7840501, air compressor-paint truck

Pennsylvania Department of Transportation Engineering District 5-0 is soliciting bids under Invitation for Bid 6100066911 for one BOSS 205DUS JD4045 TF air compressor for a paint truck. Questions are due November 12, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. Eastern, and bids are due November 19, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. Eastern. The product must match the specifications exactly because the paint truck line systems are configured to this compressor, making this a single-model requirement.

Addendum #1, issued October 30, 2026, confirms the IFB covers this exact model and leaves all other original terms unchanged. The Scope of Work adds a Maintenance Spare Parts Kit (compressor oil filter, separator element, engine air filter element, compressor air filter element, and SCA13G shaft seal repair kit). It describes a Tier 4 diesel rotary screw compressor and lists the model as "Boss 250 DUS JD4045 T4F," which differs from the addendum's designation.

Bids must be submitted electronically through the PA Supplier Portal (www.pasupplierportal.state.pa.us), and mailed bids will not be accepted. Bids will be publicly opened and read via Microsoft Teams on November 19, 2026, and interested parties must request a meeting invitation from adefrances@pa.gov. Technical bidding issues go to the Supplier Service Center at (877) 435-7363, Option #1.

Bidders must submit the Worker Protection and Investment Certification (BOP-2201) with their bid under Executive Order 2021-06. The attached Domestic Workforce Utilization certification establishes an evaluation criterion. Contractors that do not complete and sign it receive no consideration on that criterion, and maximum consideration goes to suppliers committing to exclusively U.S. or WTO Government Procurement Agreement-eligible labor. The Iran Free Procurement Certification (BOP-1701) applies before award to goods or services valued at $1,000,000 or more. The Reciprocal Limitations form requires disclosure of each item's state or country of manufacture for contracts exceeding $10,000.

The attached insurance exhibit requires occurrence-based comprehensive general liability and property damage coverage of $250,000 per person and $1,000,000 per occurrence for bodily injury and the same limits for property damage. The Commonwealth must be named as an additional insured. Automobile liability applies where appropriate, and coverage must be in effect before work begins.
