About this file

This is a Request for Quotation (RFQ) issued by the Southwest Ohio Regional Transit Authority (SORTA) for inventory parts required to support transit operations. The RFQ, numbered 5401, solicits competitive quotes for fifty-seven line items consisting of specialized automotive and transit vehicle components, including engine parts, fuel system components, valves, sensors, seals, and various mechanical assemblies primarily compatible with Cummins ISL engines and Gillig transit buses. Quantities range from one to one hundred units per line item. The RFQ was released on July 16, 2026, with a response deadline of July 17, 2026, at 11:00 am. Responses must be submitted electronically through the e-Procurement Portal at https://procurement.opengov.com/portal/go-metro. Award will be made to the responsible bidder submitting the lowest responsive price, and the contract term is not specified in the document. No site visits or bidders' conferences are mentioned.

Pricing must be all-inclusive of freight charges and submitted through the designated e-Procurement Portal using the provided bid pricing form; quotes in alternative formats will be considered non-responsive. Bidders must specify lead times in days for fulfillment of the entire delivered quantity and note any core fees in the Notes column of the pricing table. All quotations must remain valid for thirty days from submission. If a bidder cannot supply the exact part number requested, the alternative part number must be provided in the specified format (RM#######). The document emphasizes that bidders must either submit pricing or select "no bid" for each line item and confirms that late bids will not be considered unless circumstances beyond the bidder's control prevented timely submission. Responsibility determinations will consider bidder character, integrity, absence of debarment, DBE compliance, technical capability, financial resources, past performance, and ability to meet delivery schedules.

Past failure to apply sufficient tenacity, perseverance, and effort to perform acceptably is strong evidence of non-responsibility. Failure to meet the quality requirements of a contract is a significant factor to consider in determining satisfactory performance.

12. Such other information as may be secured having a bearing on whether the bidder is responsible and has submitted a responsive bid.
