EXHIBIT 1 – QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
1. Since the majority of the uniformed employees are Bus Operators, can you please tell me
which garments the Bus Operators typically wear?
Port & Company Crewneck Sweater (gray), Port Authority Colorblock 3 in 1 Jacket
(black), Port Authority Piquet Fleece (Navy), ¼ Zip Job Shirt (black), Port Authority
Fleece Vest (gray), Cornerstone Tactical Polo (gray), Port Authority short and long
sleeve button up easy care shirts (gray), pants and shorts options, knit caps,
baseball caps, messenger bags and lunch coolers.
2. Can you please tell me what the annual allowance is? Is it by # of pieces or total cost? For
example: (3 pants or shorts, 3 shirts and 1 jacket or whatever they can buy for
$XXX.xx) Does it vary by job title?
The annual allowance is allotted by total cost and each group is allowed to spend
their allowance on whatever combination of uniforms they prefer within that total
allowance. The yearly allowance does vary by job title, for example in 2018 bus
operators were allotted $250.00, while Transit Service Officers were allotted
$300.00 and Maintenance Workers were allotted $100.00. The amount of allowance
allotted to each employee type also varies each year depending on budgetary
constraints.
3. Do you anticipate a bulk order at the beginning of the contract or will orders more likely be
spread throughout the year as garments need to be replaced?
We do not anticipate a bulk order at the beginning of the contract; orders would
likely be spread out through the year as we have new hires (groups of 4-6) or as
existing employees would like to replace their garments using their allowance.
4. Do you know an approximate percentage of garments that will need to be altered per year?
Approximately 5% or less.
