Rowing Machine

The GSA Federal Acquisition Service's Supply Chain Management General Products Branch is seeking to establish a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) for rowing machines through a Request for Quote (RFQ) issued against Multiple Award Schedule SIN 339920S. The solicitation specifically targets Concept2 RowErg Rower, Xebex Air Rower 3.0, or equivalent products that meet detailed technical specifications including adjustable pedals/straps, foldable design, performance monitoring capabilities, and a minimum 500-lb user weight capacity. Contractors must submit pricing via GSA eBuy and can choose between FOB Origin or FOB Destination terms, with a required delivery timeline of 8 calendar days after order receipt. The evaluation criteria will prioritize technical acceptability on a pass/fail basis, with past performance slightly more important than price. Responses to the solicitation must be submitted by December 12, 2024, with the opportunity originally posted on December 5, 2024.

The contract is an unrestricted acquisition with no specific set-aside designations, categorized under NAICS code 339920 for Sporting and Athletic Goods Manufacturing. The BPA will have a 12-month base period with four additional 12-month option years and a not-to-exceed value of $4.5 million. The estimated annual procurement quantity is 137 rowing machines, though no minimum order is guaranteed. Performance will be monitored through strict quality assurance metrics, including a requirement for 85% on-time delivery. The place of performance is designated as Fort Worth, Texas 76102. Successful contractors must utilize either GSA's Order Management Service Vendor Portal or Electronic Data Interchange for processing orders, and will be expected to maintain high standards of delivery and product quality throughout the agreement period.
