BPM007069_BABA_Self-Certification.pdf

This is a self-certification document related to a contract opportunity with the Arizona Game and Fish Department (AZGFD) for the procurement of trap machine equipment and parts. AZGFD is establishing a contract for the purchase of Pat-Trap trap machines or equivalent models, along with associated parts and accessories, to be procured on an as-needed basis. The agency currently operates seventeen Pat-Trap SW Series machines and may award the contract to one or multiple suppliers or by individual line item, depending on the State's best interests. The solicitation explicitly permits equivalent products of equal quality, design, and performance to the Pat-Trap brand name specification, provided that bidders clearly identify their proposed products with sufficient technical information to demonstrate equivalency in all material respects.

A catalog discount is requested for parts and accessories as part of the bid submission. The self-certification document serves to verify the bidder's qualifications and compliance with the solicitation requirements, ensuring that proposed equipment and parts meet the State's standards for quality and performance. The procurement allows flexibility in supplier selection, enabling AZGFD to optimize value through either single or multiple vendor awards based on the evaluation of competitive bids and technical compliance with the specified standards.
