Bosch Cables and Kits (CHP -PSU)

The California Highway Patrol (CHP) Purchasing Services Unit has issued a Request for Quotation (RFQ) for Bosch cables and electronic data recorder (EDR) tool kits and related automotive diagnostic equipment under BU 2720 060PR5005 18153. This limited brand and model procurement requires quotations for 100 units of legacy generation Bosch cables, 100 units of new generation Bosch cables, six Bosch CDR tool kits, 20 specialty cables, six IT EDR tool kits, six Tesla EDR hardware kits, 50 adapters, and 20 accessories from manufacturers including Bosch, Hyundai, Kia, and Tesla. All products must be new and in current production, with pricing quoted on a Free on Board (F.O.B.) destination, freight prepaid basis with Net 45 day payment terms. Responses must be submitted electronically to ITS_Admin@chp.ca.gov or via facsimile to (916) 322-3155 by February 6, 2026, at 2:00 PM PST, with delivery anticipated to the CHP's Sacramento location at 601 North 7th Street. The procurement official is De Anne Campagna at (916) 843-3620 or deanne.campagna@chp.ca.gov, with backup contact Kayla Farmer. Award will be made on an "all or none" basis, and bidders must understand that quantities may vary by up to 20 percent plus or minus at the same unit price. Required documentation includes the Bidder Declaration (GSPD-05-105), Payee Data Record (STD 204), Recycled Content Certification, Conflict of Interest and Confidentiality Statement, Darfur Contracting Act certification, and California Civil Rights Laws certifications, with suppliers potentially required to provide samples or prototypes within 14 calendar days for technical compliance evaluation.

This procurement includes a five percent preference for California-certified small businesses or non-small businesses subcontracting at least 25 percent of work to certified small businesses. The solicitation explicitly restricts qualification to the specific Bosch brands and models noted, with no alternative brands or models accepted, significantly limiting the pool of eligible vendors. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in the available documentation. The RFQ does not provide a specific budget range or award value; however, the "all or none" award structure indicates that a single vendor must supply all line items at quoted unit prices. Potential bidders should note that the posted due date indicates February 6, 2026, at 2:00 PM PST, though the RFQ document references 3:00 PM PST, and clarification should be sought from the procurement official to ensure timely submission.
