The School District of Philadelphia's (District) Department of Transportation Services is seeking approval to utilize the City of Philadelphia's competitively bid contract with Mansfield Oil Company for ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel. This authorization, which is requested and approved by the Board of Education each year, allows Transportation Services to take advantage of cooperative purchasing that brings lower rates by aggregating the need and economies of scale. The availability of fuel at District garages is an essential requirement for school buses. Consistent with prior authorizations, Transportation Services is requesting $1,500,000 for diesel fuel for FY24.
This contract directly supports the Board of Education's Guardrail 1. The success of this contract has been measured by Mansfield Oil Company’s ability to ensure that the District garage fuel sites have an ongoing supply of diesel fuel.
