2009 Plow Shoe BidRev2.xls

This is a bid specification document for cutting edges (plow shoes) required by the State of Maine for its fleet operations across six regional locations. The procurement specifies eight distinct plow shoe products with varying quantities distributed across Regions 1-5, Caribou, and Houlton, totaling 1,201 units. Products include curb shoes, plow shoes, wing shoes, nose shoes, and blade scraper teeth, with specifications requiring compliance with AISI 1074 Standard. Items are to be shipped as needed to designated fleet service facilities in Scarborough, Augusta, Dixfield, Hancock, Caribou, and Houlton, Maine. The document provides specific contact personnel for each regional location and includes technical part numbers for ordering purposes.

The vendor must provide products free of manufacturer defects with a 30-day warranty covering proper installation and usage, with replacement at vendor expense if defects are identified. The pricing structure requires FOB Destination terms, meaning the vendor assumes all freight costs to deliver items to the specified Maine locations. The bid document does not specify unit prices in the provided sheet, suggesting this is a price-to-be-determined solicitation or a preliminary bid specification awaiting vendor quotes. Warranty terms include provisions for vendor evaluation and reporting in cases of improper or destructive use, with corrective action plans required to maintain warranty coverage.
