3.1 Business Credentials:
Provide a summary of your work as a contractor, your past experience.
Henry D’Amico has a broad history of customer service under his belt. From managing two successful restaurants, to a commercial sanitation company, executing flawless service is embedded into Los Santos Transit’s roots. Being a newly sprouted company does not effect the integration, flexibility nor ability to expand. Both divisions within the company may be separate but are specifically geared to corroborate with integration. The company has a full staff meeting each week to guarantee this integration does not become vulnerable to weakness. Each administrative role takes a dynamic approach to their role to ensure the company is ready for any obstacle. Our administrative roles have been carefully selected to verify their duties are carried forward with every shift. Currently being located in La Mesa, the company is already approved to transfer to a larger property to easily access the daily bus routes, and maximize office, parking and storage space.
3.2 Plan of Action:
Explain in detail how you plan to achieve the goals set forth in the contract. We recommend addressing all requirements explicitly mentioned therein.
Without a proper, faultless, deliberate hiring process, a company is more bound to experience an employee that could impair its reputation. Los Santos Transit will not take that risk. Each employee is put through a substantial line of questioning, and a background, drug and alcohol test. All documents that authenticate a potential new employee’s credibility are tripled checked through our administrative team to confirm a glitch-free process.
Citizens that utilize the public transportation system rely on it to arrive at their destination on time. To maintain the public transportation reputation, four efficient, dependable routes have been established to safely transport the city’s citizens and guests. Secondly, there is a limit to the number of commercial vehicles allowed on the road to decrease accidents and traffic as a whole, granting safer streets for all. Commercial vehicle drivers are selected with care and required to have exceptional experience operating the vehicles. All drivers are tested to see if their experience is adequate enough hold the title of a commercial vehicle driver even if the title has been held by the individual previously. If an employee is interested in training to eventually gain that title, they are put through a voluminous program hosted and executed by our public transportation manager. In order to gain access to this program, the employee must have been employed as a taxi driver for at least two months with an outstanding record and a recommendation from their manager. Finally, daily maintenance checks are performed on all vehicles to make sure all components are functioning correctly. Not only are the engines and bodies checked but also the inside of each vehicle to diminish risk. The entire fleet consists of a singular commercial bus, a coach bus, and five taxis.
3.2 Technical Capability:
Demonstrate your (key) employees' skills, experience of similar work and their involvement if you were to be awarded the contract.

From street to street, there isn't any road that he is not familiar with. With being in the business for so long, he has also developed great customer relationships with some developing into friendships.

3.4 Competitive Analysis:
Explain the benefits and value for money of your bid.
First and foremost, recruitment insurance funds would support wages for future employees. These funds are essential as they would prevent any internal or external financial issues. Without the funds, the director will either be forced to pay out of pocket or use company funds which could impair the business as a whole.
Recruitment is another essential factor in building a successful business. The program will require funding for the following items; Employee handbooks, training videos, hiring a technician to train troubleshooting common issues with commercial vehicles, testing documents, and sample equipment. These items will guarantee a smooth, all-inclusive, productive program without error.
With four routes already set in place, four buses will be required. The company owned bus will always be on stand-by ready for any emergencies that may occur. Shuttle buses will be used for minor parties that at the customer's request as well as Coach buses but for larger parties. During the summer and holidays, research shows that tours are a hot attraction not only to tourists, but citizens as well. To prepare, expanding the fleet will be essential to secure the high demand for the tour services. As always, the company-owned vehicle will be on standby in case of any emergencies that may occur.
