60K GVW Dump - Plow Trucks

The State of Nevada Purchasing Division, on behalf of the Nevada Department of Transportation (NDOT), is seeking competitive pricing for NEW 60,000 GVW Dump-Plow Trucks for fiscal year 2025. This procurement is specifically for a specialized vehicle designed for summer vocational dump truck duties and winter snow plowing in mountainous terrain at altitudes up to 9,000 feet. The required vehicle must include a cab and chassis, an 8 cubic yard hopper-type V-box spreader, push frame, plow, and potential wing plow configurations. Vendors must submit comprehensive technical specifications covering every vehicle aspect, including engine, transmission, electrical systems, hydraulics, and lighting. The solicitation requires vendors to provide detailed documentation, participate in a pre-build meeting, offer factory training, and comply with extensive warranty requirements. The bid is posted on September 23, 2025, with proposals due by October 22, 2025, through the NevadaEPro online system. Bidders must follow strict submission guidelines, including completing multiple mandatory tabs, uploading required documentation, and resolving any quote validation errors.

The procurement appears to have a 5% preference for Nevada-based businesses and requires all vendors to be licensed Nevada vehicle dealers with manufacturer-authorized service centers within the state. Vendors must certify they are not debarred from federal programs and must adhere to specific Nevada Revised Statutes related to vehicle sales and regulations. The contract mandates that all equipment must be NEW, with used, refurbished, demo, prototype, or gray market equipment explicitly prohibited. While specific budget ranges are not detailed, the comprehensive specifications suggest a high-value procurement for specialized municipal transportation equipment. Successful bidders must provide current model year vehicles with factory-installed equipment, meet all state and federal safety regulations, and offer a minimum one-year warranty. The procurement also includes provisions for potential recall responsibilities and requires vendors to submit descriptive data and manufacturer specifications with their bids.
