23SC F-550 Dump Bed re-bid

The Pennsylvania Game Commission, specifically the Southcentral Region Land Management Group, is seeking bids for a 9' steel dump body to be installed on a 2025 Ford Truck Super Duty F-550 Crew Cab chassis. This Invitation for Bid (IFB 61000XXXXX) is being processed through the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania's Department of General Services Bureau of Procurement, with the procurement targeted for Susquehanna County. The solicitation requires a comprehensive dump body solution that includes specific technical specifications such as precise dimensional requirements, steel panel construction, hydraulic hoist system, integrated lighting, safety features, a tarp system, toolbox, and towing package. The bid is structured to be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with the Commonwealth reserving the right to award by line item if deemed advantageous. Interested vendors must submit their proposals by October 24, 2025, with potential questions directed to Amanda Isett at (717) 753-0183 or Dan Covell at dcovell@pa.gov. The delivery and installation location is specified as 3798 Creek Rd, Beavertown, PA 17813.

While no specific set-aside designations or disadvantaged enterprise restrictions were explicitly mentioned in the documentation, the bid appears to be open to qualified vendors capable of meeting the technical specifications. The procurement is for a single vehicle modification with a 2025 model year timeline, suggesting this is a direct replacement or upgrade for existing Game Commission fleet equipment. No incumbent vendor information was provided in the available documents. The bid does not specify a precise budget range, though the comprehensive technical requirements indicate a professional-grade commercial vehicle modification is expected. Potential bidders will need to demonstrate technical capability to fabricate and install a specialized dump body that meets the precise dimensional, structural, and functional requirements outlined in the specification document.
