About this file
This document is a Questions and Answers (Q&A) file for Request for Quote (RFQ) 47QSWC25Q0195 for BMW Motorcycles, issued by the GSA Federal Acquisition Service. The solicitation is for five BMW R 1250 RT-P motorcycles customized to law enforcement specifications, with key clarifications provided in the Q&A document. Notable details include acceptance of wireless communication systems, confirmation that Michelin Road Pilot 5 tires are acceptable instead of run-flat tires, and verification that new Motorola APX 8500 radios will be used. The government will install helmet kits, and contractors do not need to resubmit Taxpayer Identification Numbers if already registered in SAM.gov.
The RFQ requires motorcycle delivery within 60 business days after receipt of order, with submission of quotes via email to Contracting Specialists Gary Carson and April McNellie. The quote submission deadline was extended to September 5, 2025, at 5:00 PM EST. Contractors must provide renderings of decals for government approval prior to placement, and the Buy American Act applies to the acquisition, with no issues raised regarding parts sourced from Germany. Vendors are expected to comply with the Technical Compliance Matrix detailed in Attachment 1 and submit a complete quote package with supplemental documentation.
