2025 Polaris Sportsman 570 Trail & 2025 Honda SXS100M5P

The New Hampshire Department of Administrative Services, Division of Procurement and Support Services is seeking bids for two specific vehicles through Bid #151-25: a 2025 Honda SXS100M5P and a 2025 Polaris Sportsman 570 Trail. The procurement is specifically for the Department of Natural and Cultural Resources, with delivery locations set for Cannon Mt Ski Area in Franconia (Honda) and DNCR - Bear Brook in Allenstown (Polaris). Bidders must submit electronic proposals by April 23, 2025, at 10:00 AM Eastern Time, with a mandatory online bid opening via Microsoft Teams. The vehicles must be new, current model year units that meet specific environmental and performance requirements. Evaluation criteria will include lowest cost and compliance with detailed technical specifications, with the State reserving the right to award contracts to up to two vendors. Each vehicle must come with a minimum one-year warranty covering 100% of parts, shipping, labor, travel, lodging, and associated expenses.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises were explicitly outlined in the bid documents. The procurement appears open to standard commercial vendors capable of meeting the technical specifications for the two vehicles. While no incumbent vendors were mentioned, the bid emphasizes environmentally friendly product considerations and requires vendors to provide safety data sheets. Payment will be processed via ACH, with invoices submitted to the Department of Natural and Cultural Resources after successful vehicle delivery and acceptance. Though specific budget ranges were not detailed, the bid suggests a procurement value covering two specialized utility vehicles - a Honda side-by-side utility vehicle and a Polaris all-terrain vehicle - with each unit representing a significant capital investment. Vendors must demonstrate ability to deliver vehicles within 30 days of purchase order receipt, highlighting the time-sensitive nature of this procurement opportunity.
