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 seeks quotations for 71 line items consisting of various mechanical and electrical components including seals, gaskets, sensors, pumps, filters, bearings, and structural parts used in transit bus maintenance and repair. Quantities range from single units to 100 units per line item. The RFQ was released on September 15, 2026, with responses required by September 16, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. via electronic submission 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 bid that meets all material requirements of the solicitation.

All pricing must be inclusive of freight charges and must be submitted through the designated e-Procurement Portal; bids received in alternative formats will be considered non-responsive. Vendors must note lead times in days required to fulfill the entire delivered quantity for each part in the NOTES column of the bid table and must disclose any core fees applicable to the parts quoted. If a vendor cannot supply a part or is quoting a replacement part number, this must be clearly indicated in the notes field using the format (RM#######). The quote must remain valid for 30 days from submission. Responsibility determinations will consider vendor character, integrity, reputation, compliance with federal and state regulations, financial resources, technical capabilities, past performance record, and ability to meet delivery schedules.

1. It was not received or properly allocated by the e-Procurement Portal due to circumstances beyond the control of the Bidder.

2.

https://procurement.opengov.com/portal/go-metro https://procurement.opengov.com/portal/go-metro

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.
