Background:
In June 2014, ARB approved the FY 2014-15 Funding Plan for the
AQIP and Low Carbon Transportation GGRF Investments, providing up
to $25 million for Heavy-Duty Pilot Projects, and up to $50
million for Advanced Technology Freight Demonstration Projects.
ARB will release the following 3 grant proposal solicitations for
Heavy-Duty Pilot Projects and Advanced Technology Freight
Demonstration Projects; Zero-Emission Truck and Bus Pilot
Projects in Disadvantaged Communities, Zero-Emission Drayage
Trucks, and Multi-Source Facility Projects.

The scope of work for this contract will cover data monitoring,
collection, and analysis of the projects in the categories
described above funded under the grant from FY14/15. The scope
of work will require the contractor to collect and monitor
vehicle and facility data, if applicable, such as
vehicle/equipment specification, performance, operating and
maintenance (O&M) data for vehicles and facilities, and capital
and O&M costs for vehicles and facilities. In addition to data
collection and monitoring, the contractor is required to analyze
the data, to compare the data of the advanced technology vehicles
with the data of baseline vehicles, and to make recommendations
and projections on technology readiness for commercialization.
This is an open, competitive bidding process.
