About this opportunity

The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LACMTA) is soliciting quotes for a bushing–wobble flex plate, gear box component (METRO P/N 172200) with quotes due September 3, 2026, under a small business prime set-aside restricted to METRO-approved Small Business Enterprises (SBE) only.

The component is a single-source specification: Modus Advanced Inc., part number MR-200-9577, with no substitution permitted. Respondents must quote price, lead time, and part number at the solicitation header level under "Note to Buyer"; failure to provide all three elements renders the quote non-responsive.

Award will be based on best value to LACMTA weighted across price, lead time, and past performance. Delivery must include the purchase order number and part number on packing slips; multi-pallet shipments require individual packing slips per pallet. Deliveries to the Central Maintenance Facility (CMF) must conform to 46×46×42 pallet dimensions or face rejection. Quote validity must extend 60 days from submission.

Questions or requests for approved equals must be submitted at least three business days before solicitation close (by August 31, 2026). The part is exempted from California sales and use tax under rail car and component parts provisions; supporting documentation is included in notes and attachments. Pricing submission occurs through iSupplier.
