From the meeting

At its October 20, 2026 meeting, the Board of School Trustees adopted the School Bus Replacement Plan for 2027 through 2031 and will submit it to the Department of Local Government Finance. The plan lists owned buses by model year and shows replacement costs ranging from $190,000 to $275,300 per bus, with total replacement costs of $1,278,600 in 2027 and $1,376,500 in 2031. This is a clear fleet planning signal for bus OEMs, dealers, and maintenance providers tied to the district's replacement cycle.

Questions about this project

What is a pre-RFP?

A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.

When will Hammond School City issue an RFP for this project?

Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Hammond School City's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
