The Request for Information (RFI) seeks to establish up to four separate contracts for 2026 model year vehicles, including various vehicle types such as compact, midsize, and full-size sedans, police interceptor vehicles, trucks (Class 1-5), vans, SUVs, and alternative fuel vehicles.

The contract term is set for 33 months, starting September 15, 2025, with a potential extension of up to 180 days.

The estimated total purchase value for the contract period is approximately $35 million, with fiscal year 26 projections including 182 vehicles for the Tennessee Department of Transportation and 608 vehicles for Vehicle and Asset Management. Authorized users include Tennessee state governmental entities, local governmental agencies, university systems, private nonprofit higher education institutions, and certain qualifying nonprofit corporations. The contract is restricted to non-luxury vehicle suppliers and will exclude sport vehicles. Bidders must have at least five years of verified fleet purchase experience and demonstrate the ability to perform service and maintenance on vehicles. Evaluation criteria will focus on the dealer's two-year fixed fleet price per manufacturer, ability to perform, conformity to specifications, and compliance with bid factors. Vendors must comply with state requirements, including the Iran Divestment Act, sales tax registration, and disclosure of potential debarment or legal issues.
