MA H3976

School bus owners must submit to the registrar all successful bids, unsuccessful bids from the previous year, and winning bids from competitions they lost, along with a sworn affidavit attesting to accuracy

Failure to provide the required bidding information results in automatic inspection failure for the school transportation vehicle

Vehicles fail inspection if the company's unsuccessful bids were more than 2% below the winning bid

Companies that win only 1 school bus contract per year for 5 consecutive years will have their vehicles fail inspection
