Aluminum Boat and Trailer

The Idaho Department of Fish and Game (IDFG) is conducting a Request for Quotes (RFQ #420) for the procurement of an aluminum boat and trailer, to be submitted electronically through the IPRO system. The specific procurement involves the purchase of one aluminum boat with an outboard motor and one accompanying boat trailer, with detailed specifications outlined in the administrative information document. Vendors must provide a fully burdened unit price for each item, confirm compliance with all specifications, and include an estimated delivery date. The RFQ requires vendors to submit a price sheet, signature page, and product literature as part of their response package. The solicitation is open to vendors, with quotes due by April 3, 2024, and the award will be made on an "all or none" basis to the bid deemed most advantageous to the state. The procurement process follows the State of Idaho's standard terms and conditions, with the contract being awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.

The solicitation does not explicitly indicate any set-aside designations or specific restrictions on vendor participation. No incumbent vendors are identified in the documentation, and there are no apparent limitations preventing qualified vendors from submitting responses. The RFQ requires vendors to provide certificates of insurance, including commercial general liability, commercial automobile liability, and workers' compensation coverage, with the State of Idaho and the contracting agency to be named as additional insureds. Insurance policies must meet minimum coverage limits and be issued by insurers rated A-VII or better. While a specific award value is not clearly stated, vendors must submit comprehensive pricing that includes all associated costs for the boat and trailer. The contract will include standard provisions for delivery, acceptance, invoicing, and warranty terms, with potential for termination under various circumstances including fiscal necessity or convenience.
