Price form QATOW30R.xlsx

This is a price form for towing services submitted to the Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration (MDOT SHA) Centreville Shop under Request for Quote QATOW30R. The contract opportunity involves towing and recovery services for SHA fleet vehicles, trucks, and equipment over a three-year service period. The price form includes eight hourly service line items: light-duty, medium-duty, heavy-duty, and equipment towing during normal hours; the same four categories during after-hours and severe weather conditions (winter snow emergencies or hurricanes declared by the governor); and a flat fee for rotator services. Bidders must enter unit prices in Column D, with total costs calculated automatically in Column E. The quoted hours are 15 hours for light-duty, 10 hours for medium-duty, 20 hours for heavy-duty, and 5 hours for equipment services, applicable to both normal and after-hours categories, plus one flat fee line item for rotator deployment.

The contract was readvertised without small business restrictions after receiving only one bid in the initial small business set-aside round, with the potential to proceed with a single bid if necessary. All pricing must be inclusive of costs, with billing permitted from yard departure until return, provided travel time does not exceed one hour. Payment options include card payment for invoices under $5,000 without processing fees, check by mail with net 15 terms as the default, or free ACH direct deposit. Contractors must perform a portion of the towing services in-house, with limited subcontracting permitted. The price form requires bidder company information, EIN, eMMA vendor number, authorized representative signature, and contact details for the services to be performed.
