Abstract The workshop on procurement methods for small transit vehicles, held in Indianapolis, Indiana, on November 15 and 16 was organized to provide the owners, manufactures and operators of small transit vehicles with a forum to discuss problems and progress in the procurement arena. Among the topics highlighted were the efficiency of various procurement methods, how to prepare adequate specifications, whether manufactures could meet industry requirements, and UMTA's work in guiding these processe. This document summarizes the important issues raised in each presentation and question and answer period as well as summarizing panel discussions.
