737-24 Fleet Service/Maintenance Vehicles

The Angelo State University Facilities Management Department is seeking sealed proposals for the purchase of three fleet service/maintenance vehicles. The university is considering Ford F150 XL, Ford Ranger XL Supercrew, Ford Transit Connect XL Cargo Van, and Nissan Frontier King Cab S models. Bidders must provide detailed specifications, including year, make, model, exterior/interior color, warranties, fuel efficiency, engine size, and distance from the ASU campus. The university will evaluate proposals based on pricing (50%), delivery date (10%), fuel mileage (20%), availability and ease of service/warranty work (10%), and features/options (10%). Bids will be received and opened on January 9, 2024. The final contract will not necessarily be awarded to the lowest bidder, as the university will choose the vehicle that best serves their interests.

This contracting opportunity is open to all qualified vendors, and no set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond are mentioned. The university currently has six trade-in vehicles that may be considered as part of the procurement. The total award value is not specified, but the university is exempt from state sales tax, and pricing must include all applicable fees and charges. Preference will be given to in-stock units, and the contract will be awarded to the successful bidder in Tom Green County and the City of San Angelo, Texas.
