As needed, YCIPTA solicits proposals for goods, inventory items, consultant and professional services, and public works construction projects.


We follow appropriate policies and regulations and actively encourages qualified small and minority-owned businesses to participate. Most purchasing is subject to Federal Transit Administration (FTA) regulations. These procurement regulations, as well as many other rules, are contained in the current version of the FTA Master Agreement for Grantees that can be viewed at here. The FTA also publishes a Circular (FTA C 4220.1F) that summarizes only the procurement rules contained in the Master Agreement. All proposals and/or bid documents are due per the instructions inside the procurement documents.
