- Summary:
-
Designed to help school administrators improve the efficiency of pupil transportation programs and control costs, this guide provides detailed guidance on how to collect and analyze costs, assess the effects of service levels and policies, and develop and administer a pupil transportation contract. Following an introductory chapter, part I consists of four chapters devoted to identifying and analyzing costs. Specifically, chapters discuss cost categories, cost allocation principles, the characteristics of pupil transportation services affecting quality and cost of service, and performance measures to improve program quality. The three chapters of part II identify and review service options, examine alternative service delivery systems, and describe the effects of changing provision systems and ways to compare various service options. Part III, containing detailed examples of documents used in the procurement process for securing contractors, provides a sample request for bid/proposal, describes the contract award process and evaluation procedures, and includes the text of a model contract agreement. Appendices list project advisory committee members and local education agencies visited and provide forms and guidance for depreciating capital assets, understanding supplementary and alternative contract terms, and performing cost allocations. Several exhibits relevant to California's pupil transportation program are displayed throughout the document. (MLH)
