can  request  credit  from SEPTA by submitting a  list of these discrepancies to  include the date, tour, customer and time along with a copy of the manifest.  All contractors will receive a Trailpass Report by day and tour to be used in the reconciliation of fares.    

   

Page 125: REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS - SEPTA

112

 Trailpass  reconciliation  is  an  on‐going  day‐  to‐day  process.    It requires  that  SEPTA  and  the  Contractor  work  independently using system and manifest display data to verify Trailpass usage by person, trip, tour and date.   Differences between SEPTA and contractor  accounting  of  Trailpass  usage  are  subject  to  daily reconciliation or dispute, if necessary.  Successful  implementation  of  this  policy  demands  a commitment by SEPTA and the contractor to enforce all policies for  the handling of  trail passes by drivers  (see attached Driver Training  ‐ Handling of Trail passes) as well as  independent trail pass validation and accounting.

PERFORMANCE BOND "SAMPLE" Know all men and women (or persons) by these presents, that as principal (hereinafter called the Contractor) and as Surety (hereinafter called the Surety) are held and firmly bound unto SOUTHEASTERN PENNSYLVANIA TRANSPORTATION AUTHORITY, 1234 MARKET STREET, PHILADELPHIA, PA 19107-3780, as Obligee (hereinafter called SEPTA) in the amount of dollars ($ ), for the payment whereof the said Contractor and Surety bind themselves, and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, jointly and severally, firmly by these presents. WHEREAS, the Contractor has by written agreement dated entered into a contract with SEPTA for which contract is hereby referred to and made a part hereof, and is hereinafter referred to as the Contract. NOW, THEREFORE, the condition of this obligation is such, that if the Contractor shall fully indemnify SEPTA against any loss or damage directly suffered through the failure of the Contractor to faithfully perform said contract, at the time(s), and in the manner therein specified, then this obligation shall be void; otherwise it shall remain in full force and effect. Provided however, whenever Contractor shall be, and declared by SEPTA to be in default under the Contract, the Surety may promptly remedy the default, or shall promptly; 1. Complete the Contract in accordance with its terms and conditions, or 2. Obtain a bid or bids for completing the Contract in accordance with its terms and conditions,

and upon determination by Surety of the lowest responsible Proposer, or, if SEPTA elects, upon determination by SEPTA and/or the Surety of the lowest responsible Proposer, arrange for a contract between such Proposer and SEPTA, and make available as work progresses and continue to make available (even though there should be a default or a succession of defaults under the contract or contracts of completion arranged under this paragraph) sufficient funds to pay the cost of completion less the balance of the contract price; but not exceeding, including other costs and damages for which the Surety may be liable hereunder, the amount set forth in the first paragraph hereof. The term "balance of the contract price," as used in this paragraph, shall mean the total amount payable by SEPTA to Contractor under the Contract and any amendments or other entitlements thereto, less the amount properly paid by SEPTA to Contractor.

AND PROVIDED FURTHER, that no action, suit or proceeding be instituted on this bond after the expiration of two (2) years from the date on which final payment under the Contract falls due. Signed, Sealed and Dated this day of , 20 .

Page 150: REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS - SEPTA

137 NAECFTEC 1116

Fuel Tax receipts are ONLY based on a calendar year. Each quarter must be separated(First quarter includes January – March; second quarter includes April – June; thirdquarter includes July – September; and fourth quarter includes October – December).Only those fuel receipts that correspond with each month may be entered into that month(i.e. May receipts for May, June receipts for June).

If your firm uses a credit card, all transactions before and after that corresponding monthmust be removed and entered into the correct month. All transactions for the prior yearand all transactions for the beginning of a new calendar year must be removed.

For example, if a firm is entering receipts for the calendar year 2018, and is using a credit card for fuel purchases, and purchases fuel in December of 2017 and January of 2018, and the credit card cut-off date is January 15, 2018, all transactions prior to January 1, 2018 must be removed. Only those transactions for January 2018 can be entered into form. When the final credit card statement comes in for the end of the 2018 calendar year and the cut off is January 15, 2019, all transactions after Dec. 31, 2018 must be removed (those will be entered into the next year’s fuel tax).

Reconciliation of fuel receipts must be completed for each fuel vendor. For example, ifboth ABC Resources and XYZ Resources are supplying the same paratransit companyfuel for the same contract, a reconciliation of the fuel receipts report must be completedfor ABC Resources and one fuel receipts must be completed for XYZ Resources.

1.1 This section describes the policies and procedures governing the receipt

Bid/proposal protests for procurements of less than $100,000 shall be informally handled by the Assistant General Manager of Procurement, Supply Chain & DBE of Procurement or his/her designee.

2.0 DEFINITIONS

2.1 "Interested Party" means any bidders/proposers. 2.2 "days" means business days.

2.3 “Filed” means the date of receipt by The Office of SEPTA’s Assistant

General Manager of Procurement, Supply Chain & DBE of Procurement or his/her designee (hereinafter Assistant General Manager of Procurement, Supply Chain & DBE of Procurement).

2.4 “Federal/State Law or Regulation” means any valid requirement imposed by Federal, State, or other Statute or regulation.

2.5 “Presumptive Contractor” means the bidder/proposer that is in line for award of the contract in the event that the protest is denied.

