About this file

This is a Vehicle Specification Worksheet for a Request for Bids (RFB) issued by the Iowa Department of Administrative Services Fleet Services for the procurement of a 2026 Model Year Large SUV. The solicitation seeks one Ford Expedition or equivalent vehicle classified as SUV 13, specifically a large four-door AWD or 4x4 SUV with automatic transmission. The bid period runs from October 1, 2025, to October 13, 2025, with contract commencement on October 15, 2025, and contract term extending through September 30, 2026. The state permits dealers to submit 2025 model year vehicles if they can provide 2026 model pricing with confirmed availability by December 1, 2025. The specification worksheet establishes detailed minimum requirements for the vehicle, including a gross vehicle weight rating of at least 7,500 pounds, wheelbase of 120 to 125 inches, V6 or V8 engine with E85 FFV capability if available, seven-passenger seating minimum, 13-inch touchscreen radio, and comprehensive safety features including adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping system, and pre-collision assist with automatic emergency braking. Dealers must submit pricing in the yellow-highlighted field of the Excel worksheet, with prices to be delivered to the Department of Administrative Services in Des Moines.

Pricing must account for the base vehicle cost plus delivery charges to Des Moines, with dealers required to specify per-mile delivery rates for other locations within Iowa. Dealers are permitted to apply discount percentages off MSRP for optional features valued at $3,000 or less, excluding engine and powertrain options. The solicitation is restricted to car dealerships with physical locations in Iowa, with no specific small business or disadvantaged enterprise set-asides noted. The current incumbent vendor is Ed Stivers Ford, which held the previous Master Agreement 23033A for 2025 Model Year Ford SUVs. Selected vendors must provide quarterly sales reports in Microsoft Excel format and are subject to a $100 administrative fee payable quarterly to the Iowa Department of Administrative Services. The contract includes provisions for up to three additional annual extensions beyond the initial term, with payment terms established at net 60 days.

Vehicle Specification Worksheets for SUV
This Vehicle Data Sheet will be used by the dealer to calculate their cost for each of the vehicle items they intend to bid. Please notice the tabs along the bottom correspond to the outline pictured below. This provides an outline of the items that are being bid in this Vehicle Data Sheet. The price located in the yellow highlighted field in each specification will be considered the dealer's final price submission for each respective vehicle specification.

Once the dealer has entered all the pricing information into this Vehicle Data Sheet, the Dealer will submit one electronic copy of the Vehicle Data Sheet in Excel format.

For manufacturers who have had or are soon to have a 2025 to 2026 model changeover, the State will allow the manufacturer's dealers to bid the 2025 model year vehicle in this bid if the dealer can produce pricing for the 2026 model and the 2026 model will be available to order no later than 12/1/2025. No distinction will be made between model year pricing when determining the lowest price bid per vehicle category.

All vehicle specifications are designed for single vehicle pricing.
