THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
The township is buying a Ford Micro Bird DS-Series 20 passenger bus from Blue Bird / Micro Bird for $125,400 via the Sourcewell cooperative. The vehicle vendor is chosen and this specific purchase is complete. Fleet, transit, and mobility vendors should note that Long Beach is expanding or refreshing small-bus capacity, which may create needs for upfitting, telematics, maintenance contracts, and future vehicle replacements on a similar scale.
Purchased under Sourcewell cooperative, suggesting township preference for cooperative vehicle procurement.

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.
