Beaver County School District- Telehandler

Beaver County School District is soliciting bids through an Invitation to Bid (ITB) for the procurement of a new or used telehandler for its Facilities Department. The primary objective is to acquire equipment that meets specified operational requirements, including an enclosed cab with heating and air conditioning capability and a 19-foot boom, with optional additional attachments such as a bucket or man box. Bidders may propose new equipment, used equipment, or multiple options to provide the district with flexibility in procurement. The evaluation criteria are weighted as follows: total proposed cost at 60 percent, proposed delivery timeline at 10 percent, and quality at 30 percent. Bidders must possess appropriate state and local licenses and maintain required insurance coverage as mandated by the State of Utah, along with certification of adequate personnel and resources to fulfill all requirements. Bid submissions must be completed by Thursday, February 5, 2026 at 2:00 P.M. (MST) through the online Bonfire System or via hand delivery in sealed envelopes to Beaver County School District at 291 N. Main Street, Beaver, Utah 84713. Public bid opening will occur on February 5, 2026 at 2:30 p.m. (MST) via Zoom, and all inquiries regarding the scope of services must be submitted through the Bonfire system or directed to Dallon Blackner, Maintenance Supervisor, at 435-421-1532 or dallon.blackner@beaver.k12.ut.us. Bidders must hold proposed costs firm for 120 calendar days following bid receipt or until purchase completion.

The ITB does not specify set-aside designations or restrictions limiting responses to particular organization types or disadvantaged enterprises. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in the procurement documentation. The district reserves the right to reject any or all bids submitted and requires that bidders acknowledge receipt of all addenda as a condition of bid acceptance. Late bids will be deemed non-responsive and excluded from consideration. No specific budget range or award value is disclosed in the available documentation, though the evaluation structure suggests cost competitiveness will be a primary consideration alongside delivery timeline and equipment quality. Vendors interested in responding should register with the online Bonfire System for submission instructions and access to any posted addenda or clarifications to the ITB requirements.
