About this file
This is a Pre-Bid Request for Approval of Products or Materials form issued by the Iowa Department of Transportation for RFB-2524-2026, which addresses the replacement of two 167,000 Btu/H boilers at the Rock Rapids Maintenance Garage. The form serves as a mechanism for bidders to request approval of proposed product or material substitutions prior to bid submission. Bidders must submit pre-bid substitution requests on or before March 9, 2026 at 10:00 PM CT, with the final bid response due March 17, 2026 at 1:00 PM CT. The form requires detailed specifications including manufacturer information, make/model numbers, and comprehensive supporting documentation such as product descriptions, specifications, drawings, photographs, and performance/testing data to enable proper evaluation of substitution requests. All pre-bid substitution approvals are specific to the bid for which they are submitted and do not establish precedent for future Iowa DOT procurements.
Suppliers and installers submitting approved products must certify that proposed materials are equal to or superior in all significant respects to the original plans and specifications and will perform adequately as intended. Should approved products fail to meet specifications after installation, the supplier/installer bears full responsibility for replacement or corrective measures to ensure compliance. Approval determinations are made by the Iowa Department of Transportation Purchasing Section, with notifications provided via the designated email address. The form includes checkboxes for approval decisions (approved, approved as noted, disapproved, or rejected for late submission) and requires documentation of the approval determination signature and date for official records.
