About this file

This is a Vehicle Specification Worksheet for the Iowa Department of Administrative Services (DAS) Fleet Services RFB 005-RFB-3094-2027, which solicits bids from in-state Dodge Ram dealerships to supply Emergency Response Vehicles (ERVs). The primary vehicle specification is a 2027 Model Year Dodge Ram Tradesman 2500 Crew Cab with a 6'4" box and 4x4 drivetrain, though 2026 model year vehicles are permissible if 2027 model pricing is provided and the vehicle is available for order no later than December 1, 2026. Bids are due October 5, 2026 at 12:00 p.m. CDT. Delivery must be made to Iowa DAS Fleet at 510 E 12th Street, Des Moines, Iowa 50319. The resulting contract will be available for use by all State of Iowa agencies and eligible political subdivisions as a cooperative-purchasing agreement. The contract term begins upon award and expires September 30, 2028, with options to renew by mutual agreement for up to two additional three-year periods. Bidders must be car dealerships with a physical location within Iowa.

The worksheet requires dealers to submit pricing for the base vehicle and all additional options in yellow-highlighted fields within an Excel format document, along with a completed RFB Criteria document. The base vehicle includes comprehensive specifications for the engine (6.4L V8 Hemi), transmission (8-speed automatic), safety features, interior and exterior components, and optional upgrades such as a 6.7L Cummins diesel engine, bed liner, tonneau cover, remote start, rear-view camera, and extended warranty. Payment terms are Net 60 days under Iowa Code 8A.514, with optional discounts available for payment within 30 days. Shipping is FOB Destination, Freight Prepaid, with delivery cost to Des Moines listed at $0.00 in the base configuration. An administrative fee of $100 per vehicle sold under the resulting contract must be paid quarterly to Iowa DAS. Bidders are required to submit quarterly sales reports in Microsoft Excel format within thirty days following each calendar quarter and must certify compliance with Iowa Executive Order 18 regarding prohibited companies.

Vehicle Data Sheets for 2027 Model Year Emergency Response Vehicle
This Vehicle Specification Worksheets 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 the Vehicle Specification Worksheets, the Dealer will submit one electronic copy of the Vehicle Specification Worksheets in Excel format along with one electronic copy of their Vehicle Specification Worksheets. Dealers will also have to submit one electronic copy of their completed RFB Criteria document.

For manufacturers who have had or are soon to have a 2026 to 2027 model changeover, the State will allow the manufacturer's dealers to bid the 2026 model year vehicle in this bid if the dealer can produce pricing for the 2027 model and the 2027 model will be available to order no later than 12/1/2026.
