2024 F350 Accessories

The state of Illinois, through the Illinois Emergency Management Agency and Office of Homeland Security (IEMA-OHS), is seeking to procure truck bed toppers and radio mounts for 2024 Ford F-350 vehicles with 8-foot beds. Specifically, the Request for Quote (RFQ) requests quotes for two Knapheide KnapKap DHS Toppers, or equivalents, with various features and two different shelving package configurations, as well as three units of various radio mounting and related equipment. The toppers are to be installed either at the vendor's place of business or at a location in Springfield, Illinois, with IEMA-OHS providing transportation of the vehicles up to 150 miles. The RFQ specifies that all equipment must be new, unused, and free from defects, and includes a "brand name or equal" clause. The RFQ does not provide specific pricing terms, set-asides, incumbent information, or funding details, but indicates that the contract may be partially or fully funded with federal funds, and vendors must comply with applicable prevailing wage and certified payroll requirements.

The RFQ does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. It also does not provide any listed incumbent vendors or current contractors, or any existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The RFQ does not include any information on possible award values or budget ranges, but vendors must maintain comprehensive general liability, auto liability, and workers' compensation insurance coverage, and the contract may be terminated for cause or convenience, and is contingent upon the availability of appropriated funds.
