500 Gallon Engine Driven Trailer Mounted Sprayer System

The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) Southwest District is seeking vendors to supply a 500-gallon engine-driven trailer-mounted sprayer system through an Invitation for Bid (IFB) numbered IFB605SW21002202. The procurement is an as-needed/if-needed contract for a specialized piece of equipment with specific technical requirements, including a heavy gauge 304 stainless steel painted tank, a John Bean R2020 pump or equivalent, a 13 HP Honda 4-cycle air-cooled gasoline engine with electric starter, and an open-air trailer approximately 12-15 feet long with a 9,000-pound capacity. The solicitation will be awarded on a firm fixed pricing, low-bid basis, with all delivery costs included in the unit price. The bid submission period opens on June 4, 2021, and closes on June 23, 2021, at 2:00 PM CDT, with the contract period extending from the award date through June 30, 2022, and no optional renewals. Vendors must submit responses exclusively through the MissouriBUYS Statewide eProcurement System, with no paper, email, or fax responses accepted. Evaluation will focus on lowest responsive and responsible bidder meeting all technical specifications.

The solicitation strongly encourages Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) and Women Business Enterprise (WBE) participation, with specific goals of 10% MBE and 5% WBE involvement through subcontractors, suppliers, joint ventures, or other arrangements. MoDOT also provides opportunities for Service-Disabled Veteran (SDV) and Service-Disabled Veteran Business (SDVE) vendors to participate. The procurement includes cooperative purchasing provisions, allowing Missouri counties, cities, and other political entities to utilize the contract terms, though MoDOT will not be involved in those transactions. A 10% price preference is available for goods manufactured or produced in the United States under the Domestic Products Procurement Act for purchases over $25,000. While no specific budget range or award value is explicitly stated, the contract is structured for as-needed purchases, suggesting flexibility in potential order quantities. Vendors must be registered with the Missouri Secretary of State and maintain good standing with the Missouri Department of Revenue.
