Aquatic Supplies/Vessel Support Service

The Massachusetts Department of Fish and Game, Division of Marine Fisheries (DMF) is seeking the services of professional aquatic suppliers to provide supplies, equipment, and services in the categories of Marine, Fishing, Field Equipment, and Vessel and Trailer Repairs. DMF is issuing a Request for Response (RFR) to award multiple contracts to serve the coastal regions of the Commonwealth. The initial contract term is from the date of execution through June 30, 2022, with two optional three-year renewal periods, for a total potential contract duration of up to 9 years. Suppliers will be required to provide a list of prices or discount rates for available items, as well as hourly labor rates and discount rates for parts. Payments will be made on an invoice basis for each purchase or service rendered.

This is a small procurement targeted to businesses participating in the Commonwealth's Small Business Purchasing Program (SBPP). However, if adequate SBPP capacity is not available, non-SBPP businesses may be evaluated. Supplier Diversity Program participation is also required for this opportunity. The RFR does not specify any incumbent vendors or current contractors, and no budget range is provided.
