About this file
This is a No-Bid Proposal Notice and Vendor Feedback Form related to towing services solicitation by the Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration (MDOT SHA) for its Easton Shop facility in Talbot County on Maryland's Eastern Shore. The procurement seeks towing services across three categories—light, medium, and heavy duty—with pricing structured on an hourly rate basis rather than flat fees, show-up charges, minimums, mileage charges, or gasoline surcharges. The contract encompasses six line items on the price form representing the complete scope of compensation, with distinct rate structures for normal operating hours (Monday through Friday, 6:30 AM to 3:00 PM) and overtime or emergency rates applicable outside these windows or during snow storms, hurricanes, or other major weather events. Emergency rates are invoked periodically but normal rates typically apply for most service calls.
This procurement is designated as a small business reserve, prohibiting subcontracting and requiring that vendors own and register all tow trucks to their company. Bidders must incorporate all operational costs, including labor, equipment maintenance, fuel, and overhead, into the quoted hourly rates. The contract terms, response deadlines, award dates, and contract duration were not specified in this feedback form document. Pricing is the primary evaluation criterion, with vendors expected to submit comprehensive hourly rates that represent their total cost of service delivery across all three towing categories and both rate structures.