2.6 “Protestant” is an Interested Party who is aggrieved in connection with the solicitation or award of a contract and who files a protest.

3.0 TYPES OF PROTESTS/ TIME LIMITS

3.1 Pre-Bid/Proposal Protest is based upon alleged restrictive specifications or alleged improprieties in SEPTA’s procurement process. A Protestant must file a pre-bid/proposal protest no later than five (5) days prior to bid opening date by 4:30 p.m. Philadelphia prevailing time.

3.2 Pre-Award Protest is based upon alleged improprieties of a Bid/Proposal. A Protestant must file a pre-award protest no later than five (5) days after the Protestant knows or should have known of the facts giving rise thereto by 4:30 p.m. Philadelphia prevailing time.

141 NAECFTEC 1116

3.3 Post-Award Protest is based upon the award of a contract. A Protestant

must file a post-award protest no later than five (5) days after the notification to the unsuccessful firms of SEPTA’s intent to award, or no later than five (5) days after an unsuccessful firm becomes aware of SEPTA’s intent to award a contract, whichever comes first, by 4:30 p.m. Philadelphia prevailing time.

4.0 CONTENTS OF PROTEST

4.1 Protests must be in writing, and filed directly with the Office of SEPTA’s Assistant General Manager of Procurement, Supply Chain & DBE of Procurement, at the address indicated in the solicitation, and must contain the following information: a. The name, address and telephone number of the Protestant; and b. Identity of the IFB or RFP (by number and description); and c. A detailed factual statement of the grounds for protest; and d. The desired relief, action or ruling. \

5.0 ACTION BY SEPTA

5.1 Procurement Process Status Upon timely receipt of a protest, SEPTA will delay the opening of bids until after resolution of the protest for protests filed prior to the bid opening, or withhold award until after resolution of the protest for protests filed after bid opening. However, SEPTA may open bids or award a contract whenever SEPTA, at its sole discretion, determines that:

a. The items or work to be procured are urgently required; or b. Delivery or performance will be unduly delayed by failure to make

the award promptly; or c. Failure to make prompt award will otherwise cause undue harm to

SEPTA or a funding source. If the protest is filed before the award of the contract, SEPTA will

advise the Presumptive Contractor of the pending protest.

5.2 If deemed appropriate, SEPTA may conduct an informal conference on the merits of the protest with all Interested Parties invited to attend.

Page 155: REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS - SEPTA

142 NAECFTEC 1116

5.3 Response to the Protest

SEPTA’s Assistant General Manager of Procurement, Supply Chain & DBE of Procurement will respond in detail to each substantive issue raised in the protest within a reasonable time after the protest is filed. SEPTA’s response shall address only the issues raised originally by the Protestant. When, on its face a protest does not state a valid basis for protest or is untimely, the Assistant General Manager of Procurement, Supply Chain & DBE of Procurement may summarily dismiss the protest without requiring a detailed response.

5.4 Rebuttal to SEPTA Response

The Protestant may submit a written rebuttal to SEPTA’s response, addressed to the Assistant General Manager of Procurement, Supply Chain & DBE of Procurement, but must do so within five (5) days after receipt of the original SEPTA response. SEPTA will not address new issues raised in the rebuttal. After receipt of the Protestant’s rebuttal, the Assistant General Manager of Procurement, Supply Chain & DBE of Procurement will review the protest and notify the Protestant of his/her final decision.

5.5 Request for Additional Information Failure of the Protestant to comply with a request for information as specified by SEPTA’s Assistant General Manager of Procurement, Supply Chain & DBE of Procurement, may result in determination of the protest without consideration of the additional information if subsequently produced. If any Interested Party requests information from another Interested Party, the request shall be made to SEPTA’s Assistant General Manager of Procurement, Supply Chain & DBE of Procurement, and, if SEPTA so directs, shall be complied with by the other party within five (5) days.

5.6 Request for Reconsideration If data becomes available that was not previously known, or there has been an error of law, a Protestant may submit a request for reconsideration of the protest. SEPTA’s Assistant General Manager of Procurement, Supply Chain & DBE of Procurement will again review the protest considering all currently available information. The Assistant General Manager of Procurement, Supply Chain & DBE of Procurement’s determination will be made within a reasonable period of time, and his/her decision will be considered final.

Page 156: REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS - SEPTA

143 NAECFTEC 1116

5.7 Decision

Upon review and consideration of all relevant information the determination as issued by SEPTA will be final.

6.0 CONFIDENTIALITY OF PROTEST

Material submitted by a Protestant will not be withheld from any Interested Party, except to the extent that the withholding of information is permitted or required by law or regulation. If the Protestant considers that the protest contains proprietary material which should be withheld, a statement advising of this fact must be affixed to the front page of the protest submission and the allegedly protected information must be so identified whenever it appears.

7.0 FEDERAL TRANSIT ADMINISTRATION (FTA) INVOLVEMENT

Where procurements are funded by the FTA within five (5) business days from receipt of SEPTA’s final decision, the Protestant may file a protest with the FTA only where the protest alleges that SEPTA failed to have or failed to adhere to its protest procedures or there was a violation of Federal Law or Regulation. Any protest to the FTA must be filed in accordance with FTA Circular 4220.1F.
