Air Compressor Maintenance and Repair

The Suburban Mobility Authority for Regional Transportation (SMART) is soliciting competitive quotes for air compressor maintenance and repair services across three bus terminals located in Wayne, Oakland, and Macomb counties. This Request for Quote (RFQ) seeks qualified vendors to provide comprehensive preventative maintenance, inspection, and repair services for air compressor systems and related equipment. The contract will have an initial three-year term with options for two additional one-year renewals. Vendors must provide pricing for three preventative maintenance services annually at each location, covering compressors, air dryers, and oil/water separators, with an estimated 50 hours of labor per contract year. Key deliverables include providing all necessary labor, materials, travel time, filters, and equipment, with replacement parts to be new and in good working order. The solicitation requires vendors to specify hourly labor rates and parts mark-up percentages. Critical dates include a pre-quote conference on June 25, 2025, at 10:00 AM ET, a deadline for vendor questions on June 27, 2025, and the final proposal submission deadline of July 16, 2025, at 3:00 PM Eastern Time.

The RFQ does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged business enterprises. Invoicing will be conducted electronically, and all maintenance must be coordinated with SMART's Facilities Manager, who must provide written authorization for recommended maintenance work. Materials and parts for service and repair calls will be provided at cost to SMART. While specific budget ranges are not detailed in the document, the contract includes provisions for labor and parts pricing, suggesting flexibility in potential contract value. The procurement covers three specific SMART bus terminal locations, indicating a targeted regional service requirement. Vendors will need to demonstrate technical capability to service air compressor systems across multiple transportation facilities, with a focus on preventative maintenance and responsive repair services. Electronic submission of proposals and comprehensive service capabilities will be key factors in vendor selection.
