The manual is designed to assist smaller transit properties in the vehicle procurement process, from selecting the best vehicle for purchase to receiving the finished product. The first part of the manual includes information on the characteristics of various small vehicle types, objective criteria for choosing the best type of vehicle to meet specific needs, and representative procedures for vehicle procurement. The second part of the handbook is a compendium of optional equipment for vehicles, describing each item, its approximate cost, and providing language for use in technical specifications. The document should be of particular value to the managers of small or specialized transit systems.
