Summary

This is a Notice of Intent to Award issued by the Long Beach Public Utilities Department (LBPUD) for an Invitation to Bid (ITB) to furnish and deliver four backhoe loaders. The LBPUD received two bids for evaluation and has determined its intent to award the contract to Sonsray Machinery based on responsiveness to all questions, evaluation criteria, and requirements outlined in the ITB. The evaluation process considered all factors in the best interests of LBPUD rather than automatically selecting the lowest-priced bid. Bids were kept confidential throughout the evaluation process. The notice indicates that Bobcat of Los Angeles was disqualified during the evaluation process.

The Notice of Intent to Award does not constitute a final contract award. The awarded vendor will receive a formal contract from LBPUD, and purchases cannot commence until the contract is executed. No specific pricing information, contract term, renewal options, or funding details are provided in this notice. The document was issued on June 23, 2025, and signed by Esme Houtepen of LBPUD.
