About this file

This is Addendum No. 1 issued by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Procurement Office for Invitation to Bid (ITB) #DOT-ITB-25-9062-CA for a 2024 Blood Mobile Bus, with bid opening scheduled for March 25, 2025, at 10:00 AM local time. The addendum completely replaces the original Blood Mobile Bus Specifications with revised specifications for a custom bus chassis based on a 2024 Freightliner S2C model with specific configuration requirements, including a 25,850 GVWR, 279-inch wheelbase, Cummins 6.7L 240HP engine, and Allison transmission.

The specified bus includes multiple custom features such as specific electrical configurations, safety options, LED lighting, specialized flooring (Altro Wood Safety Flooring), and particular interior and exterior specifications. The bus is designed without passenger windows, passenger seats, or rear passenger climate controls, suggesting a specialized medical or mobile service purpose. Warranty coverage includes a 12-month/12,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty and a 5-year/100,000-mile structural warranty from Star Trans. Bidders are required to acknowledge receipt of this addendum and may be disqualified for failing to do so, with the procurement process governed by Florida Statutes.
