23NC Water Tender Trailer

The Pennsylvania Game Commission's Northcentral Region is soliciting bids for two water tender trailers as part of a competitive procurement process. The solicitation requires bidders to submit proposals for two separate trailers, with specifications including DOT compliance, tandem axles, electric brakes, LED lights, and detailed technical requirements for 800-gallon and 1,025-gallon water trailer units. Bids must be submitted in US Dollars and whole dollar amounts, with delivery scheduled to the Northcentral Region office located at 1566 South Route 44 Highway in Jersey Shore, PA 17740. The bid is due on December 20, 2023, with any technical questions to be directed to Land Management Supervisor Jeffrey Mock at jmock@pa.gov or (570) 398-4744 Ext 30307. The contract will be awarded to the lowest combined bidder for both trailers, with bids required to remain firm for 60 days and include a Certificate of Origin made out to the PA Department of General Services in Harrisburg.

The procurement does not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. However, the bid documents include a Reciprocal Limitations Act requirement that gives preference to bidders offering supplies produced in Pennsylvania over those from states that provide preferences to their own in-state goods. Bidders will be required to identify the state of manufacture for each item and provide information about their residency status. While no specific budget range is detailed in the documents, the procurement is for two water tender trailers to be used by the Pennsylvania Game Commission's Northcentral Region. The solicitation does not mention incumbent vendors or existing infrastructure requirements. Interested vendors must submit complete bids that meet all technical specifications, demonstrate compliance with DOT regulations, and provide the required documentation to be considered for the contract award.
