The State of Missouri's Department of Conservation (MDC) issued a Request for Proposal (RFPC30034901900093) seeking the procurement of boats, motors, and trailers for its facilities in Camdenton and Springfield. The solicitation specifically requests one Chaparral SSI 246 (or equivalent) boat/motor/trailer combination and four Ranger 1880MS (or equivalent) boat/motor/trailer combinations, all of which must be current model year or newer. The contract period will span one year from the date of award, with potential for two additional one-year renewal periods. Vendors were required to submit detailed proposals specifying the exact brand and model of each component, with responses due by August 16, 2018, at 3:00 PM CDT. Submission methods included electronic submission through the MissouriBUYS system or hard copy delivery to the Division of Purchasing in Jefferson City. The solicitation mandated that vendors provide unit pricing for the initial contract period and maximum prices for the two potential renewal periods. Delivery terms are Free On Board (FOB) Destination, and payment terms are Net 45 Days.

The solicitation did not include any specific set-aside designations or restrictions on vendor participation, indicating the opportunity was open to all qualified vendors. No information was provided about incumbent vendors or existing infrastructure requirements. The documents did not disclose an estimated total contract value or specific budget range for the procurement. Vendors were instructed to submit comprehensive proposals that included all line items, with no allowance for negative pricing. The procurement covered two Missouri counties: Cape Girardeau County and Greene County, with delivery locations specified in Camdenton and Springfield. While the solicitation provided detailed technical specifications for the boats, motors, and trailers, it did not outline specific evaluation criteria beyond the requirement for current model year equipment. The contract would be awarded based on the most advantageous proposal, though no explicit scoring methodology was presented in the available documentation.
