Bounce Imaging Products

The City of Fremont in Alameda County, California is seeking to procure specialized Bounce Imaging technology products through a competitive bid process (Bid #25-031). The specific procurement includes four key items: one Bounce Imaging Explorer Recce 360 Mini MK2 Ki, three Bounce Imaging Explorer UNLEASHED 4G 3.0 Kits, one HeatSeeker Thermal Pole Camera Attachment, and one Ruggedized Android Tablet. Proposals must be submitted electronically through BidNet Direct by Monday, May 26, 2025, at 2:00 p.m., with bids evaluated based on lowest monetary price while considering responsiveness, vendor responsibility, and product lead time. Bidders are required to be authorized Bounce Imaging distributors and must provide comprehensive unit pricing that includes all products, packaging, transportation, and applicable sales tax (10.25%). Vendors must also disclose potential conflicts of interest and provide references for similar contracts completed within the past three years. The evaluation will incorporate a potential 2.5% preference for local businesses, and the contract will commence on the date of final signing and continue until project completion.

The procurement is restricted to authorized Bounce Imaging distributors, with no product substitutions permitted. While specific set-aside designations are not explicitly detailed, the bid suggests potential opportunities for local businesses through the 2.5% preference mechanism. The bid includes provisions allowing the potential extension of the contract to other tax-supported agencies at the contractor's discretion. Though a specific budget range is not provided, the comprehensive nature of the procurement suggests a moderate-scale technology investment focused on specialized imaging and surveillance equipment. Vendors must be prepared to comply with city regulations and potentially obtain a local business license. The contract offers flexibility for potential future expansions, with the successful bidder having the option to extend services to additional governmental entities. No incumbent vendors are specifically mentioned in the documentation, indicating this may be a new procurement or replacement of existing technology infrastructure.
