Aerial Lift Truck

The State of Nevada Purchasing Division, on behalf of the Nevada Department of Transportation (NDOT), is seeking competitive pricing for a new Aerial Lift Truck. The equipment must be a VERSALIFT, Model VST-47-N aerial lift with a 47-foot telescopic boom and 52-foot working height, installed on a new truck chassis. The successful bidder will be required to provide delivery, installation, and training for the equipment, which will be used across multiple jurisdictions within Nevada, including Elko County. Detailed requirements for the truck, cab, aerial lift, service body, and installation are provided. A pre-bid meeting is required prior to manufacturing to confirm all specifications, and the contract will be awarded to a single vendor. The bid submission deadline is July 10, 2024.

The contract opportunity includes preferences and set-asides for Nevada-based businesses, businesses owned by veterans with service-connected disabilities, and businesses employing inmate labor. The award will go to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder based on factors such as location, item quality, total cost of ownership, conformance to specifications, and delivery dates. The contract may be awarded for up to two years, with possible annual extensions. Funding requirements and sources are not explicitly stated, but the solicitation seeks competitive pricing for the new equipment.
